Six
Common Myths about what it takes to be Successful
in Olympic Target Shooting
...or Some Useful Hints for Breaking through
Performance Stagnation...
Myth
#1: Ideal scores in practice is a direct path
to equally high competitive performance.
Myth
#2: Underestimating the importance of Tactics, Nutrition,
and Strategy in preparation for high level of competitive performance.
Myth
#3: Strong but misguided trust or belief in being naturally
predisposed to performing better because of innate family traditions
(hunting
heritage, target
shooting tradition passed down through generations, recreational
shooting) or tips received from other amateur shooters.
Myth
#4: Over-reliance top brands of,
or the highest-priced equipment will bring the highest possible
competitive result.
Myth
#5: Self-directed hard work in practice is all I need
until I get to the national level, because after that my coach
will give me enough attention to fix my obstacles and bad habbits
in practice and competition. Not realizing that competition only
gets harder and stiffer at the national level among your teammates,
and thereby not budgeting your physical and mental resources well
enough to be ready to a higher commitment after elevating your
performance to
a new
level. Failing to accept the reality
that to sustain any new level of performance, one must have enough
resources in reserves to use in the future.
Myth
#6: Underestimating potential pitfalls in physical, psychological,
and technical fitness performance, and failing to anticipate possible
equipment trouble by having too much faith in using the most expensive
gear.
