Physical/Mental Training
"Losing is not my enemy....fear of losing is my enemy." - Rafael NadalSMACK Physical Training Program Players need to understand, and coaches need to emphasize, how being physically fit effects their confidence and mental toughness as much as it does their endurance, speed and mobility on the court. By strengthening a person physically, I believe they can also be strengthened mentally.
At SMACKtennis we believe that to achieve your maximum potential a player must max out their athletic potential. Our program features not only footwork and conditioning during the core drilling, but an entire day (wednesdays 4-6) devoted to conditioning and mental training.
Do you ever lose to lesser players in tournaments? Do your confidence, consistency or concentration disappear during matches? Do you play great in practice, but play badly against highly seeded players? Or are you just looking to improve and move to the next level?
No problem! Most players experience all of these things - and the good news is they are all easily taken care of by mental training. Mental toughness is one of the main weapons behind the success of champions such as Federer and Nadal - and remember that Federer was once a young kid who had very bad temper.
