It’s National Athletic Training Month and we want to highlight the ways that Athletic Trainers support the mental health and mental performance needs of performers on a day to day basis.

Performers receive the best care when sport psych and sports med work together. We’re thankful to collaborate with hard working ATs and thankful for the work that they do with performers and athletes in every setting!

Mental performance training is often misunderstood 🤨

Many people believe it means being confident all the time, staying positive 24/7, or never feeling nervous before a big game, test, or performance 🏀📚🎭

In reality, mental performance skills focus on learning how to work with your mind under pressure 🤝

That includes managing nerves ⚖️, refocusing after mistakes ⚡️, building emotional regulation skills 😮‍💨, and developing a mindset that supports consistent performance 🧠

Whether you’re an athlete, performer, or high-achiever, your thoughts, emotions, and nervous system all influence how you show up when it matters most. The goal of mental performance training isn’t perfection—it’s psychological flexibility, resilience, and focus!

When you train your mind the same way you train your body or study for class, performance becomes more consistent—even on difficult days.

💬 Interested in building these skills? Our team works with individuals of all ages to strengthen confidence, focus, and mental resilience for sports, academics, and life 🤩

NEDA Week may be over, but our support doesn’t end here 💙✨

For many athletes, the pressure to perform, look a certain way, or “push through” can make it hard to speak up about struggles with food and body image.

Just because the awareness week has passed doesn’t mean the challenges disappear.

We’re still here—
For the days food feels stressful 🍽️😣
For the moments your body feels like the enemy instead of your teammate 🏋️‍♀️🤕
For the athletes who are excelling on the outside and hurting on the inside 💔

Your worth is not measured by numbers, stats, or aesthetics. Healing, support, and balance belong in sport—every week of the year!

For National Eating Disorders Awareness Week, we’re sharing some tips from our team to help create a more supportive culture around food and body image.

Our Next Level team includes two dietitians and a nutrition coach. Our sport/performance nutrition team works closely with our mental performance team to support athletes in their total health and well being.

💙Check out these tips from Coach Alyssa🧡

84% of collegiate athletes report having engaged in patterns of disordered eating or weight control behavior at some point in their athletic career.

Among high school students, athletes are more likely than their peers to struggle with eating disorders.

It’s crucial for those in athletics to take a multidisciplinary approach to supporting athletes and their well-being.

You’re not alone, we’re here to help.

Your brain and body are a team—and what you feed them before a game can make all the difference 🧠💪

Fueling for peak performance starts with these 4 steps ⬇️

🥑 Eat a Balanced Meal (2–3 Hours Before Game): Combine carbs + protein + healthy fats for sustained energy. Examples: oatmeal with fruit and nut butter, turkey and cheese sandwich on whole grain bread, chicken fajita bowl with rice and veggies, or yogurt with berries and granola.

💧 Hydrate Early: Start sipping water well before game time. Dehydration can sabotage focus, reaction time, and mood.

🍌 Quick Re-Fuel (30–60 Minutes Before Game): Simple carbs like a banana, dried fruit, rice cakes with honey, or even a handful of candy can give your body a last boost of energy without causing stomach discomfort or digestive issues.

🧘 Mindful Eating: Avoid distractions while fueling. Notice your hunger/fullness and how different foods make you feel—this primes your body and mind for peak performance.

Fueling isn’t about “perfection” — it’s about listening to your body and giving it what it needs to perform, recover, and feel its best ⚡️

Nutrition isn’t one-size-fits-all! Our nutrition coaches can help you build a fueling strategy that works with your body and meets its needs 🤝

Valentine’s Day might be over, but you still deserve to treat yourself with love and compassion 💌

Your performance isn’t built on being perfect — it’s shaped by how you talk to yourself when things get tough 😅🫂

Mental strength comes from self-trust, self-respect, and self-compassion — on and off the field 🧠💪

Try repeating these self-love affirmations for athletes, today and all-season long! ⬇️

✨ I am more than my stats, times, or results.
✨ I trust my preparation and my ability to adjust.
✨ Mistakes are feedback, not failures.
✨ I show up with effort, confidence, and heart.
✨ I am allowed to grow at my own pace.
✨ I can push myself and be kind to myself.

💡 Remember:
The relationship you have with yourself sets the tone for the relationship you have with your sport, teammates, coaches, and others 🤝

Confidence grows when you learn to support yourself, not criticize yourself!
Show up as your own teammate 🤩
