Understanding Grit in Sports Medicine & Performance | Spotlight Sports Solutions Study Group

Описание: Why do some athletes and professionals persevere through adversity while others fall short? In this week’s Spotlight Sports Solutions Study Group, we explore the concept of grit—the sustained passion and perseverance that underpins excellence in both rehab and high-performance environments.

Grounded in the work of Angela Duckworth, this session examines the four psychological pillars of grit and tackles the classic nature vs. nurture debate when it comes to resilience, discipline, and long-term success. Whether you're working with a post-op athlete or developing a championship mindset, grit is a non-negotiable.

✅ What defines grit and how it predicts success
✅ Passion vs. perseverance over time
✅ Talent vs. effort: what really matters
✅ The four components of grit: interest, practice, purpose, and hope
✅ How to identify and cultivate grit in yourself and your athletes

Applying grit to rehab and return-to-play journeys
