Welcome to another episode of the Triathlon Mental Performance Podcast.

In this episode, I talk about a powerful strategy from cognitive-behavioral psychology that could revolutionize your approach to racing: the 'If-Then' planning technique.

Key Highlights:

• Introducing the 'If-Then' Strategy: I talk about the 'If-Then' planning technique from cognitive-behavioral psychology and its transformative potential for triathletes. I simplify this strategic approach, showing its power to enhance mental preparation and resilience in both training and racing scenarios.
• The Impact of 'If-Then' Planning on Performance: Discover how adopting 'If-Then' scenarios can significantly improve your adaptability during races, enable quick, effective decision-making under pressure, and foster a proactive rather than reactive mindset.
• Crafting Your 'If-Then' Scenarios: Delve into methods for developing personalized 'If-Then' plans. Beyond visualization and positive self-talk, learn how to anticipate challenges and pre-script responses that align with your race goals and training values.
• 'If-Then' Strategy in Action: Gain practical tips for integrating the 'If-Then' strategy into your daily training and pre-race routines. From mental rehearsals to real-world applications, we explore how to make 'If-Then' planning a cornerstone of your mental toughness toolkit.

You are also welcome to take a look at my website which notes the programs that I take you as athletes through: www.neiledge.com

I also recently launched my second online program for those athletes that would like to work one to one with me but financially its a little challenging.

The program is a Video PowerPoint version of my preventing panic in open water program.

This will take you through the steps to ensure that you swim calmly and confidently on race day, without panic.
