— Parker Spencer, Project Podium Head Coach
LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, August 19, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — alphabeats, a leader in mental performance for athletes and an official supporting partner of USA Triathlon’s Project Podium, today announced a performance collaboration with the men’s elite development program based at Arizona State University (ASU) in Tempe, Arizona which aims to cultivate top young male triathletes for Olympic success. The collaboration will integrate alphabeats’ innovative neurofeedback technology into the training regimens of Project Podium athletes, enhancing their mental fitness and overall performance as they pursue excellence in international competition.
“Mental resilience is a crucial component of triathlon success, especially at the elite level,” said Parker Spencer, Project Podium Head Coach. “We look forward to seeing how our athletes can benefit from alphabeats’ technology in areas like focus, recovery, and overall mental preparation.”
The partnership will initially involve a select group of Project Podium athletes who have demonstrated top competitive potential in draft-legal racing. These athletes will integrate alphabeats’ mind training program into their daily training schedules over a three-month period, with regular assessments to track improvements in mental performance and its impact on overall athletic achievement.
“We’re excited to work with USA Triathlon’s Project Podium and support these exceptional young athletes on their journey to the Olympic podium,” said Jorrit DeVries, President & Chief Commercial Officer at alphabeats. “Our technology is designed to give athletes a competitive edge by improving their mental game, which is especially critical in a demanding multisport discipline like triathlon.”
alphabeats’ unique approach combines curated popular music with advanced neurofeedback technology, delivered through an app and EEG headband. Users engage in short, intensive “mental workouts” that enhance focus, relaxation, and cognitive performance. Research has shown that consistent use of alphabeats can lead to a 33% increase in alpha brainwave output, associated with a calm and focused mental state.
This initiative aligns with Project Podium’s mission to develop top young USA Triathlon Elite athletes and help them achieve medal performances in the Olympic Games. By incorporating cutting-edge mental fitness tools, the program aims to give these athletes a holistic approach to performance enhancement.
