The task of the coach is, therefore, to facilitate this process through the organization of appropriate programs stimulating the emotional involvement and allowing to develop new learnings.
The legacy of the Eastern disciplines should foster the use of the psychological preparation and stimulate the athletes’ mental development and, therefore, the change that is the ultimate coaching goal.

The body must be solicited effectively but the same goes for the mind. Otherwise dominate only the appearance, “have the Mr. Universe body”, but the mind will be totally abandoned. We know that we have to be physically active, but do we also know that we have to be mentally active?
We need to develop a social culture integrating these aspects, which are absolutely the same thing in the biological reality of each individual. There is no body and mind, there is the individual composed of different systems interacting continuously to facilitate adaptation and change.
