Unit 1 Imagination

Imagination is one of the greatest tools used in sport psychology to enhance performance. This is done by enhancing motor skills and muscle memory and it is also used for motivation. Studies have shown that practicing imagery, along with regular training, enhances muscle memory and sport skills faster and further than regular training alone. In a competitive world where only the slightest improvement can be the difference between a champion and a runner-up, we need to take all the opportunities that we can to become elite at what we do.
