Overcoming Mental Blocks, Anxiety, and Low Confidence in Gymnastics with Rebecca Smith

Today on the podcast, I had a great chat with former gymnast, coach, and Gymnastics Mental Skills expert Rebecca Smith. Founder and CEO of Complete Performance Coaching, Rebecca helps high achievers thrive under pressure allowing kids to reach peak performance as well as maximum enjoyment. In the last few podcast episodes, we've been dancing around mental blocks, what to do and how to help. I’ve received countless emails and messages about sons or daughters struggling with back walkovers, back handsprings, and flyaways. So many parents, gymnasts, and coaches want to know what they can do to help get through freezing up on skills, nerves, anxiety, dwindling confidence, and mental blocks, particularly as season approaches. Rebecca has worked with 100s of parents, clubs, and athletes on how to help get through mental blocks. We deep dive into her experience helping people, and what works to overcome these challenges that so many gymnasts face. We discuss: 05:25 Mental blocks are biological. 09:54 How to overcome the fear response in your athletes. 14:33 The importance of building a foundation of awareness. 18:55 What’s the difference between success and failure? 22:50 Why the brain wrestles between logic and emotion. 26:38 How growing can impact fear. 29:23 Communication is critical for success. 34:45 The relationship you have with yourself is your biggest asset in overcoming challenges. 39:00 The importance of putting the child’s confidence at the forefront. 41:56 Normalizing mental health and normalizing fear. 46:00 Parental pressure. 50:51 Kids learn more from how you behave than what you say. 53:14 Do you really need to post competition results on Instagram? 56:19 What to do if you feel like you’re getting burned out. 1:00:59 What to do if your gym is not open to change. 1:05:56 Free zoom for parents: How to help your kid, your athlete, or your gymnast overcome a mental block without being too controlling or too involved.
