In this video, we delve into the reasons why athletes often experience fear on game day and how it can hinder their performance. Fear of failure, fear of the unknown and fear of criticism are the three main reasons why athletes play with fear. The fear of failure can lead to a lack of confidence, causing them to play it safe and not make an impact on the game. Fear of the unknown occurs when athletes encounter something unfamiliar, causing anxiety and uncertainty. Fear of criticism and judgment can cause a lack of confidence and self-doubt, leading to a less than impressive performance.
However, fear doesn't have to hold athletes back. We provide five practical tips to help you become the fearless athlete you want to be, starting with having a pre-performance routine. A consistent pre-performance routine is one of the simplest ways to gain a feeling of control over the situation, which can help alleviate fear. By following this and other tips, athletes can improve their performance and become the confident, fearless athletes they are meant to be.

@@SamMartinPeakPerformancethanks ! I watched this clip and at match day i was a beast but someone tackled me ia made a backflip and hit my back
Yesterday I had my best performance on the pitch because of this video❤️ I was fearless, I was not afraid of making mistakes and I earned my first individual award🏆. Thanks alot mate 🙏
Amazing! keep it up
Focus on the task at hand
Make yourself feel controlled before training or playing games
Make positive self talk ex. "Of course im gonna score" Im always the best I always have been" " Im gonna show myself
Reset yourself when you feel like your too mentally stressed
Accept what happens just play your game
You learn from mistakes who cares
Be happy to fail
Use it as energy
Just accept and work harder

Love to hear it 🙌 💪
@@SamMartinPeakPerformance you helped me a lot so far keep going, gold for athletes at any level ❤️
@@thedees1yt appreciate it brother 🤝
Great video - I almost disagree however with playing it safe/getting some early passes in the beginning of the game. If you rely on the outcomes being positive and need that to be confident, then when your first pass is bad then you instantly drop confidence. Real confidence is believing that irrespective of the last action, the next one will be positive if that makes sense. Basically i'm saying, if you were truly confident missing a few shots in a row or in the beginning of a game wouldn't shake your confidence
Thanks for your take Benjamin - definitely a valid point! Indeed, ultimate goal is to have that confidence where you're not phased by any outcome. Spot on mate
Yes! You definitely need to be resilient and unphased by failure to be confident!
I’m a goalkeeper and I have a game after a couple hours
I have fear that my coach will not approve the way I play if I didn’t save alot
Thank you man 🙏❤
you’ve helped my game so much❤️
Very glad to hear that. Keep it up 💪
Fear in sports can hinder performance due to fear of failure !
- Establish a pre-performance routine to gain a sense of control over the situation and reduce fear.
- Focus on small wins to break down the event into manageable steps, boosting in-game confidence.
- Create a Fearless Mantra to boost confidence and maintain composure during challenging moments.
- Use a reset button, like snapping an elastic band, to mentally reset after mistakes and refocus on the present.
- Embrace acceptance attitudes, accepting nervousness as a natural part of the process and channeling it into productive energy.

Westbrick only plays good when he knows he the best player on the team.
😅 I mean I guess there's been times that's been the case
liked this vid until you put gerrard's slip maynnnn why would u do that :((
😅 sorry bro
Bro Give me some tips I used to run very fast but I lost my speed😢
Here's a couple of suggestions
1. Consistent training: start by establishing a regular training routine. Consistency is key when it comes to improving your speed. Aim for at least three to four days of running each week, gradually increasing the intensity and distance over time.
2. Interval Training: Incorporate interval training into your routine. This involves alternating between intense bursts of speed and slower recovery periods. It's an effective way to improve your cardiovascular fitness and build speed. For example, try sprinting for 30 seconds, followed by a 60-second jog or walk, and repeat for several rounds.
Why would u play with fear at all? Ur not gonna die. There’s medical support and referees protecting u
Well they are not everywhere

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

-(How that Christ died - he shed his blood)

And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
