motivation

• intrinsic motivating factors 


  come from within the individual

  eg. enjoyment from participation, self-satisfaction with performances, will to improve, be successful
• extrinsic motivating factors


  external to the athlete  

  eg. prize money, trophies, progress charts, certificates, gain recognition
• positive motivation


  should be applied more regularly, especially with beginners, than negative motivation

  eg. "well done", "great follow-through"
• negative motivation 


  should be used if performance is inadequate or incorrect

  eg. "give me 10 pushups", "don't do that again"
