The Forging Iron Podcast with Griffin Jaworski
We dive into the science and stories of endurance athletes, authors, physicians, nutritionists, and psychologists to see what comes to the surface.
"As iron sharpens iron, people sharpen people." - Proverbs 27:17.
As an endurance coach, athlete and current Master's in Applied Sport Psychology student, my aim is to help you make the most out of life through sport.
Happy training!
- Coach Griffin
The Forging Iron Podcast with Griffin Jaworski
How to Actually Build Mental Strength with Dr. Brian Zuleger: Part 1
Dr. Zuleger is a Certified Mental Performance Coach, P.H.D. in Sport Psychology, and the Coordinator of the Applied Sport Psychology master's program that I'm in at Adams State University.
Dr. Zuleger has worked with a wide range of athletes and teams, including NCAA champions and olympians but he's also passionate about educating coaches, both in how to they can help their athletes with the psychological side of sport but also in how coaches can view what they do as a performance. It's so fascinating because coaches teach athletes how to do better, but very often coaches just have to learn by osmosis, of watching other coaches, and maybe they know the technical side of sport but very seldom are they actually educated on the performance psychology.
This is a two part masterclass on what it means to build mental strength and be a great coach and leader.
Wether you're an athlete, a coach, a parent, or business person, there's something in these episodes for you.
