Mental Strength Professional Coaching Certification

Developing the Unfair Advantage in Sport and Life

Mental strength – a term commonly used by coaches, sport psychologists, sport commentators, and business leaders – generally describes a collection of attributes that allow a person to persevere through difficult circumstances, like difficult training, competitive situations or business meetings, and emerge without losing confidence.

Your Unfair Advantage – Your Mind

The greatest tool a person has is their mind. The brain – that wonderful organ that regulates our breathing, controls our beating heart, and manages the rest our body – is at the core of all successful and unsuccessful performances.

Everybody knows that talent and physical skill play an enormous role in every success, but not many people understand the importance of the mind and how we use it. In fact, our mind is one of the most powerful pieces of equipment we’ll ever own.

It can make you or break you.

Defining Mental Strength

If you spent much time in the sports, business or personal development world you probably run across the term mental strength or mental toughness. Typically, mental strength encompasses:[/text_block]

• Resilience and the ability to bounce back or deal with adversity
• Motivation to do your best, regardless of the situation
• The ability to stay focused on the task at hand during important competitive moments
• The ability to remain poised when the pressure is on during competition

Mental strength is the ability to fight, challenge and conquer yourself, before, during and after an event and to become better, especially during tough times.

When is Mental Strength Coaching Useful?

Many athletes, coaches, parents and managers are confused about the role of Mental Strength Coaching in improving a person’s performance.

The goal of Mental Strength Coaching is to help individuals perform their best by improving the necessary mental skills to excel in stressful endeavors.

Mental Strength Coaching concentrates specifically on coaching individuals on how to break through the mental barriers that keep them from performing up to their potential and by teaching the mental skills necessary for success.

By focusing on the mental strategies needed to be successful, Mental Strength Coaching seeks to achieve the overall goal of performance improvement and enhancing consistency in performance, regardless of what that performance is.

What is the Mental Strength Professional Coaching Certification?

Funny thing about coaching, the client usually does well while they’re engaged in the coaching process. It’s when they leave that the progress stops.

The intent of this program is to arm managers, personal trainers and coaches with tools to help clients continue the progress when they are on their own.

It’s been my experience of 25+ years in sales, 20+ years in the fitness industry and 5+ years as a personal peak performance coach that lasting change occurs when the professional can communicate effectively with their client.

This communication involves understanding how they client thinks, why they think this way and offer tools to help them think in a more empowering way. This is why I developed the Mental Strength Professional Coaching Certification.

The course if divided into three sections:

1. Coaching
2. Mind
3. Mental Strength

The Coaching section goes over what personal coaching is. Many people think that coaching is telling the client what to do. This is true when it comes to technical coaching, i.e. sports performance, exercise and even sales. This method of telling is not effective for chancing habitual thinking and behavior.

Coaching to change a behavior is more than just telling a client to stop doing something. When a professional coach/trainer understands this they will truly be able to “coach” their clients to change their behaviors.

The Mind section goes over some basic NLP (neuro-linguists programing) and how people process information. When a coach understands HOW a client thinks they will be able to communicate at the same “level,” and then get the results they are both looking for.

The final section, Mental Strength, goes over the four basic mental strength tools used by the Navy SEAL’s and high level athletes around the word and the proper way of using them.

Mental strength is a contested term, in that many people use the term liberally to refer to any set of positive attributes that helps a person to cope with difficult situations. Coaches and commentators freely use the term mental toughness to describe the mental state of a person who perseveres through difficult circumstances to succeed. Only within the past ten years has scientific research attempted a formal definition of mental toughness as a psychological construct.
