SGP - Sport Psychology

During the wall-sit competition,there
were
probably several thoughts
going through your head.

“Why is she making
us do this?”

These thoughts are common
for athletes when completing
a difficult workout.

So, I wanted to research the
foundation of these thoughts.

I wanted to ﬁnd out
why people put themselves
through painful workouts,

and what makes them
do that painful workout
again and again.

I wanted to personally
experience what it is
like to do something physical
out of my comfort zone.

And to ﬁgure out why i personally push
myself to my physical limit every day.

o
“
Marathon runners talk about hitting 'the

unpleasantness. As you pass the five-hundred-meter mark, with three-
wall' at the twenty-third mile of
the race. What rowers confront isn't a wall; it's a hole - an abyss of pain,
which opens up in the second minute of the race. Large needles are being
driven into your thigh muscles, while your forearms seem to be splitting.
Then the pain becomes confused and disorganized, not like the windedness
of the runner or the leg burn of the biker but an all-over, savage

quarters of the race still to row, you realize with dread that you are not going
to make it to the finish, but at the same time the idea of letting your
teammates down by not rowing your hardest is unthinkable...Therefore,
you are going to die. Welcome to this life.
”
