Meraki Performance

Training individuals and teams to be at their best when it matters the most.

08/26/2024

This morning we had a coach from a program we work with reach out to us, and we love the question they presented…

“What is the best way to help my guys reset after their first day of school?"

YES! When coaches dig in and seek ways to help their athletes and teams strengthen their capacity to lock in and be where their feet are we get excited!

These are the skills that lead to their best in athletics and in life!

The reality is once school is back in session there is a lot more opportunity for distractions. Social interactions, school work, new schedules and routines, all these can impact your team and their ability to remain focused to the task at hand during practice today and this season.

Today let’s lead away from distraction, give our team a focus to gain traction and then challenge and support them in taking relentless action.

This is an opportunity to increase the capacity of your team, to remain focused despite the strong urge to look at the chaos going on around them.

As well as it being a great challenge for your leaders within the team to not only be the example, but be tenacious in their communication and accountability to hold the team to your standards and how you collectively want to show up everyday.

Today isn't just another day, it's THE day we decide to get 1% better.

Personalities are not scalable, they aren't replicable either, but for some reason this is the common approach to training and develop mental toughness.

First, establish a cohesive atmosphere and a common team identity, because without it, even the most talented individuals and teams are unable to fully tap into their capabilities.

Second, dive into the critical work of mental development. Here, build resilience, develop the mindset, emotional regulation, focus, concentration and cultivating the mental toughness required to navigate the challenges of competition and adversity. Teach individuals and teams not to simply perform, but in how to think, respond, and handle pressure.

Third, introduce advanced skills and strategies designed to maximize performance and activate the Flow state. This is where peak performance becomes attainable—not as a fleeting moment of excellence, but as a consistent, repeatable outcome.

It's actually through individuals and teams understanding their physiology, psychology and how both of these can be leveraged that their best can be brought out.

Heads or Tails Podcast with Dan Hunt: Episode 6 05/23/2024

"Heads or Tails" focuses on developing mental and emotional capacity within athletes and teams. It goes beyond resiliency hacks into how to truly develop mental toughness.

In this episode we discusses the importance of a unbeatable mindset in athletics and how that is the foundation to peak performance.

You need to move past just having a "positive" mindset, you need a performance-enhancing view of yourself, which involves being objectively aware of strengths and weaknesses. This mindset is not about being purely positive but about focusing on what enhances performance.

You need to right-size experiences, meaning properly contextualizing events to avoid amplifying them based on emotions. This helps in maintaining a balanced view that fosters growth and resilience.

And you need to know the facts about stress, not all stress is bad. Appropriate stress levels can enhance performance, while excessive stress needs to be managed. Similarly, fear should be seen as an informer rather than something to run from. Developing a mindset that uses fear to focus on actionable steps is crucial.

Check it out, we gave tons of value and answered a lot of questions that we hear all the time as we are out supporting the mental development of athletes and teams.

We are extremely fortunate to support teams from all sports, different levels, and a crossed the country.

It has afforded us the opportunity to share some unforgettable experiences and memories with these teams as they pursue competing at the highest level.

There is no better place to forge who you are and develop your resolve individually and as a team than in the unknown. To intentionally put yourself in a space that is foreign to test yourself and further develop self belief.

To date, this has been the most unique location we’ve ever worked with a team at. Spain and Portugal served to be a great proving ground and we couldn’t be prouder of the distance created from who we were stepping onto that plane to who we were coming back.

We are incredibly proud of Ferris State Bulldog Volleyball and thankful for giving us the opportunity to support you all in unleashing your greatness within.

"The last five years it's been our goal to win the regular season, that's what we've been working towards... We finally achieved it."

Meraki Performance got to reflect on the impact of Men's Basketball's hard work, chasing their goals and investing mentally in our training programs. They not only walked away this season as 23-24 WHAC regular season champions, they made a run to the Sweet 16 of the national tournament. Honored to be apart of their journey.

Testimonials like this are why Meraki Performance exist! It's our goal to help athletes and coaches develop their mental strength and grow their self confidence so they can achieve their goals.
