Is your riding performance a series of peaks and troughs? Do you
find it hard to concentrate on the right things? Are you easily
distracted by negative thoughts? Do you lack self-confidence, fear
it, or confuse it with arrogance? Does your riding lack goals and
ambition? Do you prepare properly for competition? "A Sport
Psychology Workbook for Riders" deals with these issues, and more,
in a clear, realistic and sympathetic way. While the author clearly
emphasizes the need for technical proficiency, she makes the point
that becoming a truly competent rider involves much more than just
technique. Effective riding is ultimately a two-way communication
between rider and horse, and the benefits of the rider being
relaxed, confident and focused are enormous. In this book, the
reader is taught how to achieve this beneficial state through
employing mental strategies that are used by top riders (and other
athletes) whilst training and competing. These strategies are
explained in logical, down-to-earth terms, cutting through the
muddled and destructive thinking which so often bedevils
performance. While the book focuses primarily upon preparation and
performance in the competitive disciplines, the ideas and
strategies expounded will be of equal value to all riders who want
to achieve a happy and successful relationship with their horse.
Furthermore, since sport psychology is the psychology of peak
performance, the strategies on offer have many positive
applications in daily life.
