If you’re interested in the mental side of sport performance, this is the podcast for you. Whether you’re an athlete, a coach, a sport psychology professional, or even just a sports fan, Dr Pete Olusoga, along with a series of expert guests, will answer all the questions you could possibly have about the role of the mind in sport performance.
Is there such a thing as a winning mindset and if so, where can I get one? Why do we get nervous, and what should we do about it? What’s the deal with mindfulness?
Dr Pete – with the help of some special guests – will ask and answer questions like these, exploring what the research says, and highlighting lessons from sport psychology that you can use on and off the field.
