Are you really the leader of your athletes

It’s widely believed that the athletes who show technical, tactical and physical fitness should be in optimum condition to compete at their best.

False. I know Olympian athletes  that they are no longer get up by a defeat at the following Olympics. Gold medalists that in the next four years there were no longer expressed at that level, or others who have repeatedly come to the Games with the title of world champion and have never reached the final. Maybe they were not fit or had lost their technique? I understand that it’s difficult for those who teach sport be convinced that even if technical and fitness are essential to feel like a F1 Ferrari , then serves the pilot (the mind) without whom all the other things are useless. Coaches must be convinced of their psychological role, and the need to acquire the professional skills necessary to also carry out this function. It’s clear that if you rely only on the few hours of theoretical sports psychology present in official training courses, it will be very difficult to perform this motivational function that athletes need.
