It’s a new world out there when it comes to enhancing performance among NFL rookies who participate in the NFL combine. They’ve been checked and analyzed for everything from GPS tracking devices, heart monitors, sleep patches, journals to monitor nutrition, soreness and anxiety levels, medical histories, psychological profiles, functional movement patterns, biomechanical assessments and Krossover’s sIQ tests to record a player’s reaction time. So let’s assume that a player passes all the tests with flying colors but later, team coaches and team owners realize there’s one thing they’ve been unable to pre-test for: the likelihood that a player will get into an argument with his girlfriend the night before a game (and doesn’t tell anyone) and subsequently drops three passes that hit him right in the numbers. That’s why team support group sessions are so important to the success of a team. Support group sessions allow players to get things off their chests and share their personal problems with their teammates in the privacy of a controlled environment.
