Book excerpt: THE ONLY SPORTS PSYCHOLOGY WORKBOOK THAT'S EXCLUSIVELY DESIGNED FOR SWIMMERS TO BUILD MENTAL TOUGHNESS AND BOOST THEIR ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE Swimmers hear it all the time... "Swimming is 90% Mental, and 10% Physical" "It's All in Your Head" "The Only One that Can Stop You is You" "You have to be Mentally Tough!" But what exactly do those sayings mean??? Without something concrete, it's difficult for players to understand what it specifically takes to have a mental approach primed for success. And rather than have a debate with someone who knows nothing about mental training or sports psychology... or read about theories and mental hacks that may or may not work off some random website...why not use a detailed, interactive, and engaging workbook that shows and teaches athletes how specific Sports Psychology concepts directly impact their performance in the swimming pool? That's exactly what you've found here! Through 10 Dynamic Exercises... we take athlete's on a journey through the Most debilitating Mental and Emotional Obstacles faced by the Vast Majority of Competitors including: -Decreased Levels in Motivation -Lack of Goal-Setting Capability -Suppressing Unwanted Thoughts -An Inability to get "In a Zone" -Experiencing Overwhelming Pre-Match Jitters, Nerves, and Anxiety -Overcoming Serious and Debilitating Injuries -Zero Formal Education of Necessary Mental Skills such as Mental Imagery and Self-Talk -Swimming without Confidence -Not Being Able to Focus when it Matters Most When Athletes Suffer and become Victim to one or multiple issues mentioned above...it becomes Incredibly Difficult for them to maintain a positive frame of mind not only in sports but in life in general. And unfortunately in society today all athletes are under the spot light as they are judged by many of their friends, family, and peers by the level of success they have in the pool, which makes it absolutely crucial for athletes to be mentally tough and resilient. Thus, after completing our workbook athletes will undoubtedly be equipped with the Mental Tools to: 1. Develop Supreme Confidence in their Skills and Abilities to Flourish 2.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The amount and intensity of training a subject enters into will impact athletic performance. Previous studies have demonstrated that fitness and fatigue achieved during training will impact performance. This study compared the subject's performance in time trials to the subject's level of fitness minus the level of fatigue (Fit-Fat) as calculated for each subject. Twelve male and twenty-four female swimmers (n = 36) volunteered to participate in eleven weeks of varied intensity and duration training sessions while performing 100 yard time trials at the end of each training phase. Subjects' percent improvements on the time trial (NormTT) were compared to the Fit-Fat of each swimmer during each training phase. At the end of the seven week general endurance phase (GETT) a 0.205 correlation was observed between the two variables with p = 0.229. The increased loading phase (ILTT) yielded a 0.159 correlation with p = 0.355 while the decreased loading phase (DLTT) yielded a 0.201 correlation with 0 = 0.254. Subjects averaged during the GETT a Fit-Fat of -47.417and a 2.563 percent faster NormTT. Average values during the ILTT were Fit-Fat of -80.028 and a 1.825 percent faster Normr1T' and during the DLTT a Fit-Fat of 220.861 with a 4.260 percent faster NormTT. Mean NonnTT for the DLTT proved to be significantly faster than the mean NormTT for the GETT and ILTT (p

Download or read book The Influence of Training Load on Performance and Psychological Variables in Female Collegiate Swimmers written by Jacquelyn A. Nagle and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's abstract: Overtraining has become a very important topic in athletics over the past few decades. Resulting from an imbalance between training stress and recovery, the manifestation of overtraining is unique to each individual, with deviations in physiological, psychological, and performance variables. Regardless of the overwhelming amount of research, there is a lack of any comprehensive studies addressing all components of overtraining. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to describe the effects training load had on performance and psychological variables across a competitive season in collegiate female swimmers. Participants included 19 Division I female swimmers (Age: 19.74±1.19 yrs) who completed 6 tethered swimming tests, yielding the mean force (Fmean) produced during a 20 second period, as well as completing 7 Recovery-Stress Questionnaires (RESTQ-76), yielding a Total Recovery-Stress Score (TRSS). RPE scores were also collected for every training session from each athlete. From this, Session RPE was calculated by multiplying RPE by the meters completed in the training session yielding an arbitrary number representative of the individuals' internal training load. Utilizing the Session RPE data across the entire season, the participants were categorized into High, Middle, and Low training load groups (TLG). Analysis revealed no significant interaction between TLG and TRSS, or between TLG and Fmean. However, there was a significant time effect for TRSS (p

Download or read book World Book of Swimming written by Inigo Mujika and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before 1970, scientific research in swimming was poor and anecdotal, and the improvements of performance were linked firstly to the swimmer's experience and, secondly, as a result of permanent research for speed. Before and after the Second World War, scientific studies were conducted by pioneers and marked the beginning of research in stroke mechanics and swimming physiology exercise. This book reviews research on the body of knowledge available for the improvement of sports coaching and training practice in swimming, which seems to be relevant, numerous, and diversified enough to help swimming coaches bridge the gap between theory and practice.
