better training. better game time decisions. better athletes.
This week we have clinical sports psychologist, Vince Lodato. Vince heads the Cooper Speed and Strength Lab out of the National Sports Performance Institute in Tampa. Over the years he’s helped high level athletes and teams optimize their performance using innovative techniques such as vision and motor programming, neurotracking, and psychological training. Vince knows that to truly be a performance whore, athletes and coaches must leave no stone unturned when integrating the latest technology.
Later in the show we discover the term “Immediate Onset Muscle Soreness” coined by Professor Booty himself. Find out why the Compex training is simultaneously stimulating tears of joy and pain.
It’s time to flex that frontal lobe and break a mental sweat with Episode 91 of Power Athlete Radio.
