## About Sports Psychology & Athlete Mentorship

### No Filters, Just Facts

I'm not here to sugarcoat things or sell you big dreams. Sports coaching is full of fake promises about turning anyone into a superstar overnight. Honestly, `sach kadwa hota hai` (truth is bitter) - some things, like raw speed, are in your genes. Fast bowlers are born, not made, and chasing shortcuts will only waste time and money. Skill and game sense matter more than flashy numbers.

### What I Actually Do

My mentorship is about honest sports mentorship, not magic. First, we work on your mind - attitude and character always come before technique. If your progress stalls, I’ll call it out. Life’s bigger than just sports, so don’t fool yourself or your family.

### Mindset First, Always

Athlete mental resilience is the core. I push you to think like a winner, not a survivor. Pressure? That’s for warriors, not worriers. Rain outside? Good, let’s find another way to train. We start with meditation so you hit the ground calm and focused.

### Discipline Beyond the Pitch

Effort doesn’t stop at the boundary. Real rest means switching off, not doom scrolling. No ‘cheat meals’, no ‘cheat efforts’. Your commitment needs to be full-on, all day, every day.

### Straight Talk to Parents

Parents, don’t treat your kid like a machine. Growth has its own pace; pressure and constant comparison don’t help. Support, not fear, builds champions. Don’t cut sports for exams - balance is everything.

### Eyes on the Real Prize

State leagues aren’t enough - aim for the national team. Your competition? The one holding your dream spot right now. And always have a plan B. `Padhai karo, koi hunar seekho` (Study, learn a skill). Be honest, be tough, be ready for anything.

- [Video: The "Alto to Ferrari" myth is the biggest lie in coaching. You can't change an engine with a paint job. I believe in working with your natural gifts, your genetics, not selling you a dream that's impossible. Fast bowlers are born, not made through fancy drills.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/88a39425-ce1e-46eb-80f6-897b55ab2c8b)

This is a hard truth about discipline that separates the successful from the rest.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/fd460f34-91ab-4361-90e1-9cf2fd70dd52)

- [Video: The best batsmen have one thing in common: a sharp mind. I focus on training you to read the game, to be present in the moment, and to think, not just react emotionally.

- [Video: Your child made 50, and you're angry they didn't make 100. This is the wrong approach. I explain why parents must be a source of unconditional support, appreciating the effort and providing a cushion against the world's criticism, not adding to it.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/46812c4c-e82c-4863-ab23-9f78e1ebecc6)
- [Video: When your child fails in a match, your job is to prepare them for the next battle, not to vent your own frustrations. I discuss the parent's role in building resilience after a low score or a wicketless spell, emphasizing that you are a parent, not the coach.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/9ee1874b-2fcb-435d-93da-f780c8156e21)

- [Video: Parents, please do not attend your kid's matches just to sit on the sidelines and coach from a distance. Your presence is a distraction and your gestures only add pressure. Let the coach do their job and let the player focus on the game.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/617ba211-8102-45f2-8d6f-a32b798b09a3)

I break down why this "cool" parenting trend of shirking responsibility is damaging your child's development.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/40868d7a-9f94-4ef4-95f9-2eef293278ec)
- [Video: There is a huge difference between competition and comparison. I teach parents to foster a competitive spirit in their children but to avoid the poison of comparing them to others. Every child has a unique timeline and talent.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/7cf9b0ec-44ca-445e-92c6-6a65e0d75088)
- [Video: Seeing young players succeed in the IPL makes every parent push their own child harder. This is a mistake. I explain that these young stars are often god-gifted, and you cannot force that timeline on your own child. Patience is key.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/dd1df26b-6e2c-43b6-93f4-a5833f8f87aa)
- [Video: Creating a single athlete requires the sacrifice of the entire family. I talk about the immense collective effort needed to even produce a player, let alone a champion. Understand the real cost before you set expectations of playing for India.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/befba3fa-ae4b-441a-98f8-1d29cc29a696)
- [Video: Denying your child facilities because you grew up without them is not teaching value, it's making them a handicapped competitor. I argue that parents should provide the best possible resources and then teach the value of those resources.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/b5d56e46-0963-4df8-be06-8b5508b4b865)
- [Video: How much is too much? Pushing a 7 or 8 year old into intense, specialized training can lead to burnout and physical harm. I discuss the importance of balanced physical activity and allowing a child to grow naturally without commercial pressures.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/003f0354-2f3a-4013-be93-80ba0b45ce03)

### [The "Pace Mafia" Files: Debunking Industry Frauds](https://mytribe.in/rvsportsperformance/sports-psychology-athlete-mentorship/the-pace-mafia-files-debunking-industry-frauds)

- [Video: The pocket radar scam is real. These coaches use faulty gadgets to show inflated speeds, luring in kids with the promise of 150 kph. I'm calling out this "hera pheri" and explaining why you can't trust these numbers.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/a5ffa81c-4df9-49cd-b790-b87e858127c7)
- [Video: A coach is using my videos to defend his own questionable methods. I'm setting the record straight. My issue isn't with individuals, but with the entire system of lies that is ruining careers. This is about honesty versus emotional manipulation.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/6d1ad7a1-03cf-448a-8627-61736974b9eb)
- [Video: I'm issuing an open challenge to the "Neera Pace Foundation" and others. Let's have a public debate on genetics, biomechanics, and your claims of increasing speed by 20 kph in 3 months. Let's see who is telling the truth in front of the kids you're fooling.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/8b34effd-5a27-4828-bfb0-6c4386f0fba2)
- [Video: This coach claims he can make 15 fast bowlers, but BCCI doesn't even have that many. I break down the absurdity of these claims. I'm not making fast bowlers; I provide an environment for naturally fast bowlers to train and improve their skills.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/afecc404-8fad-4e28-bb4d-5df3e58db21e)
- [Video: He finally admitted it: not everyone can bowl 150 kph. This is the exact point I've been making. It's about genetics. The fight was never personal; it was about exposing the lie that hard work alone can make anyone a genuine fast bowler.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/974757b7-d2ae-4423-84f5-f58b51a41f8e)
- [Video: I'm offering a proposal to the coaches who claim they can increase speed by 20 kph in 3 months. Go to the MRF Pace Foundation or the NCA, take their 135 kph bowlers, and make them 155 kph. If you can do it, the whole country benefits.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/6ce089bf-3f16-4583-a7ef-d9dd85928f6c)
- [Video: I'm teaching these so called pace coaches how to fly without wings, just like they claim to make fast bowlers without genetics. This is a sarcastic take on the ridiculous promises made by fraudulent coaches who are ruining the game.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/0fde438b-bb33-4d93-b029-c691ffab4760)
- [Video: The truth about genetics and fast bowling. You can't turn a donkey into a horse. A bowler who isn't naturally fast by 17 or 18 will not become a 150 kph machine. It's better to focus on skill than to chase an impossible dream.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/07414288-aafc-4ed7-ae50-7509131262df)
- [Video: This video of a 142 kph delivery is another fraud. The ball is a lightweight, non-standard ball. I'm offering 5 lakhs today if this kid can bowl 140 kph with a proper leather ball. These coaches are playing with lives for likes.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/6d50c4bd-eafc-49cc-95be-6ffb1adb7dd0)
- [Video: This is Pankaj Vashisht. He has never played professional cricket or even used a leather ball before. Today, he clocked 124 kph naturally. This is what I mean when I say fast bowlers are born, not made in a factory with fake drills.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/957d8f97-2480-4ac0-9224-572a5bef5da6)
- [Video: This is Hari Shankar, a 130 kph bowler who wants to be 150. I'm offering 50,000 a month for a year to any "pace university" that can increase his speed to 140 kph. It's a challenge to prove their claims or admit they are selling lies.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/b99f43a4-a593-4a10-bd7d-f1e2e4554b15)
- [Video: I'm going to expose the truth about these speed guns. On Saturday, I will show you how these gadgets are manipulated to create fake 145-160 kph speeds. The entire speed scam will be revealed.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/f0d83dac-0bfc-492f-9464-2d46a7bedebd)
- [Video: This is a black and white look at a pocket radar showing a fake speed of 111 kph. The caption sarcastically notes how a bowler added 30 kms to his speed in minutes. This is a direct jab at the unreliability of these gadgets.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/e9415033-64d0-444a-be18-4a5b5cb455fb)
- [Video: The IPL is over, and the so called fast bowling factories are quiet. Where are all the 140-150 kph bowlers they claimed to have produced? The truth is, skill gets you selected, not fake speed numbers from a manipulated gadget.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/08bf1a4b-dcdb-4430-b672-2587c25a0e09)
- [Video: These pace foundations are filled with bowlers who are supposedly 130-135 kph, yet they can't even get past district trials. The reason is simple: they lack skills. I'm calling out the entire system for producing stone-pelters, not cricketers.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/bff19587-8850-4eaa-9411-91c58c3bde26)
- [Video: Every fast bowling academy is full of kids who want to be fast bowlers, but they don't have the natural ability. The truth is, you can't just decide to be a fast bowler. You can, however, decide to become a skilled spin bowler, an art that can be learned.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/161d2dbe-c36a-4c17-abf0-5203200f66c2)
- [Video: A former cricketer explains the hard truth: you can't go from a 120 kph bowler to 135 kph. It's a myth. He shares his own experience and confirms that raw pace is something you either have or you don't.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/65a3835a-a004-450b-b4fc-37e1fd4eb943)
- [Video: To all the speed gun coaches: why don't you train your own relatives to become fast bowlers and play for India? The truth is, you can't. Your business is built on lies. Real coaching is about skill, not selling fake dreams of speed.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/77efdf78-e440-4d11-ba3a-fdcda542a621)
- [Video: A video of a 154 kph delivery on a pocket radar went viral, and it was later revealed as a joke. This is the reality of these gadgets. They are unreliable and used by fraudulent coaches to attract and deceive young, aspiring cricketers.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/e5427093-a72c-4ae6-89c4-f8d3396be8e7)
- [Video: These coaches say, "We'll teach you line and length later." That's the most difficult part of bowling. Even Bumrah wins matches with his accuracy, not just speed. Skill is what you need to learn; speed is what you are born with.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/c18df633-5855-4aab-8680-0a04ad7aea53)
- [Video: The truth about increasing your pace by 20 kph. It's a lie. Going from 105 to 125 kph is normal development. Going from 130 to 150 kph requires genetics. I challenge any coach who claims otherwise to prove it.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/832fff36-5a9d-43a4-9623-2ec88f800b5f)
- [Video: I'm challenging all the speed gun coaches to show me the match videos of their "best three bowlers." Let's see the real stats, the real speed, in a real game. Marketing should be based on products, not empty talk.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/ee4c08f8-79ff-4631-b9be-8f98d63f9a12)
- [Video: All the state T20 leagues are over. How many bowlers from these "fast bowling factories" actually played? The truth is, they don't get selected because they are stone-throwers, not skilled bowlers. It's time to wake up and focus on real cricket.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/5fbe8bb0-8a08-40b6-9dfe-588d020c3e9f)
- [Video: This is what happens when you focus on skill over fake speed. Mani Grewal, who works on his craft every day, got selected for Ranji Trophy. The 150 kph "Ferrari" bowlers from pace foundations are nowhere to be seen.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/fd0cd751-a747-4b84-91f4-af225b23cc9b)
- [Video: The new trend is "skill coaches," and they are the same guys who were selling "pace" two years ago. They've just changed their marketing because the old lies stopped working. Don't be fooled by the new packaging on the same old fraud.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/199ee416-f3e8-4620-b0f8-fbaddf122a99)
- [Video: Mayank Yadav is a BCCI asset because he is a genuine 150 kph bowler. The 25 other "150 kph" bowlers in Delhi are just Instagram reel bowlers. If you are genuinely fast, BCCI will find you. If not, focus on skill.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/23d939de-3094-4753-ad36-149feb54400f)
- [Video: A common tactic in these pace foundations is injury. Players are constantly injured from bad drills, then sent to affiliated physios for a commission. It's a mafia. Your injuries are international, but you haven't even played district level.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/21fb16b6-83ba-4653-ac4b-dc71fd3241b5)
- [Video: Any athlete's physical abilities have an age limit. But these pace mafias have no age limit for their customers. They will promise to make a 10 year old or a 30 year old a pacer. I dare them to post a video defining the age limit for pace development.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/c773281b-663a-4c72-adb0-d774df82f9cf)

Let's invest in real talent instead of just taking money from poor kids with false promises.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/ba874316-5038-4785-be23-0466e0a84e1c)
- [Video: Biomechanics can improve performance by 5-7%, but it can't make you the fastest. Look at javelin: the world record is 30 years old despite all the advances in science. Genetics is king. Stop misusing the term "biomechanics" for your जुगाड़ drills.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/a2467175-f980-4b8f-841d-cc10d1ebf379)
- [Video: Good diet and supplements can improve performance, but only genetics can make you a top-notch athlete. If money and training were everything, only rich kids would be champions. The X-factor is, and always will be, genetics.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/df0a96ba-63b4-4e5f-9135-d1c4d2432eb2)
- [Video: I have no personal issue with any of these coaches. My problem is with their methods. They use photos with famous players to mislead kids. Marketing with lies that destroy careers and families is where I draw the line.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/37729f9b-5fe3-4747-aa99-ebc4ee08dafe)
- [Video: A major issue in these pace foundations is age fraud. Kids are told to lie about their age by 4-5 years. You might get away with it for a while, but you will get caught in medical tests. Don't build your career on a foundation of lies.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/b4c51548-573d-477b-8dcb-563c81ea647a)
- [Video: These pace foundations train bowlers for years but never let them play matches. What are you practicing for? Show the world your "products" performing in actual matches. That's real marketing, not just empty claims.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/18349f49-a221-4b78-a5ff-6cb1096ff7b7)
- [Video: A fast bowling coach says some players come to him to become 140 kph, not 160. But he uses the same drills for everyone.

### My story

Dekho yaar, main khud khela hoon, Ranji Trophy tak. Bachpan se ek hi cheez samjhi - paisa nahi, player khelta hai. Bohot kuch dekha, jhooth bhi, struggles bhi. Isliye aaj sach bolne aaya hoon. Main negative nahi, bas realist hoon. Zindagi aur cricket, dono unpredictable hain. Mera mission simple hai - powerful humans banana, jo girne ke baad khud uth sake. Kalla hi kaafi hoon, system se ladne ko.

### My work

- **Strength & Conditioning, Cricket Coaching, Fitness Training**: Main powerful, thinking athletes banata hoon. Yeh robots wala kaam nahi hai. Personalized cricket coaching is my thing.
- **No 'Copy-Paste' Workouts**: Instagram se uthakar workout nahi milta. Har athlete ki need alag hoti hai, training specific hoti hai. Injury prevention for athletes is key.
- **Skills over Speed**: Main sapne nahi bechta. Fast bowling skill development, game awareness, line-length, tappa - yeh asli cheezein hain.
- **Train Smart, Not Just Long**: Ghanto practice nahi, quality aur intensity pe focus. Improvement pe kaam, thakaan pe nahi.
- **Mind is Everything**: Mental conditioning for cricketers - pressure handle karna, positive rehna, game samajhna. Body jitna mind bhi zaruri hai.
