Increasing Your Mental Baseline

In Mental Mastery by Logan ChristopherLeave a Comment

Yesterday I discussed how you’re always mental training, whether you think you are or not. This is because, if you’re thinking at all, that is mental training that guides your actions. This doesn’t mean you’re doing EFFECTIVE mental training. Far from it. Most people are likely to be hurting their …

You’re ALWAYS Mental Training

In Mental Mastery by Logan ChristopherLeave a Comment

I was interviewed on a podcast recently in which most of the discussion was around mental training. (Of course, I’ll share that with you once it is live.) But we happened on a concept I hadn’t quite thought about before. The fact is… You are ALWAYS mental training…whether you think …

Two days ago, I told you about an idea I found from Ironmind’s Milo magazine that I really liked. (If you missed that one about injury prevention you can check it out here.) Now, something I disagree with. This is from an article on Mental Training for All Athletes by …

That Kinesthetic Feeling…

In Mental Mastery by adminLeave a Comment

It’s amazing… Amazing how OUT of touch people are with their bodies. I know we place all the value on our brains in our culture, but damn. From the neck down many people have next to zero bodily awareness. Even among trainers and athletes…it can be very bad. Sure, you …
