Teaching and Learning Body Languages is Vital

Body Language is the biggest visual act that can scare or attract an athlete and a coach in the play of sports.

What do I mean by "body language" you ask?

Body language would be described as the way people read others by the posture and movement of the body.

Perfecting this requires you to show that you aren't fatigued from the beginning and the ending of gameplay. This becomes completely mental to your opponents questioning why this individual still have that capacity to continue for such a period of time and not break. This will intimidate opponents into thinking they can't keep up with you and make coaches feel they should avoid an individual.

Body Languages that visually depicts your state of mind (it works vice-versa).

Eyes: Stare down opponents. The act of looking away can symbolize intimidation. They're also your keys to finding tendencies of your opponent(s)

Conditioning: Avoid resting hands on your waistline or above your head, and taking a knee or squatting. Run from beginning to end of a play. A dead period should be a constant jog. Don't the constant condition build and you become immune to feeling like it's hurting you instead.

Posture: Your athletic position or posture should always be the same. Scouting in film sessions can depict when an individual reaches the fatigue state by studying postures. Also, studying can reveal predictive traits of your own or opponent(s) traits. 

These are all keys to getting an edge on your opponents to know when you can take advantage of a situation. Practice endurance and body reading with teammates or film session. Coaches, teach this to your athletes to create an elite group of individuals that will help become a more structured and sound team. Putting out a film of a relentless individual(s) will make opponents fear and question if they can keep up with the pace. 

Remember you have to win in every aspect of the game to best great. Learn to use any and every of your resources.

Cheats to Get an Athletic Scholarship and Without Athleticism

Do you need some tips to becoming a collegiate athlete? Want to become the top performer for your team? Want to have your college paid in full? Whether you're in high school or walk onto the team of choice, we will give you tips and recourses you need to succeed.

The last and final cheat is to be mentally competitive and smart. Always have a winner attitude. Don't let stats or the name bring your level of play down. Think of yourself as to biggest person on the playing field and want to to get better than the person that stands in front of you. Also be intelligent of the playing field.

Some collegiate players aren't good athletes but still performed good enough to get noticed and picked up. In other words, you don't have to be superhuman for an athletic scholarship but physically and mentally sound can get you a cut of the pie.

How To Make Great Decisions On And Off The Field

We all had and still have dreams of being something amazing when we grew up. Whether it was a fireman who saved lives or an athlete that every fan proudly chant their name.  We're here to just question when you're about to make a decision, how you should consider attacking it first before you finalize and go through with that decision.

Life is full of regrets and as always come from making the wrong decisions. These regrets can be premature, current or eternal. an example of each can be described in a way of a car accident. Premature regrets would come as they and a crash while not wearing a seatbelt resulting in bumps and bruises, just enough to make you consider wearing a seatbelt. Concurrent would be getting into an accident while not wearing a seatbelt and get projected out the car and still live. The phone call your family received from you being in critical conditions or in a coma will put heavy regret in your heart for the circumstance they had to bare from your bad decision. Results from this can possibly rewire you to wear a seatbelt your entire life so your family won't have to live with that feeling ever again.  Lastly, eternal is one you can't really come back from. What's done is done. the would be in the instants of a fatal crash. This would cause endless grieving from family and friends. You can't regret and, it makes your family regret they didn't inform you how important a seatbelt is for your safety.

That last section was a very in-depth explanation, only because that situation works perfectly with showing the importance how choices made in life can be a very critical decision. We want you to have a very easy and quick technique to making a critical decision and a short period of time. Whether it's a split second or a few days.

There are two easy methods you can use that covers majority of indecisive situations you may be in. First one is a more well-known method where you weigh out your choices, Pros and Cons. It serves a purpose to makes you think deep and hard of what pros and cons can come out of a decision. From here similarities and proportional results can be crossed out. You think hard into your choices for pros and cons. From here you eliminate and weigh out what is left behind to make a final analyzed selection.

Method two comes for a quick and effective analogy, called if-then statement. Simply one makes a hypothesis followed by a conclusion. For this simple geometry theory, it tends to answer logic made in everyday thinking.

If-then statements are also used by lawyers in proving actions are in line, it provides an easy way to say a correct statement when there are minimal statements that can oppose it. The statement is said then flip and stated oppositely. Neither can be contradicting of it or it will become a false statement. False statements would be "if I made the team, then I'm a terrible player.... if I'm a terrible player, then I made the team." This clearly isn't true, so if you're a terrible player you're likely not to make a team. A true statement would be more like "if a TV is projecting, then power is provided" which is true and "if power is provided, then TV is projecting" which is also correct will conclude to hold to be a completely whole theory. As you know a theory will continue to be true until another theory can overrule it. For example, think of the court system in which a person is innocent until proven guilty. Until someone can prove the actions are out of line, you can knock that action.

The more realistic way to get the best results would be to use method 1 and 2. Remember these methods are validations to making a final decision. We want the best for our athletes, so using more than one will possibly get you a more efficient result. Any bad factors that can result from an action, mark it can count as double. It some may lead to you being arrested, which may cost you your scholarship or career. It's not worth losing 150k to 200k depending on how many years you'll spend in college. For example, if you like going out and partying make sure the where you got is safe or trouble-free.  Remember as an athlete whether in high school or college one move can be drastic. People that'll be around you wanting to start trouble are usually locals or people that have nothing good going for themselves.  The safest option if you like partying is to provide your on home or have a few athletes with homes that you and your friends can go enjoy yourselves. Least that can happen is an athlete fight which can be resolved without the law, or cops show up and you nicely explain to them the occasion and why you're having it. Most if the time you'll have a really fun night with your friends with no problems occurring. In that decision, you can probably pick out all the good and bad that comes out of It and why it's so effective while having minimal flaws. 

Please feel free to go do more research with decision-making, it'll help give you knowledge which will lead to being a more accountable student, athlete and loved one. Sorry if there were some confusions with the reading, but making decisions can be confusing and lead you down the wrong path. Remember off the field is more important then on, you can't play if you're in jail or got kicked off a team. Too many great players never get the chance because of bad decisions.  Doing drugs, hanging with the wrong people, and carelessness will ruin lifelong dreams and throw a lot of money down the drain for a little moment of psychological pleasures. 

We need a future for our athletes and for the next generation and so on. Make a change in yourself before your actions drag others along with you... friends, siblings, new teammates that wouldn't know better.

Appreciate you guys reading, please share with other athletes or athletic friends you may know. A little reading can help people long down the road. 

What To Do As A Student Athlete???

Well first and foremost, handle your business before your college career end. The #1 most important thing is to take control of your education.

Don't blame others for not coming out of college successful or satisfied with your degree. Understand what your college have to offer. Realize you have to work just as hard in the classroom as you would on the field. The degree you choose for college will not be easy the receive. You will have to earn your title just as you would on the field.

Don't allow yourself to fall in the group of athletes that get setup for failure. Remember most of these programs don't care for your grades if you're on a full scholarship. Just as long as you get by, they have done their part.

Now remember the setup for failure I brushed on? This is the slow uppercut you get hit with by your advisers. This act is a process of perhaps miscommunication and auto-scheduling. This consist of being told "we have set your schedule up already," not including you in the process. This is a saying to make you get comfortable with having easy "A" classes. Truth is, questioned it question in the degree you are pursuing and they'll have no other choice back to give you classes you need.

Also,enrolling you in so-called easier courses to bump GPA. Take all the classes you need first then end your senior year with these easy classes or as needed. These courses are usually athletic courses or a course that sound like it has nothing to do with your major.

I once had a coach tell me "Use the school, don't let the school use you." In other words, squeeze as much as you can out of your scholarship that you can get without feeling ripped off. Eat all the meat off the bone. Don't throw after your change from a dollar. Make the day you graduate feel like it did when you were choosing a college, but with jobs lined up.

You have to be hungry and set out a realistic goal that is achievable. Other than your sport advisers, go talk to an adviser in the department you want to receive your major. Plan out a real list of objectives to follow. This will save you a headache and sense of hopefully upon finishing your school.

Be real to yourself. Stop relying on the pros to get you anywhere. If you go pro, an education will help you manage and make smarter decisions. You are worth nothing if you base college off making it pro.

Lastly, do what you came to college to do. Play ball!!! Enjoy college life responsibly. You only life it once and can enjoying it for the rest of your life. Your enjoyment will come from leaving college debt free, meet lifetime friends that bled with you and had your back the entire way through, and an achievement that is so prestige no one can deny your hard working and leadership abilities.
