Description

Welcome back THE HEAD GAME! During this week's episode, Host, Clinical Sport Psychologist Dr. Lee Picariello and Co-Host, Mental Strength Coach Jessica Ferdinand discuss "The Boiling Point". Further discussion will be based on the following:

• How much exposure to a monotonous and tiresome routine are humans willing to take before they mentally tap out? (Is this the definition of insanity?)
• On a psychological level: What does it truly mean to check or tap out?
• Are we in a battle with the media and the governments that we live under?
• Once you have tapped out, where do you go? What do you do?
• What are our natural instincts and impulses towards this state of exhaustion?
• What opportunities are available to us that can serve as an outlet for these concerns?
• In an industry that emphasizes repetition, how do athletes break complacency and diversify their routines? Are athletes more likely to “win” during this time of quarantine?
