“The difference between adult athletes and kid athletes is this: kids are excited and it’s all about figuring it out. However, adults, we overfocus on the stats and lose sight of the movement, which is so fundamentally important,” says Dr. Justin Ross. 

Dr. Ross is a clinical psychologist with a focus on performance psychology. He’s ran 11 marathons - finishing Boston six-times - and has completed two Ironman Triathlons. Professionally, he co-founded the MindBodyHealth clinic and works with athletes to teach mental health skills to improve performance. No Excuses Podcast host, Sean Corvelle, talks with Dr. Ross about...

-Why movement, pushing through obstacles and feeling the flow of movement, is critical to the human experience

-His philosophy for sports psychology coaching

-What is emotional regulation and how to temper pre-race nerves?

-How one-minute of slow rhythmic breathing can drastically influence your mental state
