このコンテンツについて

Brain in the Game explores the mental aspect of training and competing at an elite level of sport. We’re all aware of the traditional role of a physical coach – people who work with the bodies of athletes – mind coaching (or mental coaching) focuses on the brain and the cognitive area of an athlete, working with them on their strategies, their structure and their emotional welfare. Brain in the Game is designed for athletes, coaches, parents and crew as we unpack and understand what it takes to thrive as an elite athlete. In each episode we will examine a different facet of sport from the perspective of the mind, covering interviews with some of the top athletes on the circuit and asking them what’s working for them now and what they’re looking at doing in the future. We talk to coaches and gain a better understanding of the changing face of professional coaching. We also delve into biomechanics and understand the different dynamics of the integration of those in professional sport. Some of the techniques discussed will be time-tested and others will be cutting-edge. Brain In The Game provides a practical insight to the mental 'mind-field' of elite sport and demonstrates how a strong mental programme can make all the difference to an athlete’s results.© 2023 Dave Diggle 個人的成功 自己啓発

  • 102: Understanding Extreme Pressure
    2025/05/26

    This episode of Brain in the Game is a little different. It’s personal.

    In this episode I share a story from a time when I worked in high-risk, high-pressure environments where failure wasn’t an option, and the valuable lessons I learned and carried with me throughout my career that could help you too.

    I also detail two mental frameworks to help you stay calm, focused, and ready to perform, even when everything around you is in chaos.

    Pressure is part of the deal, so how do you handle it?
    Your brain is wired for survival, not high performance. It panics, it overthinks, it floods you with 'what-ifs'. The key to performing under extreme pressure? Learn how to work with your own instincts.

    The Power of Simplification
    When your heart's racing and the stakes are high, your job is to cut through the noise and focus on only what matters.
    Ask yourself:

    • What’s essential here?
    • What’s just a distraction?
    • What’s the simplest next step?

    The 'Bubble' Technique: Your Secret Weapon
    Picture this: chaos everywhere, crowds, noise, mistakes, pressure from coaches, other competitors. Can you block it all out?
    Learn how to create your own mental 'bubble' and choose what comes inside. Everything else? Let it go.

    Don’t Just Hope You’ll Cope, Prepare for the Pressure
    Waiting for things to go perfectly is a recipe for disappointment. Build a process you can trust, no matter what’s happening around you.

    These mental frameworks will help you stay calm, locked in, and ready to execute, especially when things around you are out of your control.

    So take these strategies into your next competition – they’re your edge.

  • 101: Breaking the Performance Anxiety Cycle and Performing When It Counts
    2025/02/10
    Performance anxiety is not a sign of weakness. It’s a cycle. And you can break it.

    In this episode of Brain in the Game, we go deep into the Performance Anxiety Cycle, the mental loop that can sabotage your game day execution if you don’t know how to manage it. We discuss:

    • Why anxiety is NOT a weakness and how every elite athlete faces it
    • The 8 phases of performance anxiety and how they build on each other
    • How to stop overthinking, stay calm under pressure, and deliver when it counts
    • The key mindset shifts to stop anxiety from ruining your chances at selection
    • How to turn fear into focus so you can consistently perform at your best

    If you’ve ever had sleepless nights before a big competition, felt sick with nerves before stepping onto the field, or doubted yourself in critical moments, this episode is your playbook for overcoming it.
