142. Master Your Mental Game with Pro Sports Psychologist Justin Su'a

142. Master Your Mental Game with Pro Sports Psychologist Justin Su'a

Justin is currently the Mental Performance and Leadership Coach with the Tampa Bay Rays, a major league baseball team. Prior to that, he worked for the Boston Red Sox and Cleveland Browns. He works with both coaches and players to improve the overall performance of their organizations.

Justin holds a Master of Science degree in Sport and Performance Psychology and his framework for improving performance will give us a glimpse of how he works with a variety of his clients.

We also address questions such as:

  • What happens when you focus on results versus the process?
  • Is it possible to "teach an old dog new tricks"?
  • Should you tinker with your training plans to improve faster?
  • Does goal setting work for everyone?

I hope you find this conversation filled with useful suggestions and ideas on how you, too, can improve your mental game.

Thank You Naked Nutrition

I want to thank Naked Nutrition for joining as our newest podcast sponsor. They make dietary supplements with the purest ingredients with no artificial sweeteners, flavors, or colors - and everything is made in the USA.

I've been taking their Vanilla Whey Protein Powder for several weeks now and can confidently say that it's the best protein powder I've ever had: it tastes great and I know I'm not ingesting what I don't need. I've used a lot of different protein powders over the years and this is definitely my favorite.

I love that this protein powder has only 3 ingredients and the whey is sourced from grass fed cows' milk. For those looking for a plant-based option, Naked Nutrition has vegan protein powders as well.

I'm also getting a shipment of their Naked Greens powder soon. I'll tell you about it after I test it out.

Check out all their products and let me know what you think once you try them out!
