Hopefully, we will give our best and try to win the team and individual gold."Talking about the importance of sports science, Sourav said, "It is the most important. I am 37 now and I would not have been playing had I not got support from my support team who are experts in their own fields. I have been associated with my physical trainer from England for the last five years. I do not get so many injuries as he plans workload well. I have been working with Gayatri Rathore who has been my psychologist for the last one year. I have a nutritionist as well. My diet has changed drastically. All these things put together makes a huge difference. And then you have the family support which makes everything possible."Sourav also highlighted the importance of mental health for an athlete. According to Sourav, "I think it is very important to understand that whatever we produce as athletes is because of the efforts we put in before. When we go out on the field the mental side takes over. The key is how good you are mentally to produce the result it matters. Everyone has the skill set but one that differentiates from the best is how good you are mentally to produce the performance that matter. If for whatever reason you are not in a good mental state to produce that you are not going to succeed. You need to have the utmost clarity at what you are doing.".Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
