    Make a vid on the psychological aspect of why rma just doesn't lose even if odds are against them it almost feels like they were just lucky but i think their mentality is the reason why, and the refree maybe just joking 😄

    You will know yourself best - some athletes do best when 'locking in' and being more serious. Others need to just be pure relaxed/chill. Think about your best performances in the past and try to create that vibe/energy 🤝

  • @SamMartinPeakPerformance
    @SamMartinPeakPerformance10 сағат бұрын

    Was always interested in it growing up after trying things in my own athletic career. Then studied psychology at uni for both undergrad and Masters - more on the psychology of high performance in general. Overtime got more and more drawn to the sports side again Good books - The Chimp Paradox - Steven Peters The Pressure Principle - Dave Alred The Inner Game of Tennis - Time Gallwey Hopefully you think my channel gives more than enough to learn about sports psych 😅

    To be honest that's why a lot of high performers have some sort of antisocial characteristics. Because there are some of them who doesn't even feel shame or fear and they are impulsive so they don't really have to think about going through the motions. Yet, I agree mostly with the solutions you offer and you are right ín the lack of preparation part.

I listened you mentioned athletes need to be grateful and I thought a whole video maybe a nice option on cold hard truths.

    Sorry for the questions but I also have a major game tomorrow and on your "How to Mentally Prepare for a Sports Match or Event (ULTIMATE Guide)" it says that 1 day before you should prioritize rest and take your mind of your sport but my mind again keeps saying that not training means I'm letting my standards drop.

    Follow the steps in the standards video again. You need to reprogram your mind surrounding training and recovery. You know what's best for you but you've got to do better in convincing yourself to believe it and be at peace with it.

    Great video, players of any sport especially the younger ones need to get the idea of being the "best" out of their heads because it can and will stagnate any growth/ improvement, ofc we will all tell ourselves lies but the difference between the ones that continue growing is that they realize that they are being delusional. Like myself, I sometimes tell myself I don't have to worry about who I play but I instantly realize how stupid that thought is and erase it. Thank you for the great video. I will be going on vacation in like 2 days and won't be back till like mid-August so my comment streak will be over but I will be sure to catch up on new videos you put out when I get back 🤣thank you for all the informational videos and have a great summer.👍
