Great videos bro! Not sure if you’ve covered this but I’d love it if you made a video on how to not let social media psychologically affect you by making you compare yourself to others.
Nice idea, I’ll look into it 👍
Delete media, actually helps with your mental health and you get extra time to perfect your craft
This video is masterpeice, the tip i use the most is the first one, for me when ever i want to get good at a move or a shot in football i always play a match that can be with friends,family, or teammates. I do this so i get that "in game feeling" and see how it would work and how i can execute it during a real game. Great video love this topic .
Thanks a lot man 🙌 glad you're already using such a key tip to unlock better performance!
Overthinking can sabotage athletic performance during critical moments by causing distraction, stress, and anxiety in key moments.
These are the strategies discussed in the video :
- Practicing under pressure and replicating game conditions. (It helps desensitize athletes to stress and enhance performance.)
- Replace negative self-talk with positive, outcome-focused statements. (This helps redirect the mind's focus.)
- Mindfulness through meditation and breathing exercises. (This improves focus, stress management, and decision making)
The mindfulness point is brilliant.
Thanks for making complex ideas simple.
You're welcome Jurgen! Thanks for watching again
Most underrated channel. Very useful and informative video 👍
Glad you think so - hope these tips help
Thanks man. The self-talk mid game is so helpful. especially when you do it in the right way like how you explained in the video. great video
Absolutely - if not done right it really can sabotage things even more for you!

Very classy Sam.
Da Vinci-esque (simplicity is the ultimate sophistication).
You have a unique ability to simplify complex issues and distil them into bite sized chunks.
Appreciate it Jeffrey - I certainly do my best 😅 I do sometimes find it difficult to synthesise things down in a way that doesn't dilute them too much!

Ive been listening to many of your videos and was wondering if you could take a look at goalkeeping psychology and the mindset of that position in soecific. Great content 👌
I'll look into it and do some research 👍
Great Vid! I thought it was funny that you had Timo Werner
Have you made a video on not freezing up on the ball?
no but hopefully some of these ideas help. i also have a video on fears of making mistakes you may want to check out
In a period of a day already watched this 3 times legit ur biggest supporter
Thanks Lucas - which tip do you think is going to be most helpful for you?
@@SamMartinPeakPerformanceok so I play football/soccer and I think the example I’m about to give is not helpful for all kinds of sports but I guess for team sports like basketball volley or football is a great way to not overthink.
What really helps me not overthink is “celebrating the little things” and when I mean celebrate I mean I get proud of myself let me give an example: The game just started and I’m overthinking like crazy once I get the ball I’ll make a safe pass to a teammate or I’ll make something not to complicated with will help me get that in match confidence which a lot of athletes lack.
So I do this repeatedly until I’m fully confident in my ability to do some more advanced skills or riskier shots etc…
I know it sounds dumb but to whoever is reading this try doing that next time u have a game. “Celebrate small wins”
underrated fr
You know it 😅
Great
Thanks 👍
Could u do a messi video.
Like how he trains
How he eats
His mindset.
I'll look into it bro 👍

Sam I have had 2 really good games were I have performed up to a man of the match preformance, how do I keep it up as I have been doing a routine that makes me into a flow state, but what if I forget to do it? How do I preform great every week?
Keep it up 👍 set a reminder/alarm for when you need to carry out the routine to ensure you don’t forget it. No need to fix something that isn’t broke!
We want video about messi mindset for his playing style
What else causes you to overthink? 🤔
it was my self doubt if I didn't make that free throw and the coaches shouting at me.
@@therealelgatoIII what will you do differently in future? 🙂
@@SamMartinPeakPerformance To watch more of your videos to hopefully stay calm under pressure. Last time I played well on my Basketball match remembering what you said.
@@therealelgatoIII good stuff keep it up 👍
if I am good enough for my team and if I will ever get scouted as my age is going up and I am not getting in an academy
