Fear of Injury for Athletes: Sport Psychology Strategies to Cope Better

The fear of injury is a major challenge for all athletes in contact sports and non-contact sports alike, such as motocross and baseball. Mental game coach, Dr. Patrick Cohn, discusses how you can manage the fear of injury and the fear of re-injury in sports and athletics. After an injury some athletes develop a fear to perform the same skill they were injured on. They worry about re-injury and this prevents them from performing their best in competition.
Dr. Patrick Cohn is a sports psychology coach to junior, collegiate, and professional athletes at Peak Performance Sports, LLC. #sportsinjury #fearofinjury
