THE D1 EXPERIENCE   THIS is what you can expect: 6 a.m. strength & conditioning Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Imagine freshman year, everybody’s partying and getting to know each other, and you can’t stay out past 10 p.m. You will do it and you’ll go to rehab after your morning training. From there, you’ll have breakfast with your teammates and then have class from 9 a.m to 1pm. class. In the afternoon, you’ll have a 1hr film session and then a 2 hour practice. After practice, which will normally be done by 6 p.m. you’ll have dinner. Then you’ll go to study hall at 7 p.m. After study hall you’ll have more homework. You might get to bed by 12:30 a.m. or 1. You’ll do that four to five days a week. In the offseason, you’ll commit anywhere from 20 to 40 hours [a week for practice, training, and film study] depending on the week. In season though, it’ll be easily 40, 50, 60 hours. Some folks might spend more than that studying the playbook and watching film. If you’re always thinking of “what’s the biggest return on investment for my time,” if you’re never going to play or get in, that can be a little disappointing! Listen as GRANT NEWELL who played football at Oklahoma State University shares his D1 Experience. Grant shares his thoughts on:   The recruiting process Inside the locker room Training Camp Redshirting Off-season Strength & Conditioning Studying film Gameday The Collegiate Classroom & Expectations Stress Social life   With athletics, there’s a regimen, there’s a schedule. There’s this path to be great: Practice, practice, practice, work harder than the next person, practice, practice, play the game. It can be scary.   Would like to be interviewed on the Sports Mastery podcast? Do you know a former D1 athlete who would make a great guest? Contact: deshawn@sportsmastery.com

I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Andy Chitty. His son Sam attends Bucknell University in Pennsylvania. This was a conversation that uncovered several metaphors, ironies, and paradoxes of life. The interview with Andy was open, candid, and very informative. I would suggest any parent of a student-athlete to listen to this episode. We uncovered some valuable gems in this conversation. Some of the highlights of our conversation were: Doing things that you don't like to do...so that you can do the things that you want to do Minimizing the pressure on children to succeed Sports parents, politics, and perceived iniquities Lessons that pay dividends Intrinsic motivation Attending college 3000 miles away The psychology of transitioning from sports to life   The goal here is to share information, experience, stories, and dialogue to better help our student-athletes. Would you be willing to discuss the topics below?   If your new to the Sports Mastery podcast, check out the bullet points below. I've been interviewing the parents of student-athletes for the last 3 weeks. What is your #1 strategy that you use at home to develop discipline with your student-athlete?   When you find your student-athlete procrastinating how do you motivate him or her to take action?   How do you use reflective thinking to support achievement? What are your student-athlete’s barriers and limitations? Do you know who would make a great guest? If so, don't hesitate to connect us. Thanks. DeShawn Fontleroy

Everyone has dreams and goals. However, very few people actually achieve them. This is because the majority of us let our limits hold us back. These limits take various forms. Examples are physical inability, doubt, fear or a negative past. When you meet your personal limits, you feel resistance. This makes everything feel much harder to accomplish. Many people around the world are unable to hold on when it gets to this point. Therefore, they give up. It is important to learn how to beat your limits and overcome them. This enables you to achieve your goals. This episode explains how to push beyond your limits and achieve your biggest goals.     https://www.patreon.com/sportsmastery Over the last several months, I've been asked how listers could support the Sports Mastery podcast. After several hours of research, interviews, and phone calls I decided on creating a Patreon page. I did this to be all inclusive. Check out the link to review my goals for the podcast and to see the rewards for becoming a Patron. Financial support from you, the listeners is what keeps this going and the podcast really really needs more funding to grow not only to become financially stable but to grow. A budget to interview guests globally instead of locally is one of my dreams. Because of the intimate nature of the interviews, in-person conversations are necessary.  Your support will allow me to dedicate more time to working on the show. It will allow me to hire an audio editor, sound engineer, videographer, publicist, and social media manager. Put simply, the more you help out, the better quality of podcasts I can produce and develop for you.

After taking three weeks off to contemplate the future of the podcast, I arrived at a few interesting conclusions: It's time to start interviewing parents and coaches. I really feel that the parents are the first coaches of the student-athlete. To further this thought, I addressed my Facebook community. What I had in mind was to start a conversation with parents and coaches that would lead to an interview. The goal is to share information, experience, and dialogue to better help our student-athletes. Erin M. was the first to respond to my questions and survey.  What is your #1 strategy that you use at home to develop discipline with your student-athlete?   When you find your student-athlete procrastinating how do you motivate him or her to take action?   How do you use reflective thinking to support achievement and well being?   What are your student-athlete’s barriers and limitations? I am looking to do 200 interviews with parents and coaches over the next year. If you'd like to come on the show and share your thoughts, don't hesitate to reach out to me.   https://www.patreon.com/sportsmastery Over the last several months, I've been asked how listers could support the Sports Mastery podcast.

SIX STEPS TO SUCCESS WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT TO LEARN FROM THE PODCAST How To Program Yourself For Success How To Imagine Your Way To Success How To Relax & Turn Stress Into Success Set Goals: A Prerequisite To Success How To Use Negative Feedback To Create Success Disinhibit Your Personality & Fuel Success Success begins with a BLUEPRINT. This is how you prepare for the day. You do prepare, don't you? A blueprint is simply a map for the day. It helps you prioritize the important tasks on your agenda. There are two options for preparing your blueprint for the day. Either do it the night before, or early in the morning before your day has started. You only need ten to fifteen minutes to do this. Recent research indicates that if you create your blueprint the night before, rather than in the morning, your unconscious mind will actually work during the night figuring out how to fulfill your next day's plan, i.e., spell checking that essay, preparing the best presentation, solving team conflicts, talking to recruiters and team tryouts, or solving any conflicts that need to be addressed. So if you can, take time each evening to plan for the next day, and review your plan before bedtime. This review should focus on your most important activities, such as whom you will meet with and the purpose and objective of each appointment. Set specific time limits for your appointments. Also go over what projects must be worked on, and determine if you have reserved enough time to deal with them. *It's important to have your own blueprint recording system. This could be a standard daily journal or time planner, or you may prefer an electronic organizer or software program to create your blueprint. Just choose a system that works well for you. For best results keep it simple. Customize it to suit your own style - DeShawn Fontleroy, p. 67 Sports Mastery

An elite Student-Athlete will need to overcome adversity in order to be successful. Adversity comes in many shapes and sizes for a Student-Athlete. Some examples include injury, socio-economic status, hardship, trauma, depression, peer pressure, etc. So what does it take to overcome these obstacles? It takes a mental shift. Yes, you may have heard this before, but don’t roll your eyes just yet. This mental shift encapsulates multiple areas: recovery, nutrition, avoiding distraction, goals, success, cross-training, and recruiting. If your Student-Athlete wants to get a scholarship, go pro, or make an impact on the world, they need this mental shift to happen NOW! Julianne Soviero discusses priorities, goals, optimal performance and perseverance. She exemplifies the ability to overcome injury and lead a successful athletic career. Now she teaches countless award-winning athletes as a pitching coach. Julianne speaks truth to what it takes to be a four-time academic All-American (Division I) athlete and the mindset it takes to get there. Listen and learn how your Student-Athlete can make the mental shift to overcome any type of adversity.

Today we welcome DeShawn Fontleroy of Sports Mastery. Sports Mastery was created to bridge the communication gap of between the student athlete and their parents and coaches. He begins by mentoring athletes first on how to overcome fear and then by making the most of any obstacle or setbacks they may face. All while challenging their sacrifices and social conflicts to help them reach their goals. DeShawn begins with many of his clients by first explaining the process of fear, followed by a list of everything that they find to be a fear in their own life. Common fears are rejection, criticism, ill health, poverty etc., which as DeShawn says, “Are all taught by our friends, family and environment.” He describes the only true fears we’re born with is the fear of heights and of loud noises. These are fears engrained in us, but not often found when looking at what cripples us on a daily basis. The true definition of fear is an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous and likely to cause pain or threat. DeShawn says, “The opposite of confidence is doubt and fear.” Your desire to improve has to include overcoming that fear factor if you truly want to overcome the emotions that are holding you from acting towards your dreams. Many of us have these fears when it comes to making lifestyle changes or even a taking a break from things like sugar, caffeine, alcohol and refined carbs. It’s easy to wonder if you’re even capable. Well, you are! Christa’s corner stones to fitness: Daily Movement Eating healthy Positive mental thoughts with Mind Zoning® and meditation Community Life comes with challenges and the brain likes to go back into old habits in these times in an act to keep you safe. If your setback is a place that returns you to community it will bring you back to a place of progression. Being a part of a community, with mentors or what DeShawn calls a “corner man,” that always demonstrates acceptance and inclusion, will make you feel welcomed no matter where you are in your journey. This support will fuel you forward. Sports Mastery Champion’s Blueprint Legacy – This isn’t solely on what your goals look like, but how do you want to be remembered for the work you’ve put in? What are you doing every day which will reflect this? Vision – When you have goal, what does it look like when you get there and how is it going to feel? Visualizing this goal will help your brain to follow that specific emotion, making it far more achievable when you get to work. Mindset – What systems and strategies are you going to have in place for success and for setbacks? Success intoxication, as DeShawn describes, is when you fall back into an old mindset or set of habits when achieving a goal quickly. Keep moving forward! The Power of Community Both Fitlandia and Sports Mastery are deeply ingrained in the concept of community as a fundamental component to success, including the need to be deeply intimate with yourself. This intimacy includes all your accomplishments and your weaknesses. It’s important to know how to recover without feeling guilty when setbacks occur and to have that community of people in that time of need. Recovering from setbacks quickly: Have a plan in place so when you do have a setback, you immediately know what you’re going to do to recover Have a couple people who keep you humble no matter how successful you are Have a few “cheerleaders” you can always turn to DeShawn says, “It’s all about planning for success and knowing what you’re going to do when fear creeps in so you can get back to the road moving forward.” Make sure to list out your fears, work towards your goals by accepting the wins and the setbacks and go to iTunes and rate Fitlandia and Sports Mastery both with five stars!

The less you fear, the more power you will have and the more fully you will live.” - 50 Cent in The 50th Law Cringe Moment Kids are different than adults - have progressions Keep it simple, don't have too many plays Progressions Using your own body weight is a better starting place than jumping straight into weightlifting Focus on the process vs. the outcome Overcoming Fear Start by having the athlete list their fear on paper. Often when they put them down on paper, they realize many of them are not real. Then list your hopes and dreams. Create a desire map where they list their challenges and limitations. Have the parents do the same thing. Growth Mindset Bouncing back from hardship is a key to teach athletes. It's the only way to grow. After a setback, go back and watch your performance, then use positive visualization to picture what doing it right looks like Accelerate Deep Training It's a process - the key is the quality of your reps Know where your athlete is at - if they are working on a strength - put them against higher level competition. If they are working on a weakness - put them against some weaker competition. Building Culture Communication between coaches and athletes is key. Assistant coaches need to be listened to and empowered Immediate feedback, both good and bad - often works best Rewards and Recognition When athletes do something off the field - in the classroom, in the community - you can use social media to highlight their accomplishments Connecting with and impacting kids DeShawn is coaching a kid with ADHD, it has challenged him and made him a better coach by working with a kid who has different needs and challenges The one that got away DeShawn's team lost to their rival last year because of some poor coaching, they have evaluated what went wrong and analyzed how to make sure that it won't happen again Best books Good to Great - Jim Collins The 50th Law - 50 Cent and Robert Green Free gifts: - PDF of The Desire Map - PDF of How to Succeed - Free 1/2 hour consulting Go to Sportsmastery.com/winningyouth to take advantage of this great offer!
