Sports Psychology: Mental Training to Improve Your Athletic Performance (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Sport psychology is a discipline that arises at the point where medicine, psychology, and sport itself meet. This therapeutic model is based on research, theory and practices to improve performance in both professional and amateur sports environments. Sport psychology researchers work to understand how psychological factors can influence motor performance and how physical activity affects human psychological development. Sport psychology is also interested in understanding how social and psychological interventions affect the well-being of athletes, teams, coaches, parents, and all types of individuals who engage in physical activity.

Sport psychology addresses a wide range of issues related to athletics, exercise, and fitness. Areas of interest for sport psychologists include, but are not limited to:

• Helping athletes increase and maintain maximum performance.
• Managing stress and anxiety in performance.
• Managing mood and emotions (anger, frustration, fear) that may arise during training and competition.
• Helping athletes cope with the mental challenges that come with long-term physical injuries.
• Helping people enjoy their sport or exercise program more.
• Promoting positive personality traits such as leadership, resilience, self-confidence, cooperation, and determination.
• Evaluating the effectiveness of training techniques.
• Helping people develop their social skills.
• Providing advice to athletes, parents, coaches, or other staff members.

Sport psychologists teach athletes effective methods to increase their motivation, sharpen their concentration and improve their performance. However, the motivation and concentration strategies that are commonly used to help athletes are extrapolable and applicable to many other disciplines, such as medicine, politics, or business. The most common techniques taught in sport psychology sessions include goal setting, self-talk, visualization, and many others that will be discussed throughout this book.

This comprehensive guide delves into the mental strategies and techniques used by elite athletes to excel in their respective fields. From visualization and goal-setting to managing anxiety and maintaining focus, this book provides a roadmap for achieving your full potential.
