Phases of Mental Coaching with Athletes

As a mental game coach, your success depends on how well your athletes can apply what you teach them. In this video, I discuss the steps I take from awareness to application.

My #1 challenge as a mental coach is helping my athletes apply what they learn to practice and competition. Athletes can usually understand the concepts of refocusing, proactive self-confidence, and preshot routines.

However, I find a huge divide between the conceptual strategies in sports psychology and athletes’ ability to act on it or apply to competition.

Watch the video below to find out how to help your athletes get the most from mental training…
