Dr. Joseph Teal wrote a piece about mental training for athletes using hypnosis in the Sport Supplement:

As athletes participate in sports, they usually work very hard to train their bodies. But some sport psychologists say that 80-90% of their performance is in their mind. This involves the use of their imagination, thought processes, and attitudes, to provide incentive, support, reinforcement, and refinement of special skills. In the Wall Street Journal, performance psychologist Dr. Charles Garfield explained why it is that some people are able to become superior performers, while others are not. Over the years, variations of the technique have been called by different names. But, whatever you wish to call it, it is nothing more than a step-by-step mental preview by the patient of the athletic goal he wishes to accomplish. It is believed that as he imagines the activity occurring, his neurons fire in exactly the same patterns they would follow if he were actually performing the activity. And as he sees the pictures in his mind, his subconscious mind is convinced that the desired feat is possible.
