Mark Nesti Bücher

The existential approach presented by Mark Nesti challenges conventional cognitive-behavioral models in sports psychology by focusing on an athlete's unique emotional landscape.

This radical alternative emphasizes understanding the individual experiences and feelings that shape an athlete's performance, offering a more personalized path to overcoming challenges.
