Overview
What is The CHAMP Factor?
The CHAMP Factor is a values-based nonprofit outreach program created to help people close the gap between potential and performance through Identity Analytics & Conditioning™.
We help people understand, analyze, strengthen, and condition the identity of the person that shows up from moment to moment so they can perform closer to their potential more consistently.
What makes The CHAMP Factor different?
Most development systems help people improve what they CAN do through technical, tactical, physical, mental, and other forms of development.
Those things are needed because they build potential.
The CHAMP Factor focuses on the identity (Will) of the person that shows up to use that potential.
✔ CAN = Potential.
✔ WILL = Performance.
Identity Analytics and Conditioning™ helps your will with your can.
Is The CHAMP Factor only for athletes?
No.
The principles of The CHAMP Factor can be applied across sports, family, school, work, leadership, relationships, personal growth, and other areas of life.
Does The CHAMP Factor replace mental performance coaching, counseling, therapy, or sports psychology?
No.
The CHAMP Factor is a complement, not a competitor.
It can work alongside:
✔ Coaches
✔ Mental performance professionals
✔ Sports psychologists
✔ Counselors
✔ Therapists
✔ Athletic trainers
✔ Academic support professionals
✔ Leadership and personal-development professionals
The CHAMP Factor has its own area of focus:
Identity Analytics & Conditioning™.
It does not provide clinical diagnosis, therapy, legal advice, medical advice, crisis intervention, or services outside its established scope.
Does The CHAMP Factor guarantee results?
No.
Outcomes are influenced by many factors, including circumstances outside a person's control.
✔ Someone can perform like a CHAMP and still experience an outcome they did not want.
✔ Someone can also receive the outcome they wanted while producing Gameplay they would not want to repeat.
The goal is to help people understand their moments, analyze how they are showing up, and continually move into a stronger position to influence what comes next.
The System
What is The CHAMP Factor System?
The CHAMP Factor System is the method people repeatedly train to intentionally understand, analyze, condition, and strengthen the identity of the person who shows up from moment to moment.
It is organized around three continuous processes:
✔ Understand.
✔ Analyze.
✔ Condition.
These are not one-time stages. They are processes people repeatedly use as they experience new moments.
What is Identity Analytics & Conditioning™?
✔ Identity Analytics helps people evaluate how they are thinking, feeling, choosing, acting, and showing up within a moment.
✔ Identity Conditioning intentionally strengthens and reinforces the identity that shows up from moment to moment.
Together, they help move someone from simply noticing what happened to intentionally deciding what should be strengthened, balanced, reinforced, or adjusted next.
What is CHAMP Identity?
CHAMP Identity explains what it means to Be a CHAMP and Do CHAMP Things and how identity influences the way someone shows up from moment to moment.
It becomes practical when a person chooses and demonstrates that identity in real situations rather than treating it as an abstract idea.
The CHAMP Check provides five Identity Indicators that help people observe and self-coach their CHAMP Identity:
✔ Control
✔ Heightened Focus
✔ Attitude
✔ Mental Relaxation
✔ Passion
What does Understand. Analyze. Condition. mean?
✔ Understand
Understand what's happening and why.
✔ Analyze
Evaluate how identity is showing up within the moment.
✔ Condition
Intentionally strengthen and reinforce the identity you want to bring into what comes next.
People continually repeat all three processes as new moments create new experiences and evidence.
What does Know Yourself. Grow Yourself. Lead Yourself. Lead Others. mean?
This is The CHAMP Factor Development Pathway.
✔ Know Yourself
Understand yourself and how you experience moments.
✔ Grow Yourself
Intentionally strengthen and condition the identity that shows up.
✔ Lead Yourself
Move from understanding into intentional application.
✔ Lead Others
Use what you have developed to productively influence and help others grow.
The pathway describes what the system is designed to develop over time.
Can The CHAMP Factor be used during a real moment?
Yes. This is why it was created.
The system is designed for use before, during, and after real moments.
Some components support deeper reflection and preparation. Others help create an intentional interruption and direct attention toward the next CHAMP choice or action while the moment is still unfolding.
The Training Lab
What is The CHAMP Training Lab?
The CHAMP Training Lab is the online environment where The CHAMP Factor System is taught, practiced, reinforced, and conditioned over time.
It is designed to move people beyond simply knowing the system and into intentionally using and living it.
Is The CHAMP Factor a course?
No. This is NOT a course you complete in 3 days or 6 weeks.
The CHAMP Factor is a system you train and use.
Think of it like playing a sport.
Identity is not strengthened through static courses. The Training Lab reinforces the system through:
✔ Immersion,
✔ Language,
✔ Repetition,
✔ Application
✔ Reflection
✔ Practice
✔ and experience over time.
How much time does the Training Lab require?
The Training Lab is designed to fit into real life.
Training experiences are intentionally short and focused so people can learn and reinforce the system consistently without needing long blocks of time.
The goal is not simply to consume more information.
The goal is to train the system well enough to use it from moment to moment.
What happens inside the Training Lab?
The Training Lab uses connected training experiences including:
✔ CHAMP Talks
Short, focused video or audio messages that bring The CHAMP Factor System to life in a practical, engaging way.
Each week explores different ideas, situations, and angles to help people better understand the system and recognize how it applies to the moments they experience.
✔ CHAMP Insights
Help people recognize the system through timeless wisdom, quotes, and everyday life.
✔ The CHAMP Factor Film Room
Applies the system to real, everyday moments. (See the next question for an in-depth overview)
✔ CHAMP Audio Tracks
Condition beliefs, identity, emotional regulation, self-talk, and CHAMP Language through repetition.
✔ CHAMP Conversations
Help people process what they are learning through discussion, reflection, questions, and coaching.
✔ CHAMP Challenges
Create opportunities to apply the system in everyday life.
What is The CHAMP Factor Film Room?
The CHAMP Factor Film Room turns real moments into training opportunities.
Athletes, parents, coaches, and others can submit situations they have experienced or witnessed in sports and everyday life.
Each week, selected moments are broken down through the lens of The CHAMP Factor System to better understand what may be happening, how identity may be showing up, and what could be strengthened or adjusted for what comes next.
Because submissions come from people and organizations across the country, members are continually exposed to moments, questions, challenges, and situations they may not have experienced themselves.
That creates a powerful advantage:
You do not have to experience every situation yourself to learn from it.
The Film Room also gives members ongoing access to how the creator of The CHAMP Factor System, RevKev Nathaniel, would understand and analyze real situations using the system itself.
Over time, every new scenario becomes another opportunity to:
✔ Recognize it.
✔ Understand it.
✔ Analyze it.
✔ Prepare for it.
That is what makes the Film Room more than a library of examples.
It is a growing training environment built around real moments happening in real life.
Access & Partnerships
How do individuals access The CHAMP Factor?
Individuals can begin by choosing the pathway that best fits them.
If you already have access through a family, team, school, club, or partner organization, follow that access path.
If your team or organization does not currently offer The CHAMP Factor, you can still complete the appropriate interest process and we’ll help determine the best next step.
Can parents participate too?
Can The CHAMP Factor complement training or support we already provide?
Yes.
That is intentional.
The CHAMP Factor is designed to complement the technical, tactical, physical, mental, educational, counseling, leadership, and other development resources people or organizations may already use.
Its distinct contribution is a practical system for understanding, analyzing, and conditioning the identity that shows up from moment to moment.
