"...Unleashing Carragher's Nightmare" - A Conversation with Dan Abrahams

Dan Abrahams is a coach that specialises in a different kind of skill acquisition...Dan specialises in the acquisition of mental skills. He is a consultant to England Rugby, AFC Bournemouth as well as several elite athletes from around the sporting world. He is the author of a series of books such as 'Golf Tough', 'Soccer Tough', 'Soccer Tough 2' and he is extremely active on social media, etc.

In this highly informative conversation Dan and I discuss...

- Why he thinks the FA's Four Corners Model is flawed
- How to get players into the 'Individual Zone of Optimal Functioning' (IZOF)
- Why most athletes are susceptible to 'Paradoxical Thinking' about the way they train and prepare for competition
- His method of 'stretch and support' to help human growth
- How he uses mataphor and analogy to help players get a 'Game Face' ready for competition
- His approach to establishing goals with athletes

There is a lot in here that is essential listening to anyone serious about helping young people to unleash their potential
