Maximum Athletic Performance Systems
Boost health and endurance levels, achieve fitness and performance goals (8 hours)
The MAPS workshop explores the mental, physical and emotional components of peak performance, including stamina, perseverance, concentration, flexibility, hydrations, fuel, breathing, thoughts, self talk, and muscle tune-up techniques.
We develop an action plan to apply these techniques before, during and after events to increase endurance, handle the common problems of muscular pain and cramping and joint discomfort, and increase recovery rate. The end result is to feel and perform at your best, both on and off the playing field.
These tools are being used worldwide by Olympic athletes and triathletes, including medal winners. In addition to performance enhancement you can expect improved recovery time and reduced risk of injury.

• Two sport psychology techniques to overcome anxiety and to access powerful states
