Perhaps the problem is not with developing the muscular memory of the movements required for your sport, but rather in the inability of your nervous system to instruct your body to perform those movements when you are under pressure.

Keep in mind, your nervous system instructs your body with every function, from keeping your heart beating to swinging a golf club to managing stress. Stress can and does affect your performance on and off the playing field, even if you don't recognize it. Have you ever felt anxious, unbalanced, tight or stiff when playing your sport? These are all attributable to an unbalanced nervous system and dramatically impact your physical performance.

Your nervous system responds to stress by making minute changes within the physical body. Some of these changes include:

• Muscle tightness or tension
• Restricted joint motion
• Decreased muscle flexibility
• Poor timing
• Unbalanced performance

I define "being in the zone" as a state of neurological and physiological balance that promotes optimal performance. Every athlete, from weekend to professional, seeks "the zone". Now, through a new understanding of the nervous system?s interactions with the physical body, you can learn to balance your neurological and physiological systems and put yourself in ?The Zone? with consistency.
