Reaching the top of any sport, or any aspect of life, takes years upon years of dedication and proper preparation. But if there's a huge pool of individuals who have undertaken the same commitment and steps towards becoming the best, what truly separates the winners from everyone else? Joanna Zeiger believes proper mental preparation is the answer.The Champion Mindset is a much-needed and long overdue look into how to program a competitor's mind to achieve optimal success. Changing behaviors and ways of thinking are never easy, but the chapters in this book aim to simplify this process to make it manageable and achievable. This book is for every athlete-from the weekend warrior, who wants to complete in his or her first 5k running race, to those who have aspirations of one day becoming Olympians and world champions.The Champion Mindset is a compendium of Zeiger's own personal journey from struggling novice swimmer to Olympian and World Champion. Through steps including: Proper Goal Setting, Keeping it Fun, Building Your Team, Intention in Training, Improving Motivation, Promoting Self-Confidence, and Mind\/Body Cohesion, among others, Zeiger uses her decades of personal experience, doctoral-level research, and professional success, to prepare readers to go all-in with their mental game.Review\"[A] helpful, easy-to-read guide. Sure to appeal to endurance competitors, this will also be helpful to coaches and anyone interested in improving mental preparation to gain a competitive edge on or off the field.\"-Booklist\"During my training with endurance athletes across the world, I found that mentality is one of the most important-and neglected-elements of the discipline. Dr. Joanna Zeigers manual, full of first-hand experiences at the highest level of athletics, has the potential to help swimmers, cyclists, and runners of all types up their mental game so their physical one can follow.\"-Becky Wade, professional runner and author of Run the World: My 3,500-Mile Journey Through Running Cultures Around the Globe\"Finally, mental training methods for athletes are catching up to physical training methods. The Champion Mindset represents a big step forward in this exciting process.\"-Matt Fitzgerald, author of How Bad Do You Want It?, coach for Team Iron Cowboy and BSX Athletics\"What is it that separates the truly good athletes from the great ones? Mindset and mental toughness. Joanna Zeiger, with her 20+year career as a professional athlete in swimming, marathon running and triathlon, is just such an athlete. Joanna is in the perfect position to write this book, as it wasnt just through her physical talents that she ascended to the status of World Champion triathlete and Olympian. Joannas strong academic background combined with her years of racing and competing at the highest level in sport, give her the credentials to write with authority, a book about the mental edge, how to get it, hone it and how to develop a champion's mindset. This is the book I could have done with 20 years ago.-Craig Alexander, 3-time Ironman World Champion, 2-time Ironman 70.3 World Champion, and author of As the Crow Flies\"Getting an inside look into a champion's mind is rare and invaluable.
