Resumo: The objective of this investigation was to understand the motivations for the sport practice of Brazilian amateur and professional triathletes and to investigate the relationship established by them between motivation and sport trajectory. Twelve triathletes participated in this study, aged between 19 and 67 years. A semi-structured interview was used as a research instrument. Data were analyzed through thematic content analysis. As a result, triathletes are motivated intrinsically and extrinsically. It was also found that Triathlon athletes start their sports career in the modality late, as a result of social factors related to studies, family and work or because they initially dedicate themselves to an isolated modality. It was concluded that conditions such as social status, concern with physical shape, intense dedication to the modality and the presence of either intrinsic or extrinsic motivations seem to be determining factors for entry and permanence of triathletes in the modality.

Doce triatletas participaron en este estudio, con edades entre 19 y 67 años. Se utilizó como instrumento de investigación una entrevista semiestructurada. Como resultado, los triatletas están motivados por motivos intrínsecos e extrínsecos. También se encontró que los deportistas de Triatlón inician su carrera deportiva en la modalidad de forma tardía, como consecuencia de factores sociales relacionados con los estudios, la familia y el trabajo o porque inicialmente se dedican a una modalidad aislada. Se concluyó que condiciones como el estatus social, la preocupación por la forma física, la intensa dedicación a la modalidad y la presencia de motivaciones intrínsecas o extrínsecas parecen ser factores determinantes para el ingreso y permanencia de los triatletas en la modalidad.O objetivo dessa investigação foi compreender as motivações para a prática esportiva de triatletas brasileiros amadores e profissionais e investigar a relação estabelecida por eles entre motivação e trajetória esportiva. Participaram desse estudo 12 triatletas, com idades entre 19 e 67 anos. Utilizou-se como instrumento de pesquisa uma entrevista semiestruturada. Os dados foram analisados através da análise de conteúdo temática. Como resultado, triatletas são motivados por razões distintas, tanto de forma intrínseca como extrínseca. Verificou-se também que atletas de Triathlon iniciam sua trajetória esportiva dentro da modalidade tardiamente, em decorrência de fatores sociais relacionados aos estudos, família e trabalho ou por se dedicarem inicialmente a uma modalidade isolada. Concluiu-se que condições como status social, preocupação com a forma física, intensa dedicação a modalidade e presença de motivações ora intrínsecas, ora extrínsecas parecem ser fatores determinantes para ingresso e permanência de triatletas na modalidade.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2022-10-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/motrivivencia/article/view/8647810.5007/2175-8042.2022.e86478Motrivivência; v. 34 n. 65 (2022); 1-222175-80420103-4111reponame:Motrivivência (Florianópolis)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/motrivivencia/article/view/86478/51814Cruz, Letícia Maria Cunha da Chaves , Aline Dessupoio Meireles, Juliana Fernandes FilgueirasNeves, Clara Mockedece Ferreira, Maria Elisa Caputo info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-06-05T18:31:02Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/86478Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/motrivivenciaPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/motrivivencia/oai||giovani.pires@ufsc.br2175-80420103-4111opendoar:2023-06-05T18:31:02Motrivivência (Florianópolis) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
