Dr Amy Izycky is a clinical psychologist and a psychodynamic psychotherapist specialising in neuropsychology.

Amy joins Nashy to discuss high level sport and performance.

Amy has been part of Luke and Tom Stoltmans camp in the build up to this years Worlds Strongest Man.

Amy's new book 'Skewed to the Right.'

Explores how the demands of the high-performance athlete are huge, with many celebrated for their achievements, and put on a pedestal for admired personality traits such as discipline, sacrifice, commitment, and focus. This book seeks to explore the celebrated traits of the high-performance athlete and, by doing so, to increase awareness of the vulnerability that such traits also present.

The conversation discusses what it takes to constantly perform at an elite level along with the effects obsessionality, masochism, and focus can have on an athlete when competing and in life after sport.
