Today David considers the statement: "Coping strategies: You'll develop tools to manage pressure and stress" where he focuses on supporting coaches to improve themselves, and in turn, improve their athletes. This is a continuation of his examination into ChatGPT and its response to the question "What Can I Expect When Working With A Sport Psychologist."

David shares many insightful thoughts about the topic to be able to support coaches. With some great questions for coaches to ask themselves.

Key Learning Points:

How do you want your athletes to behave around your club?
Do you as a coach help your athletes mind and body to work in harmony?
How can you activate your parasympathetic nervous system more to influence your athletes?
Coach pressures come from managing athletes, senior management, coaching colleagues, sport science staff and parents goals, expectations and personalities and much more.
Fear can play a big part and influence coaches; fear of failure, fear of judgement, fear of pain, fear of regret and fear of rejection.
