Você aquece sua mente? Por que a preparação mental importa tanto quanto o aquecimento físico

Todos sabemos que aquecimento é um aspecto fundamental da rotina de treinamento de qualquer atleta .  Ele permite que você prepare seus músculos, seu coração, sua respiração e outras respostas para atingir seu potencial máximo. Porque ninguém vai de zero a cem de uma só vez.  Não seria saudável.  O aquecimento faz parte da adaptação e prevenção de lesões. Cada disciplina esportiva tem seu…

Each sporting discipline has its specific way of warming up depending on the demand and type of sporting activity. But do you also mentally prepare for your training session? Most athletes, both professional and popular, do not do this.

If you only warm up physically before starting your activity, you are not mentally prepared to train. That moment requires a mental routine so that, when you shoot your first ball, run your first series or hit your first drive, you are one hundred percent.

Do You Warm Up Your Mind?

Heating emotions and thoughts also has its advantages. Which are as follows:

Aumenta a concentração.

Have you not noticed that when you start reading, studying or working, the moment you start your concentração is less than after about twenty minutes?

• It is because the concentration requires a heating phase. That is why it is not advisable to start studying with the most difficult subject. The same happens in sports.
• If you want to be 100% focused on your first rondo or your first set, you need to do exercises that get you into the training before you start it.
• You can practice for this with meditation techniques. It’s about spending a few minutes focusing your attention on the here and now, stopping paying attention to what remains.^(1),(2)

Melhore a técnica e o aprendizado.

• Guided imagination or visualization techniques allow your brain to visualize and anticipate what you want to achieve in the training session.⁽³⁾
• You can visualize the entire session, with the changes in rhythm, with what you are going to say, or you can visualize very specific moments, such as the stride technique that you want to perfect or the volley.
• Visualizing allows you to have mental images that prepare the brain for the occasion.
• The brain does not distinguish between what you visualize and what you execute, for it it is the same experience and in both, it connects the brain circuits that lead you to execute that exercise.
• So every time you successfully visualize, you go deeper into automating that activity.
• Visualization motivates and promotes learning.

Aumente a motivação.

• Going out to train requires having a clear training plan in your head.
• Know the difficulty, the times, the breaks, the level of success you want to obtain.
• Before training, get into the routine of writing down what you want to achieve today in your training session, but not in terms of the result, but in terms of performance.
• What do you have to do, in how much time, in what way?
• And when you finish your training session, assess whether you have achieved what you set out to do. If not, you could write down what the improvement solutions will be for the next session.

Don’t think about beating yourself up if you don’t get it! Being focused on what you want to do motivates.

Você ganha confiança e segurança.

• Having a mental routine allows you to carry out all the guidelines we have talked about: writing objectives, visualizing, motivating yourself and this prepares us to train.
• The moment you start your psychological warm-up routine, your brain knows that the next step is to train.
• It gives us security to have a mental plan of what we are going to execute.

Você administra suas emoções e seus ritmos.

• There are times when we face long, hard or boring workouts.
• When faced with this type of training, we tend to develop negative thoughts, “ Ugh, what a bummer,” “It’s going to take forever. ”
• But if before training you work on self-talk, that is, your inner game, what you say to yourself, and choose motivating expressions and words, the harshness of the training will not disappear, but you will modify your mood. .
• Since you have to do it, it will always be better from ambition, positivity and enjoyment.

Você aquece sua mente – experiência pessoal.

My name is Carlos Mendoza, Semi-Professional Footballer, Sports Science Student, Valencia, Spain, in my early years in the profession, I used to spend all my energy on physical warm-ups, and never gave any attention to the mental preparation. As soon as I introduced short visualization and breathing routines prior to training, my attention became clearer, the number of mistakes decreased, and I became confident even at the first drill.

“Warming up my mind helped me enter training focused, confident, and fully present from the first minute.”

— Carlos Mendoza, Semi-Professional Footballer

opinião de um especialista.

As per Dr. Natalie Fischer, PhD – Sports Psychologist/ Performance Coach, mental warming up is as important as physical one since attention, motivation and emotional control are directly related to movement quality and learning. Goal-setting, mindful breathing, and visualization are known to trigger neural networks that are part of performance and enable athletes to move between their everyday life and the training environment. Mentally prepared athletes are more likely to demonstrate an increase in focus, consistency and resilience to pressure.
