DESCRIPTION:

Much like Jeff's own cheer coaching strategy, he walks you through, incrementally, so that success is more probable and your results are quantifiable.
Read unBlocked: The Walls Come Tumbling Down by expert Sports Performance Coach, Jeff Benson today if you're searching for a solution to the sport's most challenging problem.
EDITORIAL REVIEWS:
I am not a cheerleader/gymnast, a parent, or a coach. I am a mountain biker who has gained insight and results from reading this book, Unblocked: The Walls Come Tumbling Down.
I am so glad that I took a chance. It turns out that mountain biking and gymnastics have similarities because they are sports where we ask our bodies to do scary things, and we must trust our skills and equipment. The explanation of the ANS response made so much sense to me. I had a Block and now I knew why my body became frozen, and how I could just forget how to do something that I had done hundreds of times. I started working with the material and doing the mental exercises.
I have since moved beyond the Block and have regained my ability to do this drop, and have a new way to reflect on my cycling, and working with obstacles. Even if you aren't a competitive cheerleader, give this book a try. gaillardia - 5 Stars
