Description

Our specialty is helping athletes bust slumps, overcome fears, and return to peak performance in cycling. Whether it’s freezing in competition, struggling with nerves on descents, or losing confidence in tough races, Sports Slump Busting gives cyclists the tools to get unstuck and back on track.

Every athlete, no matter the sport, hits slumps. Skills you’ve mastered disappear. Confidence fades. Nerves take over. You start losing to opponents you should beat—and no amount of extra practice seems to fix it. That’s because slumps are not just physical—they’re mental.

Sports Slump Busting is one of the only books written specifically to help athletes and teams recognize and break free from performance slumps. With step-by-step strategies, breakthrough exercises, and practical tools, this book shows you how to regain control, overcome fears, and get back to peak performance.

Testimonials

I’ve downloaded your 14 Steps and have been listening to them with my son. It is having a very positive impact on both of us! I am so grateful that I discovered your work.

Mohammed

Dr. G, I just finished reading This is Your Brain On Sports and I absolutely loved it! It opened my eyes to what really causes athletes to fall apart and it will help me be more effective with my players!

Frank

An eye opening approach to working with athletes. As a former athlete and current coach this book has opened my eyes to outside factors that can truly have a very debilitating effect on the performance of athletes. The challenges of sport require mind and body to be in sync and athletes may experience the ripples of underlying problems coming out in their play that may have no relation to sport, and may not have happened recently. The authors have found a new approach to understanding and treating the most unreachable athletes. I suggest this book for any counselor, coach, teacher, parent and or athlete that may be looking for answers as to “Why?”. It’s all relevant when it comes to life experiences and this book explains why sport is no exception.

A real breakthrough book for athletes! … I was able to put the breakthrough therapy of `brainspotting’ to immediate use with my clients and the results were spectacular! … The authors wrote this book so that athletes could also benefit. … I recommend this not just for therapists who work with athletes, but for athletes themselves!

Amazon Reviewer

This is a GREAT tool to use with any sport parents. I had the parents…listen to it in one of our meetings and I couldn’t believe the response. It opened their eyes. Doc, you have such a great way of presenting things. Your humor makes parents willing to listen to all the things they’ve been doing wrong and what they need to do to change without getting defensive. Bless you

Ray B

I was listening to your “Parents” audio today on my drive and I have to say it opened my eyes! Especially the part where you talk about “good” and “bad” nervous. What a life skills gift to teach parents how to teach their kids how to roll with the “juice” that naturally comes up as you’re about to perform! The “Juice” is normal, it is what will fuel you. Don’t fear “The Juice” embrace it. Such a great audio! Thank you.

Wesley

My coaching staff listened to the audio with me and are all very excited, so excited in fact that we are hosting a workshop for parents. I shared the audio directly to a couple of parents. The response was so positive these parents have actually volunteered to participate in helping to run the parent workshop. They listened to the audio’s and consciously put into practice some of your parent guidelines. As a result, not only are they enjoying closer relationships with their children, but the kids are enjoying their sport again!

Tim

I just love your new book! Parents on my team were driving me nuts and making me really angry, getting in the way of me doing a decent job of coaching. This book has helped me get things in perspective and to recruit my parents to help me! I feel like I now have a much better understanding of where they’re coming from and how to effectively work with them. Thank you! Thank you! I won’t quit coaching after all!

John B

Thanks so much! I finally learned how to get my parents on the same page that I’m on. They’re actually helping me now! Go Figure! It has made things so much much easier for me to do my job. I think this is a critically important book for coaches in any sport.

Jack

Dr. G, You did a GREAT job with 14 Steps. I can’t tell you how much it has helped me relax and focus! My congrats and sincere thanks.

Gianluca

Coach G, Thanks for the downloads. I absolutely love the content. You have opened my kids eyes and I have seen the difference immediately in their smiles and improved play. What a gift!

Kris

Congratulations on your program, “14 Steps!” They are truly outstanding and thoroughly cover all the mental aspects of sports which are challenging to athletes and coaches. We are using them this year as part of our weekly training program and the kids love your stories and teachings!

Ken S.

Your new program has really helped both of my kids even though they are in different sports! My daughter used to get too nervous before she played and she told me how much more relaxed and focused she feels now and I can see it in her level of confidence and success on the field. My son had a long history of doing better in practice than competition, leaving him frustrated and us not knowing how to help him. What a difference I see in him now when he competes under pressure. Thanks so much — you’re a great teacher!

CR – Parent

I want to let you know how much I enjoy and respect your series, “14 Steps.” I coach a small high school and your program not only helped my team play better under pressure, it significantly helped my 17 year old daughter who’s a three sport athlete. She used to think too much and get too nervous going into games. Now she plays the way she practices, relaxed and aggressively. Thanks for your product.

Gail

Amazing Book! Purchased this book for my husband and once he started reading the book, he couldn’t put it down. He said it was fascinating and so “spot on”. My husband played professional ball and my son is currently at a Div I college playing ball. My husband said that if he knew what this book speaks of back when he played pro ball, he would have had a longer pro career. Every athlete, coach, and parent (especially father) of an athlete will benefit from reading this book.

I have downloaded your 14 Steps to Mental Toughness and have been listening to them with my son. I must say that it is having a very positive impact on both of us!! We live in the UK where this type of science is not well known, but now I am persuaded by it! I am so grateful that I discovered your work as my son is only 17 so has plenty of time to benefit.

Mohammed

I’ve been coaching 20 years and this is one of the most versatile mental toughness training sets I’ve run across. It’s loaded with great exercises and stories that really work. I strongly recommend it to all my athletes.

Dennis

I’ve been a competitive cyclist for a long time and have always struggled with pre-race nerves and psyching myself out during my races whenever I started to hurt. What I’ve learned from you has finally helped me overcome these problems and now I’m able to race the way I always knew I could!

William

I have read your books and listened to your audios my entire life. I was a competitive swimmer when I was younger and recently completed my first Ironman. I am now training for my pro license. Your products have really helped me achieve a success I used to only dream of!

Ashley

Dr. G, I had been struggling with underachieving for a long time. My great practice times never translated into fast races. I knew it was my nerves but didn’t realize that I was making myself nervous by focusing too much on my times and splits! Your program has really opened my eyes and helped me see that I needed to focus more on what I was doing and not thinking! And now I am competing the way I train! My confidence is way up and my nerves are finally under control! Thanks for your good work!
