Purpose of Mental Sport Training Guide

The purpose of Mental Sport Training Guide, is to develop an understanding of the fundamental principals of mental training in sports. The working guide I have devised are designed to help improve the overall mental toughness and to develop the skills necessary to build upon one’s mental strength.



This guide has been divided into 7 sessions: Education and Information Gathering, Goal Setting, Relaxation, Imagery, Self-talk, Focus Plans, Final Planning & Warp-up. Although each session is independent to each other, but you will find that each one follows a similar style and format. The formats are as follow:

1. Discussions and Conversations – a brief review of previous session; except for session 1.
   
   
2. Discussions of the objectives of each session – overall expectation of each session.
3. Introduction of each topic – Define and explain the topics and how it is relevant to one’s normal practices.
4. Applicability & Practicality – The purpose of worksheets and practical exercises created or presented is to raise Lee’s awareness of the different psychological interventions, and to enhance one’s overall performances.
5. Specific tasks or assignment designed to give one 1^st hand experience in examining with the psychological concepts.
