About this listen
Praise for Mind Gym:
"Believing in yourself is paramount to success for any athlete. Gary's lessons and David's writing provide examples of the importance of the mental game." (Ben Crenshaw, two-time Masters champion and former Ryder Cup captain)
"Mind Gym hits a home run. If you want to build mental muscle for the major leagues, read this book." (Ken Griffey Jr., Major League Baseball MVP)
"I read Mind Gym on my way to the Sydney Olympics and really got a lot out of it. Gary has important lessons to teach, and you'll find the exercises fun and beneficial." (Jason Kidd, NBA All-Star and Olympic gold-medal winner)
"I love the book Mind Gym." (Madison Kocian, 2016 US Women's Gymnastics Team, 2015 Uneven Bars World Champion, as told to Us Weekly)
In Mind Gym, noted sports psychology consultant Gary Mack explains how your mind influences your performance on the field or on the court as much as your physical skill does, if not more so. Through 40 accessible lessons and inspirational anecdotes from prominent athletes—many of whom he has worked with—you will learn the same techniques and exercises Mack uses to help elite athletes build mental "muscle". Mind Gym will give you the "head edge" over the competition.

Story
He's been called the best in the world at the mental game of tennis. Brad Gilbert's strokes may not be pretty, but looks aren't everything. He has beaten the tour's biggest names - all by playing his "ugly" game. Now, in Winning Ugly, Gilbert teaches recreational players how to win more often without necessarily even changing their strokes. The key to success, he says, is to become a better thinking player - to recognize, analyze, and capitalize. That means out-thinking opponents before, during, and after a match - forcing him or her to play your game.

Could have been an informative pamphlet
A whole lot of fluff…very few actionable steps. There are 2 or 3 valuable exercises in this book, which seems too few given it’s length.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
