Teleseminar #5 Fierce vs. Furious

The Coaching Toolbox has hundreds of free resources for basketball coaching and for basketball players.

Teleseminar interview #5 at the Coaching Toolbox is now live and you can access it here. Our guest is sports psychologist Dr. Brian Goonan and his topic is “Fierce vs. Furious.” In the interview Dr. Goonan explains that a “fierce” mindset is an asset to an athlete involved in competition, but that the athlete needs to have mental breaks to maintain that mindset during the active segments of the competition. The extreme mindset he describes as “furious” is counterproductive in that it keeps the athlete at a peak of competitive mental arousal which is impossible to maintain throughout an entire competition.

The interview is a 15 minute segment of Dr. Gs ideas on the subject. He will be back to discuss the subject further later in the summer. He has a lot of information that basketball coaches and basketball players will find useful.
