THE 7-WEEK TRAINING THAT BUILDS A TOP FLIGHT ATHLETE
Your athlete already has the talent. Protocol builds the athlete who can use it under pressure.
Seven weeks. The Hero's Code, the Confidence Loop, the Inner Citadel, the Personal Playbook. Identity that holds when the pressure does not.
Built by Coach James Iggy.
20+ years of competitive coaching. Master's degree in Exercise Physiology.
Athletes from his 1:1 work have gone on to compete at NCAA DI, DII, DIII, and NAIA levels.
Their next showcase is on the calendar. Their next tryout is coming. Seven weeks of training has to start somewhere.
YOU'VE SEEN IT HAPPEN
Practice: Confident, aggressive, locked in
Games: Overthinking, tentative, spiraling after mistakes
Training: Working hard, showing potential
Competition: Disappearing when it matters, playing small under pressure
Same athlete. Same talent. Different mental preparation.
Here's why:
Your program says "stay focused" and "shake it off" and hopes that's enough.
It's not.
Mental performance doesn't develop naturally. It's trained. Elite programs train it. Yours doesn't.
That's not your athlete's fault. That's a system gap.
Top Flight: Protocol
10-Week Cohort | Advanced Mental Training System
Top Flight: Protocol is what elite programs build on top of foundational mental habits.
Not generic mental toughness. Position-specific, game-situation soccer mental training.
How it works:
Content releases weekly (You can't work ahead. Each week builds on the last).
The community keeps you accountable. Weekly assignments ensure progressive mastery.
OVER 7 WEEKS, YOUR ATHLETE BUILDS:
WEEK 1 — THE HERO'S CODE Identity and foundation. The Hero's March begins. Daemon vs. Demon. Build the Heroic Code your athlete carries through every game, every test, every hard conversation.
WEEK 2 — THE CONFIDENCE FORGE Confidence is a trained skill, not a personality trait. The Confidence Loop. Rewriting limiting beliefs. The 3R Recovery Model for post-mistake reset.
WEEK 3 — THE INNER CITADEL Resilience and emotional mastery. The Inner Fortress they retreat to under fire. Fear as Fuel. The Competitor Voice.
WEEK 4 — LASER FOCUS AND FLOW Attention as a weapon. The W.I.N. framework. Mental rehearsal and visualization. Trust your training when it counts.
WEEK 5 — THE CHAMPION'S BLUEPRINT Structure that makes excellence repeatable. The Best Day Blueprint. WOOP goals (Wish, Outcome, Obstacle, Plan). The Daily Protocol Stack.
WEEK 6 — BECOME YOUR OWN COACH Self-coaching capability. Spot the patterns. Build the Personal Playbook of what works for them specifically.
WEEK 7 — THE LEGACY TRIAL Integration and identity lock. Compete against their former self. The 7-Day Hero's Challenge. Finalize the Heroic Code they carry from here forward.
Three videos per week. Daily practice protocols. By week 7, they have a complete personal mental training system they can use for the rest of their career.
WHAT YOUR ATHLETE ACTUALLY LEARNS
This is not a course you binge. It is a training program with sequential weekly unlocks. Each week installs tools that the next week builds on.
WEEK 1: THE HERO'S CODE
Video 1: What Makes a Top Flight Athlete?
Video 2: Daemon vs. Demon
Video 3: Build Your Heroic Code
Your athlete starts by answering the question that separates good from great: "Who am I when it's tough?"
They learn the difference between their Daemon (their inner hero) and their Demon (the voice of fear and quitting). They build their Heroic Code: three identity words, a power phrase, and a daily action.
By the end of Week 1: They carry a written code they can return to in any pressure moment. Identity becomes their anchor.
WEEK 2: THE CONFIDENCE FORGE
Video 1: The Confidence Loop
Video 2: Rewriting Your Beliefs
Video 3: Post-Mistake Reset and the 3R Recovery Model
Confidence is trained, not born. Your athlete learns the Confidence Loop (courage → action → evidence → confidence) and starts rewriting the beliefs that have been holding their performance back. They install the 3R Recovery Model, so mistakes stop derailing them.
By the end of Week 2: Mistakes that used to cost them three minutes of game time cost them three seconds. They have a reset they can run on demand.
WEEK 3: THE INNER CITADEL
Video 1: Build Your Inner Fortress
Video 2: Fear as Fuel
Video 3: The Competitor Voice
Resilience is built from the inside. Your athlete builds their Inner Citadel, the mental fortress they retreat to when pressure hits. They learn to use fear as fuel instead of a brake. They train the Competitor Voice that runs the inner dialogue under fire.
By the end of Week 3: Pressure stops dictating their performance. They start dictating their response to pressure.
WEEK 4: LASER FOCUS AND FLOW
Video 1: Focus with Fire and W.I.N.
Video 2: Mental Rehearsal and Visualization
Video 3: Trust Your Training
Focus is the trained skill of returning to where it matters.
Your athlete learns the W.I.N. framework (What's Important Now), how to mentally rehearse before games, and how to trust their training in the moments when their conscious mind would interfere.
By the end of Week 4: 90-minute focus instead of 20-minute focus. Trained attention, not hope.
WEEK 5: THE CHAMPION'S BLUEPRINT
Video 1: The Best Day Blueprint
Video 2: Goals with Soul Using WOOP
Video 3: Your Daily Protocol Stack
Structure is what makes excellence repeatable. Your athlete builds their Best Day Blueprint (a written description of their best self in motion), sets goals using the WOOP framework, and locks in a Daily Protocol Stack that runs every day, with or without motivation.
By the end of Week 5: Excellence becomes a system, not a mood.
WEEK 6: BECOME YOUR OWN COACH
Video 1: You Are the Coach Now
Video 2: Spot the Patterns
Video 3: Your Personal Playbook
A great athlete is one who can coach themselves. Your athlete learns to spot their own patterns (what triggers their best performance and what triggers their worst), and writes their Personal Playbook of what works for them specifically.
By the end of Week 6: They no longer need someone else to tell them what to do. They have the playbook.
WEEK 7: THE LEGACY TRIAL
Video 1: Compete Against Your Former Self
Video 2: The 7-Day Hero's Challenge
Video 3: Your Heroic Code, Finalized
The final week is the integration trial. Your athlete competes against the person they were on Day 1. They take on the 7-Day Hero's Challenge, a deliberate test of every tool they have built. They finalize the Heroic Code they will carry from here forward.
By the end of Week 7: They have their own complete mental performance system. They are no longer the athlete they were when they started.
THE DIFFERENCE 7 WEEKS MAKES
WITHOUT TOP FLIGHT: PROTOCOL (Current State):
Minute 15: Make a mistake, spiral for 3 minutes
Minute 60: Focus drifts, mental mistakes late in games
Showcase pressure: Takes 15-20 minutes to settle in, misses early opportunities
After being beat: Dwells on it, positioning suffers next play
Mental training: Generic "stay focused" advice, no systematic training
Scout observation: "Talented but inconsistent, slow to recover, needs time to get into games."
WITH TOP FLIGHT: PROTOCOL (After 7 Weeks):
Minute 15: Make a mistake, reset in 3 seconds using the trained 3R Recovery Model
Minute 60: Maintain focus using the W.I.N. framework, no late-game mental drift
Showcase pressure: Run the pre-game protocol from their Daily Protocol Stack, ready from kickoff
After being beat: Use the Inner Citadel to recover instantly, not three minutes later
Mental training: 7 weeks of systematic identity, confidence, and focus training, all installed as automatic behavior
Scout observation: "Mentally trained, composed, professional approach, leads by example."
Same talent. Different mental preparation. Different outcomes.
TRAINED. NOT MOTIVATIONAL.
This is not a content library. It is a 7-week training program that installs identity, confidence, and focus as automatic behaviors. Your athlete does not just learn the tools. They train them until they cannot lose them.
HOW PROTOCOL IS DELIVERED
Sequential weekly unlock. Your athlete cannot binge through it. Each week is engineered to be lived, not just watched.
Weekly structure:
☑️ Monday: Three videos unlock for the week
☑️ Throughout week: Daily practice protocols, 10 minutes per day
☑️ Friday: Weekly reflection and Virtue Meter check-in
☑️ Sunday: Prepare for the next week's unlock
What is locked vs. unlocked:
Week 1 unlocks the moment your athlete starts. Week 2 unlocks seven days after Week 1. Each subsequent week unlocks seven days after the previous. After Week 7 completes, lifetime access to everything.
Why this structure:
Identity is not installed by watching videos. It is installed by living the protocols for seven days at a time. The structure removes the temptation to rush. Each tool gets a week of real-world reps before the next tool stacks on top.
WHO BUILT THIS
Coach Iggy | Director of Performance, Top Flight Mentality
20+ years coaching soccer. Masters degree in Exercise Physiology.
I built Top Flight: Protocol because I was the athlete who dominated practice and disappeared in games.
Not because I lacked talent. Because nobody taught me the mental protocols elite programs train.
I spent 20+ years building what the system should have provided:
identity-driven mental training, sequential skill installation, and the tools that make excellence repeatable.
Over my coaching career, I have worked 1:1 with hundreds of athletes from middle school through college. Some have gone on to compete at NCAA Division I, II, III, and NAIA levels.
The principles those athletes used are the same principles Top Flight: Protocol now packages into a 7-week training program for your access.
This is not motivational content. It is systematic training.
⚠️ THIS IS NOT FOR EVERYONE ⚠️
Top Flight: Protocol is not:
❌ Motivational speeches ❌ Generic "believe in yourself" content ❌ Self-paced material you can binge ❌ Quick fixes or magic bullets
Protocol is:
✔️ 7-week structured training program ✔️ Weekly content unlocks (cannot work ahead) ✔️ Daily 10-minute practice protocols ✔️ Identity-driven mental skill installation ✔️ Self-coaching capability built by Week 6 ✔️ Heroic Code finalized by Week 7
This requires commitment.
10 minutes daily for 7 weeks. Weekly assignments. Staying current with the cohort.
If your athlete won't commit to that, don't join Top Flight: Protocol.
But if they will:
They'll train mental performance the same way elite programs train it.
With structure. With accountability. With results.
WHO TOP FLIGHT: PROTOCOL IS FOR
✅ Compete at levels where mental training creates competitive advantages
✅ Can commit to 10 minutes daily for 7 weeks
✅ Want identity-driven training that lasts a career (not motivational content that fades)
✅ Value structured progression and accountability
✅ Are ready to start their Hero's March when they enroll
14-DAY GUARANTEE
Start the cohort. Complete the first 2 weeks.

No questions asked.
You either get results or you get your money back.
Simple.
Limited spots per cohort. When spots fill, you wait until next quarter.
Elite programs train mental performance systematically. Your athlete competes against kids in those programs. Close the gap.
YOU ARE PART OF THE FOUNDING COHORT
Top Flight: Protocol launched in 2026 as the signature mental performance program built on the Top Flight 7 foundation. Founding members are the first cohort to train on these protocols in their current form. Their results will appear on this page as they come in. Your athlete can be one of them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Top Flight: Protocol is a 7-week mental performance training program for competitive teen athletes. It is built on the Top Flight 7 foundation and trains identity, confidence, focus, resilience, structure, self-coaching, and integration through a sequential weekly unlock structure. By Week 7, your athlete has a complete personal mental training system.
Anytime. Week 1 unlocks the moment they enroll. Each subsequent week unlocks seven days after the previous. They progress on their own start date, not a fixed cohort calendar.
Because identity is not installed by watching videos. It is installed by living the protocols for seven days at a time. Each week builds on tools that need a full week of practice before the next tool stacks on top. The structure protects the results.
Lifetime access to all content. Your athlete can revisit any week anytime, refresh any protocol, and use the system for the rest of their career. All future updates are included.
Top Flight 7 installs the seven foundational habits (fuel, move, sleep, breath, focus, wins, lead). Protocol installs the seven advanced mental performance systems on top of that foundation (identity, confidence, resilience, focus, structure, self-coaching, integration). Foundation first, advanced second.
Three video lessons per week (10-14 minutes each, ~35 minutes total per week). Daily practice protocols, 10 minutes per day. Total active time per week: about 80 minutes. Less than one extra training session.
Your athlete will have built their Heroic Code, their Confidence Loop, their Inner Citadel, their Daily Protocol Stack, their Personal Playbook, and the ability to coach themselves. They will recover from mistakes in seconds instead of minutes, maintain focus across full games, and operate from a trained identity instead of a fluctuating mood. Most athletes start seeing changes in games by Week 3 or 4.
Online via Kajabi. Video lessons, daily practice protocols, weekly reflection prompts, and tracking systems. Works on desktop, tablet, and mobile.
Yes. 14-day guarantee. If your athlete completes the first two weeks and you do not see measurable improvement in mental performance, email me for a full refund. No questions asked.
The examples are soccer-forward, but the tools work for any sport and most areas of life. Many athletes report the protocols help them as much in school and relationships as on the field.
Email support throughout the program. Reply to any Top Flight Mentality email or write to CoachJamesIggy@TopFlightMentality.com.
Highly recommended but not required. Top Flight 7 installs the foundational habits (fuel, move, sleep, breath, focus, wins, lead) that Protocol builds on top of. Athletes who complete Top Flight 7 also earn the Heroic Access Pass, which unlocks Protocol at the $297 founding rate, saving $100 off the public price of $397.
CLOSE THE GAP
Your athlete has physical training. They have technical training.
What they don't have yet is trained identity under pressure.
Seven weeks. Three videos per week. Ten minutes of practice per day. By the end, they have built their own Heroic Code and a complete mental performance system they will use for the rest of their career.
That's the gap.
Top Flight: Protocol closes it.
