  • jim loehr : question

    federer seems to be showing alot more emotion now after shots (both possitive and negative) than he did during his 4 1/2 year reign as #1.do you think this is a good thing ? it definitely does not look like the video of nadal

    It's a good question:

    In my experience, the critical indicator is the expression of negative emotion. Allowing negative emotion to materialize has greater potential to disturb the delicate chemical balance associated with one's Ideal Performance State. When a player's confidence suffers, expressions of negative emotion are typically more evident and predictable.

    This has clearly been the case with Roger. Succussfully navagating periods of poor play, which will inevitably come from time to time, is controlling the natural tendency to allow your chemistry to turn negative. This is a critical component of mental toughness.
