We all know that psychology is a pretty damn big deal when it comes to performing our best on competition day, but what are some tools that we can use to ensure that we are ready in this area? Today I am joined by Emma Hall of Vashti Performance. Emma is a registered psychologist who specialises in sports performance and today we go over COVID-19 and how to approach our goals and exercise during this time, negative self-talk and what to do about it, sports related anxiety, and round it off chatting about how to use language as a coach to positively influence our clients and their performance.

Isabella Von Weissenberg is no doubt one of the first names that comes to mind when you think strong female lifters in the IPF, and for good reason. Isabella has broken the squat world record EIGHT times in the u72kg class which is why we were all surprised in 2018 when she made the decision to the u63kg class. We talk about missing weight that year at the World Championships, the dieting process, disordered eating habits that can develop from a big weight cut, and fusing our identity with lifting. An important episode that takes a deep dive into the experience for Isabella and all she has learnt over the past few years being at the top of the game.
