Having studied Psychology, Fitness & Nutrition at University, Duncan went on to further qualifications including becoming a certified Mind Factor Coach with a Diploma in Sports NLP-Hypnosis Psychology. Duncan has recently started working with numerous clients as he looks to expand and take on more athletes in various sports. Duncan is based in Leeds, however he can travel to your venue or location. Duncan not only does 1-to-1 sessions, he will also work with a group/team and is available for workshops and seminars.
Duncan understands the word “Psychology” can be a little off putting to most people, as invariably it deals with a disorder. Patients only see a psychologist if there is something wrong with themselves, eg – stress, anxiety, work related issues, family issues etc. Duncan however, focuses on performance breakthrough. When a new client comes to him, it is because they are not getting what they feel they should be out of their performance. Duncans’ job then, is to change their habits and way they think to help break down these barriers, so they can reach new levels in their performance.
Duncan does not like to leave any stone unturned when dealing with improved performance, and so he looks at the health and fitness element and has recently become a qualified Personal Trainer and Sports Nutritionist. Working with dedicated athletes and clients who just want an improved lifestyle, Duncan will formulate a simple yet effective fitness programme that meets the individuals requirements and situation.
Duncan also helps his elite athletes with management. This includes logistical planning, sponsorship seeking, structuring practice and tournament time plus other aspects of managing.
Bind these topics together and the athlete cannot help but improve their performance and see improved results.
