The Ultimate Mental Toughness Guide: Roller Derby

Relatable book for any level of roller derby player. Lots of great tips and advice on overcoming negative thoughts and being more confident. Highly recommend!

Only halfway through, but I can't recommend this book enough. I had been put off Mind Gym because of all of the references to American sports I have little knowledge of, and had no idea that someone had written such a great holistic approach to mental training specifically for derby! There are fantastic techniques and philosophies in here, absolute gems for skaters and teams to make use of, and written by a qualified expert and relevant athlete.

This book is so incredibly complex and covers so many topics. Built like a self-help book for the player, this manual really helps with getting athletes of roller derby into better Kinsey's and how to be a great team player. I bought this on a whim, not sure what to expect. But what I got was amazing, and I'm so incredibly glad I bought it.

Ultimate mental toughness is not for the faint hearted, just as well cos we want to play Derby. Naomi Weitz is very knowledgeable about how to move forward by self reflection and self discovery. This is one of my all time favourite books so far. I love it and would recommend it.

Team practice can only help you so much, but working on your mental game is trickly. I thought this book was very helpful to train myself mentally and keep a positive and strong attitude to my physical training.
