Mental Conditioning Training: Why this is a KEY part of mental toughness

Conditioning, in physiology is a behavioral process whereby a response becomes more frequent or more predictable in a given environment as a result of reinforcement, with reinforcement typically being a stimulus or reward for a desired response. This means the more we do something, the better we can be prepared for specific events, and the better we can respond to the situations.

When athletes train to improve fitness levels it typically involves specific weight lifting programs and cardiovascular training. For example, if training to be a gymnast than calisthenics and powerlifting will be majority of the training. Now compared to a Tour Cyclist, who needs long hours of endurance workouts and VO2 Max training. Both athletes need to do physical conditioning, but the type varies depending on their sport.

One way of "conditioning" is not better than the others, it just matters what techniques will enhance their performance. Mental "conditioning" is an aspect that is definitely a by product of physical conditioning, but there is even more specific techniques that can enhance this overall capacity. Such as meditation, ice baths, mind games, puzzles and anything developing cognitive functionality. The focus of this type of conditioning is to improve decision making, problem solving, breathing techniques, mental focus and patience. When we enhance these skills, our ability to push our physical conditioning increases and has a butterfly effect for the potential of improvement. Remember, conditioning means so much more than just physical training, so focus in on all these components and see where you can improve to level up your performances.
