Instructors of physical activities often focus more on the activities themselves than on the participants who perform them. People may believe that training our bodies is unrelated to training our minds. However, participants’ minds determine their attitudes and level of effort toward physical development. In usual practice, instructors may just tell their participants to exercise regularly, warm up before exercising, or use a particular strategy. However, it is not sufficient for instructors to expect participants to blindly follow their directions in physical activities. Instructors must raise participants’ awareness of how these activities enhance their physical performance. For example, an instructor could explicitly explain how warming up before exercising improves their performances. If participants understand the principles of these activities, it enables them to gradually take fuller ownership of their own development.
