In fact, the reasons that prevent one athlete from reaching success, or lead another to the peak of success, is often the individual's mental imagery.

After re-examining the articles, 9 articles whose objective was to review the effect of mental training on the training performance. Mental imagery improves athletes' performance and shares a common mechanism with physical training. Results: More than 85% of researchers have concluded that mental imagery enhances athletic performance and shares common mechanisms with physical training. Mental imagery is recognized as one of the effective methods for athletes and serves as a practical complement to physical exercises. It should be incorporated alongside physical training in all conditions to maximize its impact.
