How to Reach Flow States | Sport Psychology

- Flow is defined as an optimal state of consciousness, a state where you feel your best and perform your best. More specifically, the term refers to those moments when you are so focused on the task at hand that everything else disappears. Your mind goes quiet and your actions happen with ease. Your sense of self vanishes. And your sense of time distorts (either, speeds up; or, occasionally, slows down).
In basketball, you’ll often hear players refer to this state as going unconscious. In other sports, it is often referred to as being in the zone. These terms are all different ways of describing what researchers refer to as flow states.
In this video we dive into the science of flow states and how to enter these states more often.

Share this video with you teammates to help them improve their performances! :)
Kudos for the Video clip! Forgive me for butting in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you thought about - Marnaavid Unexplainable Intervention (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is an awesome one of a kind product for learning how to hack your flow state without the headache. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my best friend Jordan at very last got excellent results with it.
Probably a scam. Website looks like a scam
This is glorious, I've been looking for "mihaly csikszentmihalyi pronunciation" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Fiylianaton Glorious Framework - (search on google ) ? It is a great exclusive guide for discovering how to hack your flow state and succeed minus the normal expense. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my work buddy got great results with it.
I reached Flow by doing fast reflex things like video games or catching things in unpredictable situations. We played a school football tornament and everyone including me considered myself as mediocre. Then suddenly i felt like Ronadinho entered my body. Surroundings became vague, you didnt care about the others and just focused on the ball. I scored goals every minute with shooting techniques i only knew from movies. I didnt even aim at the goal because in Flow state your instinct tells you where the most critical situation is. We won the tornament and the football club players even invited me to play with them. Best moment in my life regarding sports.
Doge coin to the moon!
Also thanks for sharing your experience!
This is beautiful. Specially "imagining as Ronaldinho"
"i felt like Ronadinho entered my body" is the most artistic work of literature I have had the privilege of laying my eyes upon
He's not talking about magic, he's talking about a skilled athlete (one who practices and whose skills come as instinctual as a result) who may think too much and it affect their performance.
Idk why but I feel like I get in the zone way easier when my game is happening during cold weather or rain
Same here. For some reason cold and rain puts me in a more “ready for war/battle” like mindset.
Swears bro. Me too. I play football at my best in the rain. It shocks my friends cause i do it everytime. Ive never had a bad rainy day. I thought i was alone in the world. Now i met you
This reminds me of when I was younger when I didn’t had a phone I was actually way better at football/soccer in comparison then I am now. Very helpful video
Same here ❤️
You can also trigger flow state when entering the realm of the runners high. That means non stop movement and dynamics on the pitch
I reached flow state when I was in primary school during Inter school athletics tournament, That day I won gold on 100 meter, 200 meter, High Jump, Long Jump, 4× 100 relay...I activated ultra instinct and entered into the speedforce without even noticing anything that is happening in that moment, almost as if I had tunnel vision on each event I participated in.
I just wanted to let you know that Your Video's Are Helping Me a lot By Just Improving On My Mental Game👌
I'm very happy to hear that. What sport do you play?
@@masteryblueprint_ Basketball
This reminds me of the time when I was playing soccer for interschool in grade 7, where I was apparently really good in midfield position but I didn't remember anything that happened in the games other than it being super fun
This channel is gold and underrated
You are doing great job man! Keep it up, you will help a lot of people!
Love all the vids champ. Pls dont stop making vids as im studying sport psychology aswell. Im also a personal trainer.
You are producing quality content. Keep up the fantastic job
Concise and clear. Gold star! Good luck with your future goals :)
Outstanding summary of these highly complex subjects. Would recommend you include some video of female athletes, and non-sports high performers. Pilots, Firefighters, Acrobats, etc. Keep up the great work. What's next??
Thanks, David! I definitely would like to do that, that's actually something that I struggle with when making videos. The main reason you don't see female athletes right now is because over 90% of my viewers are male, so I have to cater to my audience as best I can to increase the ranking of my videos on the RUclips algorithm. Unfortunately, I will have to do this until the channel has grown bigger. There will also be videos on non-sport high performers in the future, but the issue again is that in order to grow on RUclips, it is recommended to start with a niche (sports, in my case) and then expand as the channel grows. Next video is about the science of meditation, I hope to have that out within the next month!
Great info! Thank you ❤
I find that listening to certain types of music gets me in flow
👏👏👏. Great video.
Your videos are gold
Really welll put together video!
Yep. I can trigger flow in command for about 10 seconds. Although mental preparation is needed while I'm in the game so it's pretty hard to execute.
How do u do it? Do u breathe though ur nose and out of ur mouth or something
@@gl1tch0ut12nose
the ZONE
from kurokos basketball
Wonderful
Great content
NICE VIDEO!!!
I need to master this
Messi is the perfect example of Flow.
I think Tom Brady does it best. In my opinion, he is the greatest athlete and clutch player of all time
@@masteryblueprint_A qb is a better athlete than Messi?
@@crxo7106 Messi isnt even top 3 athletes
A good flow of life is a happy life.
So I play basketball and I’m skilled at it. I get into flow way too many times by accident than on purpose. Whenever I keep missing, I focus more on what I’m doing and what I could do better, which is how I get into the flow. I also use my anger as an advantage which is my most effective way to get into flow. I hope this helps in a way.
Awesome
yes
time X behaviour = trust. @4:19 fire.
👏🏻
he knows
shooted a three pointer with 3 man blocking me couldnt hear anything just me, the ring and the ball i only see the ring everything in the side is black and i nailed the shot
I remember when I was a kid I don't know if it was flow or not but I remember I jumped high up in front of my nephew and mom their Jaw dropped. I don't know if that's a part of flow but everything started to slow down like the movie matrix.
Time x Behavior = Trust
yuji is good at this
Yeah
should you be in flow state when skill building? Or is it possible to be in a flow state while building skills?
That was my most recent video. It's a great question. I do think you can experience absorption but it may not feel effortless
Hello I need some help, This "ZONE" well previously I had only encountered in, in things such as maths or science class in school however I joined sports clubs and never experienced it there however when lockdown came, I couldn't play and so when I was walking to shops not thinking about anything I would randomly get a vision of myself and my teammates in a game with another team.... everything was quiet and I didn't think I just did and it wouldn't just happen once it would happen like 2-3 times daily and it would switch from basketball to volleyball and back could see all my own and teammates movements and it wasn't previous games or old memories it was new things or situations we haven't been in is this be a deeper state of the "ZONE" or is it something else or is that just it? please help me.
That was visualization, and it’s how elite athletes prepare, imagining all the possible scenarios and working through them, as if they’re actually in competition.
I feel like the ball travels in slo motion when I score
I vibe with that
Do u think flow is easier achieve with things like music or scilence and true meditation. I know I said to stay off social media like insta and snap which makes sense but do u think music helps or not. Great vid
Yes, I think music absolutely helps
Me i enter the zone when i dont know. thats my problem i cant enter it just like that
I entered the flow while playing against My old academy felt like drowning dribble every singe opponent and shot from ranges I don't know
can you please write me some "transient hypofrontality" scientific evidence?
When I get angry and focused I get in the zone not being happy why
I think if you want to reach the flow state you can’t try to enter the flow state because it’s an unconscious thought.
I’ve been in flow states before when the challenge and skill ratio is way off though. The challenge was way beyond my skill level, yet I still reached flow and performed well. Why is this and how could I repeat it?
Mindfulness meditation + positive self talk + putting in the work before hand (consistent deliberate practice) so that you can trust yourself
I think what you were experiencing was a complete detachment from the outcome, which is another very big part of experiencing flow state. You probably knew that there was no way you could beat the person because of their skill level, so you just let go of worrying about the outcome, and just lived in the moment, giving your best.
sources?
Your the man
no you are
Hey do you have any tips for when you are playing with a new team and are feeling super anxious and not able to get into the flow state?
Soo.. What if u sleep a lot
K.Aisuru lol sleep is healthy!
Like the sport psychology explanation of this video.
"I don't hit, it hits by itself".😎 Bruce Lee.
☯️I experience flow state when I play sports.
Most of the time when I play football (soccer).☯️🇵🇬🙏🏾
Good Health and Blessings everyone.

(Read more, added two comments in 'reply' with my specific experience)
HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE.
... Took me until my adulthood to realize it was a 'thing'. That not everyone experiences 'it'. Or at least put a few words or names to the experience.
Been happening since I was a kid. Can recall the first time it happened, and everytime since. One of the ways I know its happened is that I can't forget it, it's memorable. But I have no control over it , no attachment. It just is. Understood it somewhat as being 'in the zone' - What I heard sports men and women say. But they never really could explain the experience explicitly.
Like I said it took me until adulthood, when I learned about Taoism and Zen Buddhism, then it started to make sense (Raised Christian Protestant- United Church, with a bit of Catholicism in PNG✝️🇵🇬 🙂).
Took me a while after that before I told anyone. I had words to describe it now as an adult. Told my family first, not to brag or anything. Just to let them know I have words to explain this experience that I didn't know was a 'thing'. But apparently it is. It's hard finding people who have experienced it. My family understands but I can tell when we converse, they've never experienced it. Because 'it just is', free from attachment, like an out of body experience, a 'oneness' in the pluralistic sense, a 'wholeness'.
Words I use now to describe the experience:
1. In the Zone.
2. The Tao- the name that cannot be named, that is all and one in the same.
3. Flow State.
Comes with an awareness now in my adulthood. I'm 'made aware' of things around me and I have no control over it. (Is how I explained it to my family.) Manifests itself more often as an intuition of danger around me and others. Like I said there's no on or off button it just happens, it just is. I just know from experience what situations it's likely to happen.
Once again, hope this helps someone.
Good Health and Blessings.
🙏🏾✝️🕎✡️☪️☮️☯️
I now also use:
1. Mushin
2. No 'mindedness'.
3. "I do not hit, it hits by itself"... Maybe for my instance I'll say, "I do not play, it plays by itself".
Once again, Good Health and Blessings.

I wants was slow but when I got bullied I run like a god
KINS 1150 anyone?
ngl i broke my flow state from doing my assignments to watch this video.
bruh focus
Kuroko no basket
i reached flowstate once only 1 time
:(
It doesn’t happen super often. I’ve been playing as a lacrosse goalie for 8 years, and I’ve only entered the zone 6 times. I’ve played dozens upon dozens of games and only 6 of those games I ended up in the zone. What I believe is helpful in achieving it more often is just training your skills and getting faster/more precise while you’re not in the zone. The better you get outside of it, the better you’ll be once you’re in that flow state.
You have a cool last name
You too bro. Our ancestors were pretty dope
Im being abuses
Somebody summarize in the comments? So much unnecessary info in the vid
Watch 7mlc for the best soccer practice he is incredible
