Parameters
While reading about the different strategies for athletes to participate in for managing stress, I found the problem solving strategy would be the one that I would advise athletes to use to manage anxiety. I believe by being able to identify the problem and work through that problem will benefit the athletes that suffer with anxiety. In the text it list several steps to take while problem solving, such as coming up with solutions to the problems, figuring out the consequences to those solutions, coming up with a proposal, and executing that proposal (Williams & Krane 2021). I think with most athletes much of the anxiety they experience is from lack of confidence. If athletes are aware of the problem and implement the problem solving strategy they are less likely to experience high levels of anxiety and will exude more confidence.
In the additional article I read, it informed me of the internal and external workload that college athletes experience. One of the significant problems that athletes experience is time management. Athletes are given a certain amount of time to train for the particular sport they are involved in. While juggling training and their studies the levels of stress begin to build and become a problem that can hinder both school work and their athletic performance. It also informed me of the possible options for athletes to train at certain times when they are mentally and physically present during practice. The article also discusses how “velocity movement” has improved athletes ability to see how they are performing in that moment. This gives athletes and coaches the ability to observe their performance in that moment helping them to determine if it is higher than normal stress levels affecting their performance( Lopes, Ufting et. al 2020). While I do believe using velocity movement as one way to determine if levels of stress where high in that moment, I still think the book had better insight on how to manage stress and anxiety when one is an athlete.
