Win the Game of Life with Sport Psychology | Jonathan Fader | TEDxRutgers

What separates good athletes from elite athletes? While skill, talent and athletic ability all factor in, mental skills are the major difference maker. Mental conditioning is useful in all walks of life. Whether you're in the batter's box, on a date, or in the conference room giving a presentation, we are all looking to get better. Dr. Jonathan Fader, Director of Mental Conditioning for the New York Giants, will show you how you can use the techniques of sport and performance psychology to win at life. Dr. Jonathan Fader is a licensed sport, performance and clinical psychologist. He is the Director of Mental Conditioning for the New York Football Giants and also served as the team psychologist for the New York Mets for nine seasons. He is part of The New York City Fire Department (FDNY) Mental Performance Initiative. Dr. Fader is the Co-Founder of SportStrata and Union Square Practice in New York City which offer services to individuals and groups around mental health and conditioning. Fader is a frequent contributor to the national conversation on performance, appearing on CBS this Morning, CNN, Fox News, Bleacher Report and others. Represented by the Lavin Agency, he regularly speaks to groups on improving performance. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

I love this talk! One of the only Ted Talks I've seen where the speaker gets the audience to actively participate throughout - perfect for his subject!

[@SportsDrEddie]

Dr. Fader is on point with this presentation. He simplifies the core concepts essential to excellence in a way that can be easily applied to your performance area. Like physical training, it takes practice. Fader gives you a great start in this talk.

I just heard about him today through the Context Institute and I heard about the Context Institute through my university because I'm taking an intelligence assessment for my cognitive studies degree.

[@legalstudies9112]

A fantastic talk. This is taught in Art Of Living programs. It's magical. It is called Pranayama.

[@AsadKhan-lm6yr]

Can see where he earns his money. Really takes his time on a single point.

In 2018, several competitors at the Isle of Man International chess competition had their heart rates measured while they played. After a two-hour game, grandmaster Mikhail Antipovhad burned 560 calories - the equivalent of more than a five-mile run.Sep 18, 2019... DO NOT 'OVER THINK IT' OR YOU CAN RUN YOUR BODY DOWN BEFORE YOU EVEN ENTER THE STADIUM.

[@vlogcity1111]

Does our heart rate increase as we flex our brain??? just like it does when we tense our muscles to increase oxygen blood floor and energy synthesis

[@samuelbritt4992]

Matters a lot mate
