MINDSET FITNESS
ATHLETES
Most people want to become mentally tough; they just don’t know how to do it. We do, and we know that mental toughness is crucial to your success both on and off the field. Many athletes believe that you are born with mental toughness, either you have it or you don’t. But anyone can achieve it if they are willing to put in the work.
WHAT IS MENTAL TOUGHNESS
Prepare to surpass your own expectations!
- Spordis ei ole tähtsad ainult füüsilised võimed, suurt rolli mängib ka mentaalne tugevus. See on oskus püsida fokusseeritud, motiveeritud ja enesekindel ka pingelistes olukordades.
- It enables you to stay calm and composed, handle stress, and push yourself beyond your limits. Mental toughness also helps you to maintain a positive attitude, learn from your mistakes, and bounce back from failures even stronger.
- Mental toughness is to perform consistently at a high level. It allows you to stay in the zone, block out distractions, and concentrate on the task at hand.
WHAT MENTAL TOUGHNESS IS NOT
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE "BORN WITH IT".
Mentaalne võimekus mängib ülisuurt rolli tippsoorituse saavutamisel ning paljud sportlased arvavad, et see omadus lihtsalt on olemas või ei ole. Õnneks ei vasta see tõele. Mentaalne tugevus on oskus nagu iga teine ja seda saab arendada.
- To become mentally tough, you need to consistently practice and train to improve your mental toughness level. It’s not a fixed trait that you either have or don’t have. Everyone has the potential to become mentally tougher through training and effort.
- Mental toughness is like your fitness level. The more you train your body, the more fit you become.
THE MAMBA
MENTALITY
"Mamba Mentality" is a term coined by the late Kobe Bryant, a former professional basketball player. It refers to the mindset and approach to life that Kobe embodied both on and off the basketball court.
Kobe believed in relentless hard work, dedication, and perseverance in pursuit of excellence. He approached every challenge with a fierce competitiveness and a desire to constantly improve himself. This mindset is often associated with the “win-at-all-costs” mentality, but Kobe emphasized that it was about more than just winning. It was about giving everything you had to achieve your goals and be the best version of yourself.

KERDU LENEAR
BACHELOR’S DEGREE IN COMMUNICATIONS FROM AUBURN UNIVERSITY, GRADUATING WITH MASTER’S DEGREE FROM TALTECH UNIVERSITY IN THE WINTER OF 2023.
Kerdu on abikaasa, kahe noore sportlase ema ja endine professionaalne korvpallur, kes tegi oma elus kannapöörde, kui avastas, kuidas oma mõttemusklit treenida.
Kerdu mängis korvpalli ja õppis USA-s Auburni Ülikoolis kommunikatsiooni, olles selleks välja teeninud täisstipendiumi. Sama ülikooli on teiste seas lõpetanud ka endine NBA superstaar ja Kerdu esimene korvpalli-iidol Charles Barkley. Unustamatu mälestus oli oma iidoliga kohtumine, kui Barkley ülikooli naiskonnale mängueelset motivatsioonikõnet pidamas käis.
In addition to her work as a mindset coach, Kerdu has also been a basketball coach for young athletes. Her experience as a professional athlete and coach has given her firsthand knowledge of the challenges faced by athletes, both on and off the court. She understands the impact competition can have on one’s mind and is passionate about helping others develop the mental toughness needed to succeed in sports and in life.
Inspired by her own journey of personal growth and transformation, Kerdu became a mindset coach and founded Mindset Fitness, a platform to help others improve their lives by changing their mindset. Her approach is rooted in the Mamba mentality, a concept she learned from studying Kobe’s mental toughness and success.
Kerdu is graduating in the winter from TalTech with a master’s degree. Her thesis focuses on self-handicapping, also known as fear of failure, and how it hinders success at the highest level. This concept is applicable in both sports and daily life. Kerdu has also received a diploma of professional study in professional sports psychology, which is fully accredited by CTAA.
Kerdu’s approach to mindset coaching can help you develop the mental toughness you need to succeed both on and off the court. With her firsthand experience as a professional athlete and coach, she understands the challenges you face and can help you overcome them.
