It<\/span>used to be that an athlete who won gold at the Olympics would thank his coach, his athletic trainer, his teammates, the Federation, his family, and his girlfriend or boyfriend. For the past few years you also happen to hear them thanking a figure that has become increasingly important in sports preparation: the mental coach.
\nIt also happened to Marcell Jacobs, triumphant in the 100-meter and 400-meter relay in Tokyo, who, after his golden victory, did not hesitate to thank you specifically: Nicoletta Romanazzi<\/a>, his mental coach (who follows not only Jacobs but also other Italian athletes and, in her profession, industrial and professional athletes).<\/p>\n

We have been telling you for some time<\/a> that mental training is just as crucial as (if not more so) physical training. The reason is quickly stated: the body cannot sustain athletic performance taken to the limit (both in terms of speed and duration) based on its state of fitness alone. The mental component is the foundation of motivation and persuasion to continue enduring, even when the body sends signals of failure. And not only that, energy management is an expression of the intelligence and wisdom with which energies are consumed, and in this context the role of the mind is crucial.<\/p>\n
