Sport Psychology Expert Releases Book that Unlocks Winning Edge

August 5, 2018 by Post

Whether it’s the golfer who chokes at a critical moment or the cross country runner who has difficulty maintaining focus during competition, athletes can benefit from identifying their mental game strengths and weaknesses.

“The Winning Edge,” a book by Lakeland resident Dr. Lenny Giammatteo, helps athletes develop their God-given abilities through sport psychology principles and strategies. It is available starting Aug. 6.

Using inspiring stories about athletes, motivational quotes, proven sports psychology principles, and practical strategies that help readers identify and assess their strengths and weaknesses, the book offers guidance toward positive outcomes in sports and life.

“This book provides a secret weapon for athletes to build mental game strategies that will enhance their performance,” Giammatteo said. “Most athletes know very little about sport psychology principles and spend little time developing their mental game fitness. This book gives athletes the tools to become mentally strong and persevere to success.”

“The Winning Edge” enables readers to:
• Discover the power of positive self-talk and positive imagery
• Learn to strengthen and condition your mental game
• Learn to deal with fear and use it to your advantage
• Learn to be mentally resilient in the face of adversity
• Discover your unique personality and how it affects your sport performance

Giammatteo is a human performance and sport studies professor at Southeastern University. He earned a bachelor’s degree in Biology, Health and Physical Education from Florida Southern College, a master’s degree in Educational Leadership and Guidance Counseling from Liberty and Nova Southeastern University, and a doctorate in Human Development from Nova Southeastern University.

He is a certified mental trainer in sports and is qualified at the master level in sport psychology with the American Coaching Effectiveness program. He has a Master Level Golf Psychology certificate from the International Golf Psychology Association. Giammatteo is the sport psychology coach for the Southeastern University athletic teams. He has helped hundreds of athletes throughout the community increase their mental toughness and go on to win dozens of titles.

“The Winning Edge” costs $25, and shipping is free. To purchase a copy of the book or for more information, visit www.championthinking.com; call or text (863) 529-6689; or email lrgiammatteo[at]seu[dot]edu.
