CONCENTRATION AND SELF-CONTROL IN THE UTILITY SWIMMING RACE IN THE NAVAL PENTATHLON

Abstract

The modernization of the military system and its adaptation to the requirements of European norms has become a necessity for the Romanian naval pentathlon. In our research, we will propose a new concept of mental training for the athletes who are part of the utility swimming team.
Objective:
- Explanation of the training process of the athletes who are part of the naval pentathlon team from the point of view of physical and mental parameters
- Establishing the efficiency of the methods for improving the concentration and self-control of the athletes participating in the utility swimming race.
- Notification of conclusions
Research methods: Studying the bibliography, tests for the attention and concentration of pentathlon athletes.
The results obtained after the tests should confirm that the attention and self-concentration level of military athletes on the naval pentathlon team has increased.
From a psychological point of view, the military athletes were stimulated by external intervention (mental training), but also by autosuggestion and auto impulsion.
