Three Main Reasons, Why Novak Djokovic is the best tennis player of 2011 (Gluten free Diet)

 

In this blog we will see how Gluten-free diet has changed his playing stamina.and feeling stronger on the court.



3.    Gluten-free diet.


Serbian tennis star Novak Djokovic hasn't earned his No. 1 ranking by taking the conventional road. There's his odd ritual of excessive ball bouncing before serves, which can break an opponent's concentration. There's his new gluten-free diet, which he's said has helped him feel stronger on the court.

So let use see what he is not eating. Since last year, he's swearing off pasta, pizza, beer, French bread, Corn Flakes, pretzels, empanadas, Mallomars and Twizzlers—anything with gluten.
It's no secret that Djokovic has had a breakout season, or that he has been, by any reasonable standard, the world's best athlete of 2011.

How this happen?

Last year, Djokovic's nutritionist discovered that Djokovic is allergic to the protein, which is found in common flours. Djokovic banished it from his diet and lost a few pounds. He says he now feels much better on court. A gluten-free diet can have implications far beyond the physical, especially in tennis, which taxes the mind like few other sports. The season is 11 months long, matches are grueling and can last for hours, and the slightest dip in a player's confidence can derail months of hard work. There's never anyone else to blame for a match gone awry.

It's mostly mental energy you're talking about, not energy supplied to muscle tissues, said David Levitsky, a professor of nutrition and psychology at Cornell University, when asked about the effects of giving up gluten if one has an allergy. (An allergy differs from celiac disease, whose sufferers, Levitsky said, can incur far-reaching health effects from eating gluten, including the inability to absorb nutrients.)

Levitsky said a gluten-free diet might have benefits for those with mild allergies, or even no allergy at all. The other part of the story is, if you believe in a cause of your disorder, it becomes the cause, he said. We see this in many different studies. If you believe it, you change your behavior in the direction of being cured. In tennis, something small often leads to a big boost in confidence. For Djokovic, there has been no shortage of pick-me-ups in the past nine months.

Besides this diet he has also massively improved his serve, his fitness, and he's hitting his forehand a lot better," said Brad Gilbert, the ESPN commentator and former coach of Andy Murray and Andre Agassi. "I've never seen anybody move better on a tennis court in my life. He's so flexible; he can make impossible gets with ease."

What is Gluten-Free Diet?


A strict gluten-free diet means no oats, wheat, rye, barley, or malt flavorings, and everything from soy sauce to fried chicken is off-limits because of one little protein. When people who have been diagnosed with Celiac disease follow this diet, they often experience relief of symptoms like intestinal discomfort, diarrhea, overwhelming fatigue, and muscle cramps. For these individuals, it’s important to be cautious with food preparation and eating out is often more trouble than it’s worth.

Three Reasons, Why Novak Djokovic is the best tennis player of 2011


In this blog we all will see how Self-confidence can change whole point of view about your life.


2. Self-confidence


 
Self-confidence is a positive attitude about oneself and about the surrounding situations. Self-confident attitudes are also realistic. A person who has self-confidence is generally upbeat about getting what they want, within reason. People with self-confidence also generally feel in control of their lives, and when their situations fall short of expectations, they continue to accept themselves and to have a positive outlook.


A committed tennis player like Novak Djokovic cannot be defeated at the moment. Even when he is behind the Serb manages to obtain one victory after another. If you watch professional tennis, you also know that the game's very best players are just as vulnerable to the self-confidence trap as anyone on your local high-school team. That truth was on full display in Saturday's thrilling U.S. Open men's semifinal between Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic.

During the first two sets, Federer looked like he had stepped into a time machine and set the dial back to 2006, back when he stood, unrivaled, atop the tennis landscape. His footwork was nimble. His one-handed backhand exploded crisply off his racket. He played with the grace and flair that tennis aesthetes have so fetishized over the last decade, and which nobody on tour can come close to matching. (Nadal and Djokovic are both great players, but not great stylists.) Federer played the aggressor to Djokovic -- no easy feat, given that the Serb has put together one of the greatest years in tennis history (currently 60-2 with two Grand Slam titles to his name).

How he is achieving this:

Novak Djokovic is emphasizing on his strengths by focusing on goal to do best in his game. Now he is taking more risk with shots. After successfully completing new endeavours that involve risk, you begin to feel confidence about the future. He is also practicing more on his weaknesses.

Practice self-evaluations of his performances. These self-evaluations should include the aspects of his performance that he did well and other aspects that could be improved upon. This helps him to rely less on the opinions of others, which may dwell on the negative. It empowers him while taking power away from others.

He is continuing to recognizing the self-defeating thought patterns as they reappear and dismiss them. These include "all or nothing" expectations whereby if an outcome isn't perfect, it is seen as a failure. This can be seen as an unrealistic expectation. Thoughts that magnify negative aspects of yourself or your performance should also be discarded.



How we all can get this in our life.

The basis for self-confidence begins with parents who plan accepting attitudes toward their children, which means that adults may have to work harder to develop self-confidence if they are starting out with negative parental influences. Secondly they can develop this by Joining groups, clubs or organizations that provide positive support among their members.

Three Reasons, Why Novak Djokovic is the best tennis player of 2011




Tennis, of late, has been a place for coronations. First it was domination of Roger Federer as the greatest player of all time. After that it was crowning Rafael Nadal as, only a little confusingly, the dominant player of his era. And then this year, the ascension of Novak Djokovic above both men, capped by his victory Monday at the U.S. Open. Djokovic is the boss now — nobody can argue otherwise. His season is probably impossible to repeat, Nadal told reporters after his 6-2, 6-4, 6-7, 6-1 loss.

Here are three main reasons why he has is so dominating in 2011.

Self-Belief
Confident
Gluten-free diet.



1.    Self-Belief

 
Self-belief is vital. How many things have you not done or tried because you lacked belief in yourself?  Many fail to believe in themselves because others. But as Eleanor Roosevelt so deftly put it:

Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent.”


Yet self-doubts creep in, don’t they? Like unwelcome house guests that keep calling round simply because you played host to them before. Doubts such as:
 
•Can I really do this?
 
•Other people are better, smarter, more worthy than me.
 
•What will other people think if I do/say this?
 
•I can’t risk failure.
 
•Success is for others but not for the likes of me!

If you sometimes have trouble believing in yourself then read, absorb, enjoy, and practice these self-belief tips.

Here is how Djokovic told to reporters:
I think self-belief on the court,” Djokovic told reporters. “It’s true, especially in the big events and matches, (the) winner is decided by small margins, (by a) couple of points. I guess the winner is the one that believes in victory more than the other. That’s all there is.”
In some ways, that’s all there ever is. When you watch a tennis match in person, it becomes so much more clear how easy it is to miss, especially if you are hitting for the lines — when Federer, Nadal and Djokovic play, at some point you have to hit for the lines.
It’s an exercise of feel, of touch, of the muscle memory of the million swings that came before it. And all that being equal, it is confidence. It is not being afraid to miss.

“I guess it just clicked in my head,” Djokovic said Monday, citing a few cathartic losses, and breakthrough wins. “I think that throughout last couple of years I didn’t change my game in any major way. I think most of the strokes are the same that they were in (the) last two, three years. It’s just that I’m hitting the shots that I maybe wasn’t hitting in (the) last two, three years. Now, I’m going for it.”
