Psychology of Sport and Exercise 21 (2015): 50-56. Library.gsu.edu. Web. 18 Sept. 2016. This article recounts the ten-year study of 15 Olympic athletes, some of which participated or had dual careers in different sports and the rest only focusing on a single sport.

This article demonstrates the successful psychological influence a different activity other than the athlete’s main sport can have on the retiree. This article will help me exemplify the causes of a difficult change from being one of the op athletes in the world to being an average person.

"Inside the Mind of a Master Procrastinator." Www.ted.com. N.p., Feb. 2016. Web. 19 Sept. 2016. During this ted talk, Tim Urban describes why people tend to procrastinate. Procrastination is due to the conflict between immediate satisfaction and long-term satisfaction. Also, he explains how the lack of an immediate deadline causes people to push off work in order to make way for activities that gives them instant pleasure. This relates to the fact that after athletes retire, they no longer have a competition, a game, or a meet to prepare for which causes them to push off exercising at their maximum and leads to physical deterioration and a lack of athletic identification. This article will help me explain why athletes stop working out after they retire due to them not having a purpose to keep training. The lack of training leads to misidentification as an athlete and reduction in physical abilities, which causes a more difficult shift to being a non-athlete without coping

Many people live their lives looking back on the glory days. They look at what they used to be instead of what they are now. They are so caught up in the past that they can’t fully engage in the present. Many athletes try to look back on the great accomplishments that they have achieved. They see the highlights of their life slip away from them as they get older.
Jacqueline Stenson states, “Intense training schedules. Pressure to win and be the best. Painful injuries. Given all these factors, it’s not surprising that some athletes simply burn out on their sport” (par 1). The evidence proves that a pro athlete can even burn out quickly, much less a growing kid.
Gerdy’s purpose while writing his article is to persuade them that sports have become an addiction. He writes “Like a drug addiction, we need to repeat the act again and again and again just to feel normal” (Gredy 14). To add to his claim, he talks about how sport’s lure is powerful: “We invest our effort and emotion in sports stars and teams rather than improving our own lives . . .” (Gerdy 14). He believes Americans spend too much time watching sports instead of bettering their lives with something like reading, writing, or learning a new skill.
