Neuro Priming for Peak Performance
Neuro Priming for Peak Performance is a guidebook that provides a fresh, unique pathway to improving tennis skills through customized mental recordings to review and rehearse solutions for competitive performance. Neuro priming identifies the causes of an athlete’s anxiety and pin-points specific match situations and pre-sets their solutions. The visualization process is an essential off-court form of personalized training. Performing at peak performance level requires the athlete to be confident and able to adapt when things go astray. In competitive matches, the athlete who has their pre-set contingency plans has superior confidence in their problem-solving ability. Neuro priming is one of an athlete’s greatest allies when it comes to grooving motor programs, strategic plans and defenses against performance anxieties.
Preparing for Pressure
Preparing for Pressure was written to provide solutions for the vast majority of tennis athletes that are able to thrive on the practice court only to wilt under game-day pressure. Navy Seals say “We don’t rise to the occasion…we fall to the level of our training.” In tournament pressure the same holds true. Competitive tennis is a game of “keep away” not a game of “catch.” Players would be wise to practice in the manner they’re expected to perform versus simply hitting. This book assists athletes, coaches, and parents in assembling the software tools and the customized preparation needed to perform at one’s peak potential at crunch time.
