You are AMAZING. I mean we don’t know you personally, BUT you are reading this article, so that is a pretty good indication that you have impeccable taste…Good for you!

Important matters of discussion:

• An interesting study we found for you, self-affirmed athletes had decreased levels of claimed self-handicapping

• Do you remember Michael Phelps? (Kinda a big deal in the Olympic circles) He uses affirmations, a lot, no seriously, A LOT

• Since someone famous uses affirmations, we have some for you at the end, you know, just in case you want to try some too…

Training in Vain? Don’t Let Your Thoughts Get the Better of You

Are you an athlete who's always making excuses for why you can't perform your best? Well, a study in the Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology has some news for you – it's all in your head!

Here's what the researchers found:

🏋️‍♀️ Athletes with low physical self-esteem are more likely to claim handicaps that could affect their performance (like blaming a bad workout on a headache or sore muscles).

🧠 But, when athletes were given a self-affirmation intervention (basically a pep talk for their self-worth), they were less likely to make excuses and more likely to perform at their best.

🤸‍♀️ So, if you want to train like a champ, start by believing in yourself! And coaches, take note – helping your athletes boost their self-esteem could lead to better performance on the field.
