Push the Sled: 7 Skills to Build an Elevated Mindset and Amplify Performance in Any Sport
Jackson Pierce goes from hero to zero in four seconds. Despite an amazing comeback performance against the cross-town rival, he can’t get past the last play that ends the season, one game short of state.
Jess Whitlock is hired to improve the culture and mindset at Pine Lake High School. Too often, teams and individuals start strong, then fall apart when adversity or the pressure of the playoffs hit. Coach Whitlock and her father plan to use their experience as former Olympic bobsledders to bring fresh energy to the summer strength program. The new “Push the Sled” approach includes weighted sled workouts, which are proven to help athletes in all sports build strength.
But a strong physical game is not enough. It also takes a strong mental game to compete. Unfortunately, the specifics on how to develop a strong mental game are rarely addressed. By applying 7 Tactical Skills and practicing 12 Mental Drills, athletes at all levels will discover adversity is their advantage and pressure is a privilege.
Dive into this fast-paced, compelling story filled with practical strategies to build an elevated mindset and amplify performance in any sport!

I bought this book for the entire softball team that I coach after hearing the author on a podcast. I must admit, it exceeding my expectations. Using a narrative to drive home the 7 Tactical Skills makes the experience enjoyable and digestible especially for young busy athletes. I highly recommend the book, for coaches, leaders and athletes.
