Mental Coaching for TENNIS
Overview the ‘Mental Fitness’ Coaching System
• Manage your energy : global energy - three batteries – mind & body interaction
• Making waves : balance stress and recovery – oscillation failure (over- & under-training)
• Performer skills : the Performance Triad – the Internal Positive State
• Stress is the stimulus for growth : cycles that toughen - positive pressure
The ‘3R’ training rule
1. Reinforcement training pre-competition
• Mental Reinforcement : set clear goals and priorities, daily mental training
• Emotional Reinforcement : the language of emotion, listen to feelings
2. Resistance training under pressure (during competition)
• Mental Resistance : positive thinking – self talk control - rituals of success
• Emotional Resistance : tracking negative feelings – relaxation technique
3. Recovery after competition
• The psychological satisfactions and the key factor of humour in mental recovery
• The importance of ‘Social interaction’ (family & Friends) in emotional recovery
Tests during the mental coaching sessions
• ‘Energy Audit’
• ‘Stress-Recovery Monitoring’
• ‘Competitive Personal Profile’ under pressure (Real Self vs Virtual Self)
