Mental Toughness for Endurance Athletes

[VO2Commander]

Endurance sports are as much a mental game as they are physical.
Cultivate mental toughness by:

• Visualization: Mentally rehearse successful outcomes.
• Positive Self-Talk: Replace negative thoughts with empowering ones.
• Break It Down: Focus on smaller segments of a long effort.
• Accept Discomfort: Understand pain is temporary and part of the process.

"The body achieves what the mind believes."
