Incredibly refreshing to hear such perspective in the midst of performance disappointment! It is possible to express gratitude whilst wanting more. Attitude is a choice 🧠

@Cal_Contendunt A lot of water first thing there bud, might be worth spreading that out over the morning.

@DanAbrahams77 @HeriotWattUni Literally just finishing my MSc dissertation on the relationship between PT intervention dosage, performance outcomes, and perceptions/appraisals of pressure conditions. Very cool subject :)

Body language in sport isn't just keeping great body language. It's action, it's motion, it's movement

It's who you want to be. It's holding yourself with excellence. It's your best attitude and your best physical state

Be and do and act the body language you want at all times

Critical @SkySportsNews piece

Specialists state kids now TWENTY NINE FOLD more likely to have ACL surgery vs 20yrs ago. Girls 6 times more susceptible.

*Sedentary to intense activity
*Poor quality warm ups
*Single sport focus

Coachs must take duty of care & get better educated

No work today but new coffee shop 👌

[Pete Barry @petegbarry]

In San Diego for our @LeedsBeckettRFC. Making the most of the early mornings thanks to the jet lag to explore the coffee shops and get some work done.

It's FINALLY here! PBD Podcast episode 2 with @Justin_Hall12!
Listen to "Ep 2 | A Fine Line to Tread: Social Identity Theory and Culture in Sport | With, Justin Hall." https://t.co/3gFIGXRkLf

[Daniel Abrahams @DanAbrahams77]

Coaches often ask themselves “How can I motivate my players?”

Another question is: “How can I help my players motivate themselves?”

The former may be done through comms and tasks.

The latter may be done through open questions and player-driven challenges...both can work!

[Pete Barry @petegbarry]

@robertforto @PhD_Genie What conference is this? Might be interested

[Rachael Jefferson, PhD, PFHEA 🇬🇧🇦🇺💃🚴‍♀️🏃‍♀️ @3dancingfeet]

When you feel uneasy or triggered, what are your go-to coping skills? 🙏

This would be a great visual reminder for students, and you could work with them on a number of these in class.
