And what about individual potential &#8211; what defines a person&#8217;s limits? Alex Hutchinson, author of <em>Endure: Mind, Body and the Curiously Elastic Limits of Human Performance<\/em>, discusses the notion of a two-hour marathon and climbing Mount Everest. He explored the extremes of human endurance, looking at both the physical and psychological limitations.<\/h4>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Key Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 High performing teams require the following five components:<\/p>\n<p>1. Shared understanding<br \/>\n2. Emotional stability<br \/>\n3. Efficient processes<br \/>\n4. Effective leadership<br \/>\n5. Psychological edge<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Seeing and believing in improvements in a lab, don\u2019t necessarily mean that it\u2019s going to lead to success on the pitch, field, ice or court. Sport is ruthless, but you need to have patience.<br \/>\n\u2022 Immediate improvements may not be obvious, but believe in the process and push yourself to explore new things.<br \/>\n\u2022 Fairness matters. Period.<br \/>\n\u2022 If you have a physical limit of weakness, then it almost certainly descends from the brain. Athletes are harder, better, faster, stronger\u2026 and fitter. But are you approaching the way you develop them mentally in the same way?<br \/>\n\u2022 Little innovations will lead to big performance wins.<br \/>\n\u2022 Find a balance between finding that 1% and also perfecting the other 99% that you can control. Both are as important as one another.<br \/>\n\u2022 By improving the controllables by just 1%, you can see a huge impact.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                            \n                            \n                            \n                                                    <\/div>\n                                        <div class=\"col visibly-hidden col--flex-align-right\">\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The final Summit Session on day one of the 2018 Leaders Sport Performance Summit at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2648,"menu_order":0,"template":"","categories":[21,33],"pathway":[],"topic":[],"sport":[],"class_list":["post-2647","vlog","type-vlog","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-human-performance","category-summit-session"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 -
