PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL VARIABLES KABADDI - G. R. Sridhar Kumar - Bog

Kabaddi is a contact sport that requires a combination of physical and mental skills. Physical variables such as agility, speed, strength, endurance, body composition, flexibility, reaction time, coordination, and balance are essential to achieve optimal performance in Kabaddi. Psychological variables such as focus, motivation, confidence, anxiety, stress, and mental toughness also play a crucial role in determining the success of Kabaddi players.
Physical fitness is critical for Kabaddi players to perform at their best level. They need to maintain their physical attributes throughout the season to perform consistently. Psychological variables are equally important as they can influence an athlete's ability to focus, cope with stress and pressure, and perform under challenging circumstances.
Coaches and trainers need to develop training programs that cater to both physical and mental variables to enhance Kabaddi players' performance. Integrating psychological skills training with physical training can help players develop a robust mental framework to cope with pressure situations and perform to their maximum potential.
