About the Athletic Insight Sports Psychology and Exercise Organization

Athletic Insight Sports Psychology and Exercise Organization is a privately held company that was established in 1999 by Robert Schinke, PhD. Athletic Insight was created to serve as a peer-reviewed, non-proprietary journal that thoroughly discussed the field of sports psychology.

The first Athletic Insight article was published in 1999, with over 140 additional co-authored publications by Schinke spanning over a 20 year time-frame. These Athletic Insight publications have been featured on Harvard Business Review, Insider, The New York Times, Slate, Vice, Business Insider, Time, BBC and many additional university publications.

Additionally, Schinke “co-edited the International Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology (Autumn, 2009), the Journal of Clinical Sport Psychology (Autumn, 2011), the Journal of Sport and Social Issues (Autumn, 2011), Qualitative Research in Sport, Exercise and Health (Autumn, 2013), Psychology of Sport and Exercise (January, 2015), the International Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology (2016) focused on research in developing countries, and the Journal of Sport Psychology in Action (2016) focused on contextual sport psychology” (1).

In 2021, Parker Russell further expanded the original Athletic Insight mission by founding the Athletic Insight Athlete Exercise Organization to train and educate athletes around the world in the areas of exercise, health and overall fitness. Today, Athletic Insight is a one-stop shop for all information on health, sports psychology, fitness and product reviews.

What is the mission of Athletic Insight?

The mission of Athletic Insight is to provide scientific research for better athlete performance, exercise and health support (both physically and mentally) with a goal of keeping the athleticism alive for young generations for many years to come.

Through the publication of hundreds of Sports and Athlete Psychology Research articles, Athletic Insight continues with helping the athletes to learn more about their mental states and performance. From handling performance anxiety, to providing lifestyle support and mental health support for everyone through countless scholarly articles and in-depth research.

While the mission of Athletic Insight started with a focus on sports psychology, the focus has shifted towards fitness and bodybuilding exercise information providing coverage of topics such as muscle growth, muscle and bone health, weightlifting form and routines, diet and overall fitness.

What is the Background of Athletic Insight Sport Psychology Magazine?

The Athletic Insight Sport Psychology Magazine, otherwise known as Athletic Insight: The Online Journal of Sport Psychology, was founded in 1999 by Robert Schinke, PhD in Hauppauge, NY, USA.

The purpose of Athletic Insight Sport Psychology Magazine was to serve as an educational source that thoroughly discussed the field of sports psychology. After a nearly 20 year run, the progress of Athletic Insight Sport Psychology Magazine came to a halt as Schinke became the President of the International Society of Sport Psychology, as well as becoming a full professor at Laurentian University School of Human Kinetics.

Helping the Universities grow their scholarly work has been a key fundamental Athletic Insight has upheld.

In addition to helping the scientific researchers gain new information, a driving force for our strict auditing process has been the desire of guiding the professional athletes so that they can compete at the highest level. Whether it is overcoming a mental hurdle, or treating the anxiety of athletes, Athletic Insight aims to help the world of competitive sports in a way that is more than just coaching the professional athletes.

Additionally, we do not collect individual user information, we do not disclose your personal identity, we do not use cookies or tracking information unless explicitly stated, and we respect all browser privacy. The Privacy Policy can be further reviewed in our Privacy Policy section and is subject to change at any time.

What is the Content Integrity of Athletic Insight?

Content Integrity is the process of managing and assuring the integrity and accuracy of information that is made available to the general public. In regards to Athletic Insight, that means that we do not share content unless it has been audited and checked for complete accuracy to the best of our ability.

Starting with a strict editorial process, Athletic Insight publishes content in a way that does not allow for ambiguity, or misleading information. Our product selection and recommendations uses conscious language which is the science of choosing words that only express true intent.

Athletic Insight values the end users’ health above all else and recommends that you consult with your doctor, dietician, trainer, etc. before making any major health related changes. While we perform our due diligence and make it our mission to protect the health of every user that interacts with our content, science is constantly changing.

How is the Athletic Insight Editorial Process?

The Athletic Insight editorial process is a multitiered approach to ensure absolute integrity and the prioritization of accuracy. Earning and maintaining the trust of our readers is a priority at Athletic Insight. We are always striving to make changes to our content by updating and continual monitoring of the content, regular content audits and annual brand vetting.

Athletic Insight maintains journalistic standards in regards to all content that is published while also making it a priority that we use inclusive language in our editorial process. This is to ensure diversity is acknowledged and all populations are represented, especially since having empathy with researchers and readers is critical to our success.

How is the Athletic Insight Approach for Product Selection?

Athletic Insight performs rigorous tests and audits before recommending a product. Starting with a historical data and quality check of the product, along with checking the product manufacturer brand’s background, we try to determine if the product is one that we can confidently trust.

After using the product in our test environment, we then perform a quality and health check, followed by researching the material and maintenance. If the product passes our audit and we feel that it is worth a recommendation, we then do so. We will always disclose when a product is sponsored and will never give a misleading review.

How does Athletic Insight use the Inclusive Language?

Athletic Insight uses inclusive language which is the practice of conveying respect to all groups of people and acknowledging their differences while making it a priority to not offend any groups.

In order to achieve this, we take a genderless content approach, meaning that we are always writing for both women and men, as well as any other genders. We also do not use sexist, racist, or prejudiced language within our content. At Athletic Insight, we believe that all human beings are equal.

For the sake of our research, we understand that correlation does not equal causation, but we may periodically infer based upon observation and data from studies that show to have been reliable and possess true validity.

How does Athletic Insight use Conscious Language?

Athletic Insight uses conscious language which is the science of picking words that express true intent in order to create empathetic, inclusive, and non-stigmatizing content. We do not write content that is misleading and express our findings purely based on scholarly research, testing and firsthand observation.

When it comes to language used, we first use empathy-first language when at all possible to provide a sense of empathy for our readership. Rather than using a negative connotation when describing someone, we would replace it with something neutral. For example, if someone became infected with a virus, we would say that they “contracted” a virus opposed to saying that they were “infected” with a virus.

Additionally, we make it a priority to take a person-first approach over an identity-first approach. While there are groups of people that prefer an identity-first approach, the majority of people prefer a person-first approach. An example of this would be if we were writing an article about diabetes and we chose to refer to a subject as “a person with diabetes” (person-first approach) opposed to “a diebetic person” (identity-first approach).

How does Athletic Insight support Eco-friendliness for a better world?

Eco-friendly is the practice of protecting Earth’s ecosystem. Athletic Insight takes an eco-friendly approach when it comes to testing and publishing content. We use eco-friendly hosting, properly recycle resources and our staff uses eco-friendly tools and materials. Some members even take it a step further by protecting nature with natural foods and lifestyle support.

How does Athletic Insight value diversity, equity and inclusion?

Athletic Insight not only uses inclusive language when writing content for our viewers, but we also include every type of person, from every community, when doing research and testing. From supporting black communities and athletes to respecting the LGBTQ+ community, Athletic Insight is for everyone.

Which Universities did feature the Athletic Insight with their scientific approach?

The following Universities, Healthcare Corporations, and scholarly databases have used our data in the past as a scholarly reference for countless publications.
