Randy Borum |
He began studying sport psychology and motor-behavior principles in the mid-1980s to help understand how they might be applied to help police officers perform well mentally in high-stress and high-risk situations. He later taught police-academy classes regarding performance under stress for several years. Today, Borum pens the Psyched column for Black Belt, which addresses applications of sport psychology to traditional martial arts, mixed martial arts and other combat sports. He is also consulting with the National Academy of Sports Medicine, helping to develop and write a curriculum module on sport psychology for their Performance Enhancement Specialist certification.
