ABSTRACT Introduction: The modern pentathlon requires athletes to participate in 5 individual sports (fencing, swimming, equestrian, running, and shooting combined) in one day. All of these belong to different categories, resulting in high demand for physical and mental control by the athlete. The importance of psychological factors in everyday physical activity has increased attention. Objective: This paper explores the role of comprehensive psychological training in modern pentathlon. Methods: Forty-seven modern pentathletes were selected by random sampling method. A questionnaire survey method was used to analyze the volunteers. Interviews on the psychological status of the athletes before the competition were also conducted. Finally, a statistical method was used to determine the participants’ interview and questionnaire results. Results: The athletes in all five sports experienced high stress before the competitions. The second highest stress was during preparation, before the games. The incidence of anxiety, indifference, and disproportionate confidence before the competition was lower. Conclusion: The psychological state of modern pentathletes before competition is directly related to their competitive state and level. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
