Balance in the life of an elite sportsperson is a must. In this first episode of Olympic Minds Unlocked, hockey player Loïck Luypaert explains how the Red Lions were motivated to become Olympic Champions, and we discover why Niels Van Zandweghe had nightmares about the Olympic Games. The conversation is facilitated by sports psychologist Jolan Kegelaers. He reveals why the mental well-being of an athlete is just as important now and how you can continue to engage in sports during mentally challenging times.
