Manage episode 433254232 series 2848730
Is your brain holding you back from peak performance? In this episode of the Dialed Health podcast, I am joined by Dr. Scott Frey of Cerebral Performance to dive into this very topic.
We discuss mental fatigue’s impact on athletic performance, how our brains act as a protective mechanism, limiting our output before we reach our true physiological limits, and science-backed techniques to use for pushing past these mental barriers. We also discuss practical tips like box breathing and mindfulness practices that can help athletes tap into their full potential.
Scott H. Frey, Ph.D., Ed.M., an award-winning scientist, mentor, and lifelong endurance athlete, leads a research program that focuses on understanding the relationship between the brain and human performance.
