Krushing Anxiety – Stress & Pressure & The Mental Game for Elite Performance

Jun 10/ 2019/

Stress, pressure, and anxiety are all around us and learning to deal with them is an important skill. We like to get all of our performers to the point where they are making these traditional negatives work to their advantage.
Today on the show, I talk with Dana Santas of Mobility Maker about some of the strategies she uses to help her clients cope and deal with anxiety and stress and we discuss her Mindset Reboot Program. You can have a look at her website Mobilitymaker.com. This program works and you can use it for the rest of time.
Also, as my NHL playoff pool was totally annihilated in the first round of the play-offs, I wanted to dive into one of the most intriguing positions on the ice…goal-tending. We talk with John Stevenson of Zone Performance about the mental game of sport and how you can fine tune it for a position like goal-tending and we discuss his new program: Play Out of Your Mind – for Goalies.

Krush Rant And Roll – Talent & Development

May 31/ 2019/

What can we learn from the world’s top performers? Are we doing enough to support our developing athletes? If we look at the upcoming MLB and NBA amateur drafts, the NHL Draft Combine, and the NFL Draft, what can we learn?
Where do these great young talents come from?
What did they do to arrive at the very top of the sporting world’s talent pools?
What can we learn from them and others who managed to navigate their way through the labyrinth of developmental sport?
We discuss these questions and others and you might be surprised at some of the answers.
We do know that where you come from can have a significant influence on your development and for reasons you might not imagine. The path to greatness is as unique as the individual but there are fundamentals that need to be addressed along the way and they can give you a significant advantage.

And, I share with you a rare Krush Rant. We received a great question in the Krush Mailbag and I addressed it on terrestrial radio last week. I wanted to share it with you to see if you agree with me or if you vote me off the island…have a listen and let me know what you think.

Injuries, Burnout, And The Velocity Trap!

May 23/ 2019/

What would you say if I said, “We are destroying more Talent than we are creating?” Could it be possible? How do I justify even saying such things??

  • What are the top priorities in staying healthy?

Experts vs. Masters with Jim Fannin

Apr 24/ 2019/

There are those who are good. There are those who are great. Then, there are The Masters.
The Masters are those special few who have separated themselves from the rest in terms of their ability to perform and execute their craft better than anyone, seemingly, at will.
It’s said that where an expert expects to do well, a Master KNOWS.
Today, I talk with America’s Zone Coach and Krush Favorite, Jim Fannin, as we take a look back on an incredible weekend at Augusta National and discuss what we can take away from Tigers return to the top of the field at The Masters.
Whether you are a fan of golf or not, a fan of Tiger or not, there is so much we can learn from what unraveled at Augusta and it has implications that go well beyond sport. We talk with Jim about Tiger’s climb back from rock bottom in virtually every aspect of his life, personal, physical, mental and professional to find his way back to the top of his field. It is a story for the ages and a story that provides hope for anyone who has fallen or lost their way….. you can Battle Back!
Also, from golf we go to the other end of the sport spectrum as we discuss the 123rd Running of the Boston Marathon and our quest for the sub two-hour marathon. Is it humanly possible? We think it is.
What do you think? Let us know and enjoy this week’s episode of Krush Performance.
