Understanding the story a fighter tells himself is very important beyond the scope of athletics. The Male ego from birth is conditioned to be the leader, protector, and mentor but without proper training regarding the roles they are expected to take on.

 

As Coaches, we must make sure that we are not adding to the story that may trigger emotions of fear, doubt, and inadequacy. To gain a better understanding we should listen and assist. The training should take on a pace that is progressive in nature with phases of pushing forward balanced with phases of pulling back.
