How To Have Effortless Speed in Races
New this week, I’m introducing a video series called “Mindset for Sports: Case Studies in Sports Psychology.”
In this sports psychology case study series, you’ll learn about the challenges and mental training solutions of real life athletes I’ve worked with to improve their mental game (the names have been changed for privacy).
In my first case study, you’ll learn about a club swimmer named John. John is a 15-year-old who wants to qualify for a national championship. John’s biggest challenge was not performing in meets as well as he was capable of in practice. In other words, his race times were slower than his practice times.
Watch the video below to hear what Dr. Cohn has to say about Having Effortless Speed in Races.

The Fearless Athlete
For the last two decades, I’ve been working with athletes and helping them optimize their physical ability by teaching them the secrets of top performing athletes. Now, you too can learn how to regain that child-like fearless attitude.
Mental toughness is what separates the winner from the loser in any competition. Champion athletes train hard in practice, perform without fear in competition, and trust their skills in crunch-time.
The Fearless Athlete program is ideal for any athlete that wants to overcome fear of failure and uncover inhibiting perfectionistic traits; or for any coach or parent who wants to teach athletes to perform with trust and freedom in competition.
