Psychological monitoring of overtraining and staleness.

Abstract: It is widely agreed that overtraining should be employed in order to achieve peak performance but it is also recognised that overtraining can actually produce decrements in performance. The challenge appears to be one of monitoring stress indicators in the athlete in order to titrate the training stimulus and prevent the onset of staleness. The present paper summarises a ten-year research effort in which the mood states of competitive swimmers have been monitored at intervals ranging from 2-4 weeks during indi… Show more

“…Many studies highlighted the importance of the POMS questionnaire in evaluating mental fatigue in players. 19,20 The results of the present study indicated that SSGNE caused a significant increase in total mood disturbance (TMD), tension and a significant decrease in vigor unlike the SSGE which resulted in no-change. This indicates that SSGNE elicits an increase in negative statements and decreased positive mood.…”

“…Um dos instrumentos psicológicos que tem sido efetivo e sensível em detectar sinais que antecedem a manifestação da síndrome do excesso de treinamento (18) é o POMS, "Perfil dos estados de Humor" (1) . Observou-se, por meio de alguns estudos (19) , que o fator fadiga elevado equiparado ao fator depressão elevado, apresentado no gráfico individual do POMS, parece ser o produto do excesso de treinamento, e os fatores depressão, confusão mental e raiva acima do escore padrão, são considerados como estados de alteração emocional. Uma das versões abreviadas do POMS foi validada para o uso em adolescentes (POMS-A) (20) , e posteriormente passou por um rigoroso processo de validação para avaliação em adultos (21) , passando a se denominar BRUMS, Escala de Humor de Brunel.…”

“…Psychological states are influenced by the type of activity and the training load (Bresciani et al, 2011;Fry et al, 1993;Morgan et al, 1987). For this reason, sport psychology specialists have sought to develop reliable tests and surveys to determine the psychological state of players.…”
