The effect of the mind on sport is of great importance. In fact, it is believed that between 40% and 90% of sports success is due to mental factors, varying in the type of sport and in the different situations that arise. And faith of this can give any athlete with some experience. Concentration, motivation, confidence, cohesion... Anyone who has practiced sport can confidently affirm that they are highly relevant aspects of sports practice.

Initially, success in sports was considered as the only result of the athlete's physical condition, and all the training and work objectives were directed in this direction. This vision is currently obsolete, as it is known that there are other aspects that influence sports success. So today, anyone in contact with the sports world will confirm that psychological training is a fundamental part of training.

But is this vision really being realized? Is psychological training really being accommodated?



Sport is an area in which mind and body are required to the maximum. And there is nothing more beautiful for an athlete than being in the "flow" situation, in the situation in which such is the mind-body coordination, which does not seem to exist at that time more than the athletes themselves and the objective to achieve , in which it acts in an almost “automatic” way, and in which all the past hours of effort and sacrifice pay off, perceived as a comforting moment. Psychological training contributes to reaching this state, causing psychological control of the athlete and consequently increasing their sports performance.
