Stress Control Video (For Athletes) by Marie Dalloway Produced by Performance Media |
| In pressure conditions, athletes frequently operate outside of their quality energy state. They may become flat and operate below their peak level. Or, they may become overstressed and in a state of too much energy and activation.
In contrast, top performers in sports under conditions of pressure operate in a peak stress state. Top achievers experience the pressure as challenge and they move into their peak stress state, the energetic state of activation and intensity at which they perform their best.
Athletes can learn to control their stress level. Stress control is accomplished by learning mental methods to regulate stress level even under pressure conditions.
The video shows athletes learning the necessary tools for adjusting stress level. The athletes learn relaxation methods for decreasing stress and psyching-up procedures for increasing the stress level. |
