THE DIFFERENCE
Mental Performance Coach vs. Athletic Coach or Fitness Coach
Mental performance coaching differs from athletic coaching or fitness coaching in its focus on mental skills, such as resilience, focus, and stress management, rather than physical training or technical skills.
While an athletic coach or fitness coach helps improve physical capabilities and sports techniques, a mental performance coach hones the psychological side of performance.
This involves scientifically-backed methods to enhance mindset, manage pressure, and build confidence, complementing the work of athletic and fitness coaches but focusing on the mental aspects necessary for peak performance.
