2. One excellent resource available in this course is the Premier Sport Psychology Mental Training System workbook. It gives many hands-on strategies to use with athletes. By examining the theoretical framework of a section from the workbook, you will be better able to apply the strategies to your professional life.

It also allows you to evaluate the strategy as a whole for strengths and weaknesses you may not otherwise have seen.
