The world of sports performance has shifted and it’s no longer all about muscles and physiology. We now understand the impact our mental performance and psychology can have on whether we succeed or not. Who better to shed some light on the topic of sport psychology and mental performance than the one and only Dr. Jack Lesyk. Dr. Lesyk is the director of the Ohio Center for Sport Psychology, Sport Psychologist for the Cleveland Cavaliers, and an Adjunct Asst. Professor of Psychology at Cleveland State University. He was experience working with high performers ranging from NFL players to professional runners to Fortune 500 CEOs. In episode #9 of “Pushing Downhill”, Dr. Lesyk discusses the stress and anxiety and what to do about them, the "Nine Mental Skills of Successful Athletes", what separates success from failure and other mental strategies to help you level up in your own life.
