This book brings together
world-class professionals to share theoretical understanding applied to
sport, exercise and performance domains. It highlights how to be more effective in developing psychological skills, context and understanding for educators, students and professionals.
From
both academic and practitioner perspectives, this book takes readers
through contextual understanding of this field of study and into a wide
variety of important areas. Specifically, the chapters focus on the
mind-body relationship and performance challenges, and on core mental
skills applied across different sport, exercise and performance examples
(including professional athletes, normal exercise populations and
military service members). The final section expands the context into
the role of relationships and performance in group settings to cover a
broad practice of modern day applied performance psychology.
