The Champion's Mind

Pages : 290
Book Description
Even among the most elite performers, certain athletes stand out as a cut above the rest, able to outperform in clutch, game-deciding moments. These athletes prove that raw athletic ability doesn't necessarily translate to a superior on-field experience—its the mental game that matters most. Sports participation—from the recreational to the collegiate Division I level—is at an all-time high. While the caliber of their games may differ, athletes at every level have one thing in common: the desire to excel. In The Champion's Mind, sports psychologist Jim Afremow, PhD, offers the same advice he uses with Olympians, Heisman Trophy winners, and professional athletes, including: • How to get in a "zone," thrive on a team, and stay humble • How to progress within a sport and sustain long-term excellence • Customizable pre-performance routines to hit full power when the gun goes off or the puck is dropped With hundreds of useful tips, breakthrough science, and cutting-edge workouts from the world's top trainers, The Champion's Mind will help you shape your body to ensure a longer, healthier, happier lifetime.

Pages : 88
Book Description
Athletes who want to be great cannot rely on physical talent alone. The mission of Fully Equipped Athlete is to equip athletes with specific tools to help them unlock their full potential. The 10 tools I developed over my career that formed The Fully Equipped Playbook helped me go from a struggling high school player, to seven seasons in Major League Baseball. I guarantee once you become Fully Equipped, you will be ready to take your game to the next level!I was that kid who played outside until called for dinner. I loved and played every sport, but there was just something special about baseball. I knew early on it was my true passion and I set out to be the very best version of myself. This was a series of trial and error stories. I came to realize that hitting more balls and lifting more weights wasn't the answer for me. To achieve greatness, I knew I needed to seek and acquire tools I felt were essential in my development as a well rounded person and player. So, that's what I did. I became OBSESSED with learning ways to improve. It started with nutrition, and finding ways to fuel my body for success. It wasn't an overnight success either. Nutritional training soon turned into mental training, and functional physical training specific to baseball. If it could help me get to the next level, I was all in.I feel blessed to say I'm a 7 year veteran of Major League Baseball. It's something I am very proud of. Of course I would have loved to play 20+ years, but it wasn't in the cards, and I'm at peace with that. When I sit back and reflect on what I could have done differently, I can honestly say there's nothing. I gave my all every single day and earned everything I was able to achieve. My scholarship to the University of Virginia, my promotions in the minor leagues, my call to the show, my role as a player in the bigs. I worked for literally everything. Today I'm better for it. I'm grateful for the demotions and the promotions. I'm grateful for the strike outs and the home runs, for the hits I got robbed of and the ones that blooped in. I'm grateful for the losses and the wins, the struggles and the triumphs, the successes and failures. I'm grateful for the joy and the tears, and for the beginning and the end. I'm grateful for all of that because now I have the experience and knowledge to pass onto you.The Fully Equipped Playbook was designed from the ground up to give you a comprehensive breakdown of the tools that I have developed and used to achieve my goals, and how you can use them to achieve yours.
