Is it true that the same Hypnosis Techniques that Glenn Eller and Vincent Hancock used to win Gold Medals can help you Lose Weight and Quit Smoking? Dan Vitchoff says YES!

Walton Glenn Eller and Vincent Hancock teamed up with Pittsburgh’s own Mental Training and Performance Coach, Dan Vitchoff to win Gold Medals at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, China. The methods and techniques that Dan Vitchoff utilized to help these Elite Athletes perform flawlessly under pressure are a unique combination of Hypnosis, Sports Psychology, NLP, Visualization and Imagery that Dan has coined as “The 33 Method” Mental Training and Performance Coaching.

Long before Dan Vitchoff began coaching some of the World’s Best Athletes he was utilizing the same methods and techniques to help his clients at PA Hypnosis Center, located in Pittsburgh, PA make positive changes in their lives. Over the years, Dan Vitchoff and his staff at PA Hypnosis Center have helped thousands of people Lose Weight, Quit Smoking, Stop Chewing Tobacco, Reduce Stress, Tension and Anxiety, Overcome Insomnia, Improve Sports Performance and Overcome Fears, Phobias and Undesirable Habits.

Although having a goal of winning a Gold Medal at the Olympics is very different from having a goal to lose 50 pounds or to become a non-smoker for the rest of your life, the same methods and techniques can be applied for all of the above. “The 33 Method” is a process of training your mind and training your body. You can train your mind to perform flawlessly under pressure, you can train your mind to change the way you think and feel about food and you can train your mind to become a non-smoker for the rest of your life.

Sports Psychology, Hypnosis and Dan Vitchoff; Glenn Eller’s Keys to Gold Medal Success at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, China

Congratulations to Walton Glenn Eller, who won the Gold Medal in Men’s Double
Trap at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, China.   It was a historical day
for Glenn as he set two Olympic Records, one for a qualifying score of 145 and
one for a total score of 190.  The third time was a charm for the Katy, Texas native
Glenn Eller who finished 12th in the 2000  Summer Olympics and 17th in 2004.  Glenn proved himself to be the best in the world in Double Trap as he performed strongly under pressure throughout the entire competition.  After winning the Gold Medal, Glenn said that once he finished up the second series with a score of 97, he felt good about his chances of winning.  Glenn has been working with Dan Vitchoff on “Mastering the Mental Game” for months leading up to the Olympics and his intense concentration and focus helped him win the gold and break two Olympic Records in Beijing. 

Hats off to Jeff Holguin who delivered a fine performance to finish Fourth in Men’s Double Trap at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, China.  Jeff remained steady and focused throughout the competition missing the Bronze by only two targets.

Update from Dan Vitchoff on the 2008 Summer Olympics, Beijing, China

Congratulations to Corey Cogdell, who won the Bronze in Women’s Trap under intense pressure by hitting 21 targets in the finals to set an Olympic Record. She struggled a little bit in the beginning but finished strong to force a shoot out. Four women tied for third place and the first three shot and missed. Corey took some time to calm herself down and focus and concentrate before hitting her target to claim her medal. Corey said that she was actually quite relaxed during the finals which goes to show exactly how important mental training and preparation is. “The 33 Method” Performance Coaching Techniques help athletes and business executives remain calm, confident and focused under pressure.

The techniques that make up “The 33 Method” are building blocks for a “Structure of Excellence” that not only applies to athletic performance but corporate performance as well. Similar to Olympic Athletes, high level executives and successful salespeople are highly motivated, detail oriented and hold themselves to high expectations. Beijing, China has become known for it’s Corporate Excellence and a perfect example is Michael Lucas, General Manager of the Mercure Wangshang, Beijing. Michael is the epitome of excellence in customer service and hospitality; he has exceeded expectations and made special arrangements for guests of his hotel during the 2008 Summer Olympic Games. A staff that speaks English and a 24 hour hot line that guests of the hotel can call when they need a translator are just two of the special accommodations that Michael Lucas has made in preparation for the 2008 Summer Olympic Games. I’m sure that you remember the cereal commercials that say, ” Mikey likes it, he’ll eat anything; we have our own version of that saying now which is, “Ask Mikey, he can get you anything.” This is the kind of Corporate Excellence that can be achieved with, “The 33 Method Executive Performance Coaching.”
