Thank you, man. For the reminder.

First step to becoming an elite athlete is loving the sport. You need motivation and hardwork. These simple steps will lead you to becoming one of the greatest.

@Zachariya Un u Said that those simple steps Will lead you to one of the greatest? No, its not debatable..i study för sport psychologist, i know what I talk about when it comes to genes, sports etc.. for example.. just so u understand what I mean.. reaction time cant be enhanced because its innate, you can ofcourse train you reaktion pattern and train the muscles to do some movement faster, such as in fotball.. but fotball is such a complex sport and every game is different, its very hard to train every aspect of that game or enhance your reaction time when it comes new situations on the pitch.. Only the same situation can be trained and therefor it looks like you have trained your reaktion time, but you havent.. You only train for that specific situation

Dana Ali First there is a big gap between an elite athlete, and being one of the greatest. Many pro athletes get to where they are just based on physical(size) attributes with some athleticism. Great athletes, the best in their sport have everything in place. There is lots involved. First off you need to define elite. People these days are using the word elite in youth sports. Does elite mean better than most at your level of competition or in your age class? Is it being a pro athlete or to be elite do you have to be at the very top of your sport playing professionally? I personally don’t believe the word elite belongs outside the realm of pro sports. Use promising or good or up and coming or whatever but elite is a small group. Then super elite is the very best of a particular sports’ players. Yes this takes genetics, uncommon passion, hard work, good coaches, luck plays a role as well. Sometimes injury just kills a promising athlete’s potential career. But genetics must be in place for sure. And it’s not just the physical but the mental and emotional make-up of the player. The awareness, maturity and willingness to adapt to situations and problems, to improve and over-come and keep pushing. The willingness to live with discomfort and pain, and the willingness to sacrifice many personal or family events. It’s way beyond a job. It’s a fanatical purpose to specialize in what you are striving for.But I do believe that the physical genetics of great elite athletes plays a huge role in how much passion that player will have for the sport. It’s much easier to be motivated when you are bigger, faster or stronger than your peers.

Playing football in hs I was terrible as a freshman and sophomore. I began to train and actually watch highlights of some smaller quicker players in college and the nfl. Studying their moves I would zone in so much that I would be moving my body without even noticing. My junior year I advanced so much I got most improved and it wasn’t due to a growth spurt or anything genetic. Visualization helped me greatly and I didn’t even notice it.

Lmao this about to be my life story

A warm and friendly man delivering beautiful and stirring stories to illustrate a profound truth!

Love how honestly and earnestly he delivers his stories. You’ll notice little hiccups that make him even more genuine. Loved the message and the delivery. Great job.

The golf story was great. I found myself playing air tennis during the pandemic [I've never played better] and found that when I stepped on the court over the summer my movements/ strokes were on point. Wild stuff.

Best product placement ever.

I would like to bring some clarity to some of the discussions and reference the study quoted "Innate gifts do not determine success" The study is just not about athletics, we all have natural gifts like singing, acting, writing, being a carpenter or being a surgeon. What the message is elite athletes are able to do something we can all learn from that is "deliberate practice" and the 3 principles that force themselves out of their comfort zones. - not just hard work. I think you all can think of elite athletes not blessed with overwhelming gifts or genetics but are elite and compete at the highest levels. Can we all not learn from them and develop our own natural gifts.

Really like this message of vision Thank you

He's not lying I do that...i do the visualization in Basketball...i be thinking where the spot I'd like to get to then imagine what Moves I'll use to get by you...especially 1v1...i used to play every single day in elementary espically from 4th to 6th grade

yes! that is some fundamental and universal concept of nature.

Very good.

Certainly genetics matter, but I see a lot of guys with good genetics playing pickup at the Y. Elite athletes make it further because of the the characteristics he describes.

Visualization could be effective to improve our performance regardless of fields. I will give it a shot because we never know unless we try. In addition, deliberate practice requires a clear goal, concentration, feedback and getting out of confort zone. I try to practice something in my discomfort zone.

was reading up on Secretariat - It's got an account that the horse was noted for being exceptionally well-balanced, a big, powerful horse described as having "nearly perfect" conformation and stride biomechanics. So it's not completely training and visualisation... he horse was a freak also..

Based on the times Sham was the second fastest horse of the century. Any other year a triple crown winner. Both horses had hearts twice the size of a normal thoroughbred, around 20 lbs.

Awesome story about the golfer

Very interesting

I think it's true what this man says. But I think the very first thing you need, before even doing any sport or starting in any activity, is believing you can!! Because if you believe you can improve and be successful, then you will be willing to do the hard work, and will do it... And you will also do it easier.... Whereas if you believe there's no chance, then you will fell more lazy, less motivated and will practice less.... And then you wi have bad results. Thiese kind of talks have the amazing effect of reminding us that we can and that there are ways to achieve success!!?

To be a elite you need a balance with genetics (mentaliy and body) and environment (way of life, diet, relationships, experiences), and to complicate more, genetics determines the actions that will influence the athlete's environment. In the end it's all related.

I know some people won’t see this comment but it’s ok, I am a 15 year old boy from New Jersey and I played football from the age of 9-12, football has always been my favorite sport and it helped me get my mind off of the bad things that was going on in my life, from age 2-12 I lived with my dads babymother not even my own mom and my dad would only come around once a week or once every two weeks, I had to share a room with my two half brothers one is 20+ years older than me and one is 2 years older than me, whenever we would argue my brother would say go live with your mom but I couldn’t because my dad had custody of me but I never lived with him I was only allowed to see my mom every two weeks, when I turned 12 I got to live with my mom and I’m still living with her but while living with her bad things have also happened in my life, like getting kicked out with my mom from my stepmoms house and other things, also when my mom got custody of me I had to stop playing football because my stepmom said it was too expensive now for the past 3 years I’ve been out of shape and I always get talked down on and I just feel unmotivated and I feel like I have no support and no stability in life, Also I started smoking weed, at first I thought I wouldn’t get addicted and I thought I would be able to control it, but i wasn’t. I’ve been smoking for the past 8-9 months and I don’t wanna keep smoking but it’s an addiction now, I can’t go a day without smoking, if I don’t smoke I will be aggravated all day. Weed had caused eating problems for me also I can’t eat without smoking first. And I have a problem with staying consistent I try to get in shape but I’m so inconsistent I will work out one day of the week and then the other 6 I just lay down or play video games because of quarantine. Also I’m 5’9 and I only weigh 118.1lbs and it’s sad. I want to get back to my old self and get back in shape because I want to play football again and go off to college and play my dream has always been to make it to the NFL. I feel so bad about my self and I’m insecure and I wish I wasn’t and I wish I had better self confidence. I just feel like a FAILURE and I know I shouldn’t say that about my self but it’s just how I feel 😓. I’m tired of crying and thinking about my past, and my insecurities, and other bad things in my life I just want to do good in school and play football and move on and be happy...

Start running and doing Bodyweight training. Stay hydrated. Eat regular meals and get lots (at least 8 hours) of sleep every night. Consistently. Then you will be ready for football or whatever else you decide to do. It’s up to you. When you start feeling right from all those good things, you may not need weed anymore….

He was a bit clumsy with some things he said but his main message is basically correct. Olympic gymnastics coach been saying these things for years. It blows the mind to learn how difficult any gymnastics training is, let alone be capable of elite level. They’ve been advocating visualisation as an important was of training for yrs & also, it’s not “practice makes perfect” but “perfect practice makes perfect”.

You need two things to be an elite athlete in your sport: 1.) Natural born talent. 2.) Motivation/drive. There are plenty of examples of natural born talent that did not have the drive/motivation to reach the elite levels. There are also plenty of examples of athletes with motivation/drive that overachieved but did not reach elite level.

How to use visualization if you are a lng distance runner?

@thedudeabides3930

3 жыл бұрын

You kind of do it while you're running. Self talk is good for runners. "You can do it, c'mon, relax, you got this, rhythm," etc. Kind of visualizing finishing the workout at good rhythm, whatever you're doing that day. Roadwork, track, hills, trail, accelerations. You can visualize finishing these workouts while you're doing them and talk yourself through finishing well. For racing, you can really visualize the race, knowing what you want your splits or mile times to be. Lie in a dark room and picture the course you'll be running. Print it out, look at the map, go walk or drive the course, run it once and then adjust your thinking, then go back on race day and do it! Good luck.

What about if you have aphantasia?

Reminded me of the Sherlock Holmes movies!

I figured he'd say "an addiction to winning".

The only problem with Secretariat was finding headphones big enough for the biofeedback sessions.

You can have all the genetics in the world, but if you don't have the confidence or work ethic to back it up then it wont matter. Hard work can trump genetics any day, "you can be whatever you want" is played out but true nonetheless, FIFA : Messi, 5'7 they told him he was too small,NBA Isaiah Thomas, 5'8 they told him he was too short, Boxing, Mike Tyson 5'11, they told him he was too small to become heavyweight champion, RUGBY, Damien M. 5''10 160lbs, They told him he was way too small to play professionally and now plays for the best rugby team in the world. I can keep going on but the old "you need genetics to succeed" rhetoric is pretty much an excuse to not work hard. .
