What is the #1 challenge you’re facing as a lacrosse goalie?
Overwhelmingly, the most common answer I saw was – the mental game.
That’s why I was so excited to land an interview with Dr. Rob Bell, a mental toughness coach and sports psychology expert.
Dr. Rob Bell has a very impressive resume when it comes to pumping up athlete’s mental game. He’s worked with national champs in a variety of sports, Olympic medalists, PGA tour golfers, he’s authored 7 books, and has a podcast called ’15 minutes of mental toughness’.
He also has an impressive track record of improving his own mental game including running Iron Mans, Marathons, Tough Mudders, Ultra Marathons and experiencing 2 near death experiences.
I’ve been studying the materials of Dr. Bell for awhile now and I think you’ll not only appreciate his intelligence in the area of mental toughness but also his blue collar, T-shirt and jeans approach to working with athletes.

Lacrosse is my passion! The game has given me so much and this blog is my way of giving back to the lax community. Specifically the most bad a$$ part of that community - the goalies! After learning to play goalie from scratch, I wanted to create a site where I could share what I learned with others so they too can become champions in the crease and in life.
