You dedicate hours to training your body, improving your endurance, and increasing strength. You obsess over gear choices and take steps to be as dialed in as possible. You optimize nutrition and recovery. Yet, despite your dedication you may be neglecting one of the most important aspects of being an athlete: Your Mind.
I specialize in training the mental side of sport with the first (and only) embedded sports psychology training plan in Training Peaks. I am also a Certified Cycling Coach.
