Mental Fitness Assessment Tool

Instructions
Welcome to QT2 Systems' comprehensive Mental Fitness Assessment Tool! This tool is designed to help athletes boost their mental fitness, a key component of athletic performance that is often neglected in conventional training programs. The forthcoming questions delve into various areas such as self-induced pressures, concentration, arousal, and the application of methods like visualization and cue words. To gain the most beneficial feedback, it is important to answer these questions as honestly as possible. Once you submit your answers, the tool will calculate your scores for race preparedness, usage of mental compensatory strategies, and overall mental fitness. Additionally, you will receive comprehensive feedback and recommendations for enhancing your mental fitness.

Please note: Whenever you are asked to rate on a scale from 0 to 10, interpret a 0 as being low. Conversely, a rating of 10 should be considered as high.
