Ep. 157 - Learning from the Lifestyle Challenges of Professional Players
In this episode, Brian and Josh discuss the lifestyle challenges of professional tennis players. This conversation is based on an article in the International Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology by Saul J. Shrom, Jennifer Cumming & Sarah-Jane Fenton titled “Lifestyle Challenges and Mental Health of Professional Tennis Players: an Exploratory Case Study”. The study analyzed current and former professional tennis players of various levels and the challenges that they faced on the professional tours. It looked at views shared on the Behind the Racquet Instagram page which was started by Noah Rubin. The co-hosts analyzed the research article, discussed certain challenges that professional players and other elite players face, and offered tactics that players can utilize to prepare themselves for these realities and potentially alleviate some of these concerns.
