We all know that sport is 90% mental and the rest is physical. Why then do we spend most of our time focusing on the physical side of training, vs the mental? Just like our bodies, our minds need to be trained.
The mind-body connection is a very powerful one – for everything we think in our minds, our bodies have a reaction.
We are absolutely thrilled to be working with Grant Giles and Christie Sym from SportSSupports – both experts focusing on the psychology and mental side of sports training. As successful professional-level triathletes, Grant and Christie have experience in what it is like to overcome their own mental training challenges – which has led them on a path of intense study in the field of psychology. Both are now leading endurance coaches for swimming, running and triathlon.
Join us for our 6-week online webinar, ‘Mental Training for Athletes’, where we will guide you through the live and interactive sessions. Engage in the webcasts via the chat facility – ask questions, make comments. You also have the option to remain anonymous. Each session is recorded for future viewing, so you will be able to go back and watch the sessions over and over.

“When the gaps opened up to the leaders I was able to close the gap by tuning into my body. I was able to react without panic. I was able to endure a lot more pain because I could let it be there without any mind resistance.”
Tim Berkel, Professional Triathlete, (1st place, Ironman Cairns 2016)
