Saw that Missouri (Pat Ivey - Head Strength and Conditioning Coach and Dr. Rick McGuire) hosted a clinic on developing the mental aspects of athlete development. Although I did not attend (hope they have it in the future so will be able to make it), we have used many of the ideas/concepts/resources put out by these two and others. Everyone loves to talk about the mental aspects of training, however I wonder how often we are just giving it lip service. Or do we strategize, research, exchange ideas and work on this component like we would when installing a new play/scheme or new training protocol? I am as guilty as anyone when it comes to this, it often seems very subjective and hard to see the results during off season or summer training.
Below is information we covered on visulization last off season. We used 5 minutes before workout each day to cover several topics. If you would like information on the other topics let me know. Email me a message at coachjburk@sbcglobal.net or send me a message on twitter @coachjburk
Some great resources
