Troy HorneMental Toughness For Young Athletes: Eight Proven 5-Minute Mindset Exercises For Kids And Teens Who Play Competitive Sports

It’s great for my 10 year oldI just bought the parent version

My two tennis players are obsessed with this book. It is geared toward high level athletes of all sports and resonates with all sports. It approaches the mental game of sports in a way that is easy for teens to understand and gives many exercises for them to practice daily. My kids keep a copy with their tennis bag and read it on the way to matches as a refresher. If they have an off day at practice they come home and re-read a chapter they think they need to focus on. The book also focuses on the importance of family and the family's support. It is an EXCELLENT read that I would recommend for any young athlete trying to find more success in their athletic journey.

The book is just okay. The concepts are great — classic even. It is not well written or well edited, and even youngsters can point that out. It does not read well, and does not have clear key main points. The chapters are muddled, the “step-by-step exercises” are vague and hidden in too much unedited text. It’s just not a great book.With such critical feedback, why the 4-star review?Because it’s a good idea. I don’t like the author’s continuous use of slang — honestly, it hurts my brain — but if others speak and read this way comfortably, this book could offer a relatable take on sports mental toughness with some editing.However, if you want your child to learn to consume quality literature, find another book. (By the way, children can read and understand at a much higher level than they can speak. Use that to their advantage.)As a book co-written by a youngster and father duo, dad should have sought out better editors to help with the project. You can have a relatable young voice and still create a well-written book. So I give it an E for Effort. I hope they can write something more compelling next time because I think they are actually on to something.

This book is fantastic! It’s about life values as much as the sport itself. It tells parents/coaches how to b encouraging! I gave it to my son who is a coach/athletic director & would have a sphere of positive influence around him!

I love this book! Great messages and super practical and helpful.

One of the most important books you can read it you have a young athlete that may be on an elite level. I love everything about this book, Moses is very relatable to the kids this book is designed for. I'm also on Troy's email list and he consistently sends great content, very useful information. Your kid can have all the talent in the world, but it's not enough these days, they must develop mental toughness to succeed in the long run.

This book is for our grandson my husband read it first to make sure it was suitable for him, and yes it is, thank you
