Relationship of intensity in sport training with sports performance, physical fitness and emotional variables

Abstract

Player involvement in sports training depends on numerous factors. Given the need to improve the teaching-learning process, the study's objective was to determine the relationship between the intensity of players in team sports training with sports performance, physical condition, and psychological variables such as emotional intelligence or life satisfaction. A questionnaire was administered in which the variables mentioned above were assessed on 61 young athletes from Costa Rica from four team sports. Likewise, athletes wore an accelerometer to measure training intensity. The results showed interesting associations between the variables studied with the player's training intensity and the perception of their sports performance. In conclusion, emotional intelligence and physical condition influence the intensity of training. Similar studies are needed to provide more data.
