Purpose: The training load and mood status of elite canoe polo players training for 2004 World Championships was examined. Methods: A weekly training log and the questionnaire of the Profile of Mood States (POMS) were measured for 14 national team players (8 senior and 6 U21, average age: 22.21 ± 2.36 yr) at 1, 4, 6 and 7 week of their pre-World Championship training. One-way repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to test the difference of weekly training and mood states. Results: The results indicated that weekly training hours of canoe polo players during competition phase were less than other training phases. However, no difference was found among different training phases in the total mood disturbance scores, suggesting that players' total mood disturbance was not affected as the training volume decreased. Further, the individual anger and depression mood was found worse after World Championship. Conclusion: The POMS can be used to monitor mood changes during different phases of training and competition. The worsened anger and depression mood after World Championship were possibly due to their poor performance. Therefore, more studies are needed to investigate the relationship between mood and performance. |
