a great book to read right before new year's & all of the push for resolutions. it's all about mindset - thus "mind gym." be willing to try and fail.

Parts of this were genius. Other parts didn't stand out to me as worthwhile. But that's the name of the game. I'll come back to add quotes/notes.

I put this book down so many times, hoping to come back to it ready to return. The first few chapters, good and informative. The rest was just... stories that left you wanting. Felt like he was expanding on the points talked about in the first several chapters but not in an actionable way, where you felt you had a new method to adapt to your sport mindset. Instead just told lackluster “so this is a coo l thing I did” way.

Brilliant, tools to use, sound theories. I absolutely loved this book, hopefully I can put some of its ideas to practice.

A solid/quick read in building performance. I learned a few things that I hope will serve me well in building up my athletic confidence.

This will be really helpful for improving my running- Mack gives concrete examples of how athletes and performers can work on the mental component of training, on and off the practice field.
However, there was something grating about the half finished anecdotes and campy prose. I’ll be looking for similar books with better writing.

Easy read that sums up some mindset for success talking points nicely. However, 90% of the examples used in the book were male (probably because the author work(ed?) With baseball & football players. It would have been nice to hear more stories relating to female athletes, other than a brief sentence here or there. Additionally, the athlete references in the book have not aged well, as many have been exposed as using PED's.
Still, when working on your mental game this is a quick read to help you reset your brain.
