The Sports Performance Assessment (SPA) is a really fun and exciting way to test your mental toughness – but the best part about the SPA is that it’s also your own powerful personal feedback and teaching system.Taking the test is easy to do and can be completed in just a couple of minutes. The best way to use the SPA is to answer each honestly without thinking too deeply into each question – instead, try to go with your immediate responses, as this will best reflect your true mental toughness level.Upon completing the SPA your scores are provided in colorful graphs and scoring icons, along with your unique personal feedback and performance instruction notes. Read the feedback carefully and begin to implement the tailored training system into your athletic regime for best future results. The training skills you will receive are based on scientifically-proven sport psychology performance enhancement skills delivered in easy-to-follow language. As a bonus, the SPA offers another great feature – you can email your results to your PC, allowing you to keep a personal folder and print your own personal performance manual to take with you to the field!Take SPA several times during each season, spacing your tests roughly 2-3 weeks apart. The SPA’s robust trend data feature keeps all your scores for you, making it easy to quickly compare various test points through out the season and actually “see” your improvement.Personal, instructive, game changing – The Sports Performance Assessment!www.drstankovich.com
