Sports Psychologist Bay Area Stanford helps top Ice Skater to Peak Performance with Mental Training

Dr. JoAnn — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 22:34:13 +0000

As Sports Psychology coach in SF Bay Area Stanford , I recently worked with top Ice Skater Kira with Peak Performance and Mental Toughness Training for her International invitation only competition in Belgium. I made Kira a series of custom MP3 peak performance coaching audios, created specifically for her needs. Even though she took 19th place in the short program, she rebounded and took 4th place in the long program, giving her an 8th overall placing in this prestigious global skating event facing top competition. Kira used her sports psychology and mental training techniques before and throughout her performance to stay calm and perform her best even in this high pressure elite event. I love working with athletes in a wide variety of sports – tennis, equestrian, golf, triathletes, runners, etc to perform their best. Congratulations to Kira – you are an amazing sports psychology success story!

He really understands what athletes need, because he is one.

Sports Performance Psychology Tips for Athletes and Coaches

Sports Psychology Performance Training Tips

Want to know how you can create Your Performing Edge and reach your goals faster, easier, and get the results you want? Here are my top 10 tips to help you build new motivation, confidence and major breakthroughs in your training and in your life.

10. POSITIVE IMAGES: Use your mental images throughout your event or workout to create feelings of speed and power. (e.g., If you’re walking or running and you come to an unexpected hill visualize a magnet pulling you effortlessly to the top). Use visualization before, during and after your training to build confidence and new motivation.

9. POWER WORDS: Make positive self-statements continually. Be aware of your negative thoughts early on. Don’t fight with them; simply acknowledge their presence, and then substitute positive power words. (e.g., When you’re thinking: “This hurts too much, I want to lie down and die”; say to yourself: “This feeling is connected with getting healthier and doing my absolute best”).

8. PRESENT FOCUS: Practice being in the present moment. Be Right On – Right Here – Right Now. Remind yourself to stay in the here and now. Let past and future events fade into the background. Remember, the only moment we can do anything about is the one we’re in right now.

7. ADVANTAGE: Use everything in the workout to your advantage. For example, if another person passes you, tuck in behind and go with his or her energy for as long as possible. You may catch a “second wind” and be carried on to a personal record.

6. CHUNKING-GOALS: Focus on your immediate target. Break your training goals down into small, manageable pieces and begin to focus only on the first portion, not the entire workout (e.g., Say to yourself: “I’m just relaxing and getting my rhythm during the first mile, or the first workout session”).

5. BODY SCAN: Pay close attention to your tension level and training form. Do a body scan while working out and relax your tight muscles frequently. Ask yourself: “Are my shoulders and neck relaxed; how does this pace feel; how much energy is left in my legs?”

4. PAIN AS EFFORT: If you have “good pain” that is not seriously damaging your body, just shift attention to your breathing or cadence of movement, and let the discomfort fade into the background. You can also use the pain as feedback. Register it not as pain but as effort level. Say: “Now I know exactly how hard I’m working. I know how this pace feels. My body is doing what it should be doing.”
