EXCELLENCE:C&C
ABOUT EXCELLENCE
Some people especially in
sport want to do their best. They want to performe on their
highest level and reach their personal best performance.
They work out for years to higher their goals. There is a
rule that a human being needs ten years of daily training
to reach excellence with his or her personal best.
"Climb
high, climb far, your goal the sky, your aim the
star."

Sport Psychology took a
first step towards its development as a sport science in
1913, together with sport medicine. It started under the
propitious circumstances of a first congress with the topic „The
International Congress of Sports Psychology and Sports Physiology“ in
Lausanne (Switzerland) under the Presidency of the famous
Baron Pierre de Coubertin, founder of the New
Olympic Games starting in 1896 in Paris.

SPORT PSYCHOLOGY
Today, sport and the sport sciences would not be conceivable without the essential
complement of Sport Psychology. Coaches and athletes want to apply Sport Psychology
in practice, knowing that it can provide advice and techniques in the pursuit
of excellence. Not only top level athletes, but also other high achievers require
psychological advice and assistance. They want to learn how to develop a more
positive outlook, to experience flow in performing and to focus the commitment
and overcome obstacles on the way to reach excellence.
"The
first element to reach high goals in sport and in
life is your commitment to persue your dream."

Sport Psychology and Mental Training

Sport Psychology professionals are interested to know more about psychological factors in athletic performance in respect to enhance them and overcome obstacles that prevent athletes and teams from reaching their potential on their way to excellence.

HUMAN POTENTIAL TRAINING (HPT)
Together with athletes and coaches Guido Schilling worked out a psychological training program, the Human Potential Training (HPT). This program gives the opportunity to work on those mental factors an athlete or coach wants to improve.
1. HPT is a package of psychological procedures to be applied in different sport activities in training and competition, before, during and after.
2. HPT combines elements of psychoregulation and mental training, to bring body and mind on a high level in an equilibrium.
3. HPT is not a new theory, but a collection of tools enabling athletes and coaches to find the optimal state in preparing and in performing athletic performances.
The Elements of HPT
1. Goal Setting with Self-Confidence
2. Positive Thinking
3. Visualisation and Imagination
4. Concentration
5. Motivation and Commitment
