Abstract in brief

  • Training with anxiety helps experts improve their perceptual-motor performance under pressure, reducing the risk of choking during stressful situations.
  • The studies showed that only after practicing under anxiety did players and dart throwers maintain their performance when anxiety levels increased.
  • This suggests that exposure to anxiety during training helps experts become accustomed to pressure, thereby strengthening their ability to perform well under stressful conditions.]

El entrenamiento con presión (PT) utiliza tareas importantes donde hay muy pocas oportunidades para hacerlo bien o existen consecuencias en las mismas. El PT no cambia la cantidad de presión que los atletas sienten, pero cambia su relación con la presión https://t.co/wgX6gNhXPP
