Resumo: Mental stress represents a public health problem and exercise can boost mental health improvement. However, athletes are not immune to mental health challenges, including the high physical demand of elite athletes can negatively influence mental health and cause stress. This relationship of mental stress and elite athletes is still not well understood in reading and receives little attention from researchers. Thus, a systematic review study was carried out with the objective of analyzing the existence and impacts of mental stress in elite athletes. In this review, the following descriptors were used: Stress, Psychological; Athletes; Mental Health; Mental Health Associations. The databases used were PubMed, Web of Science and Scopus in English with articles published in the last five years. After qualitative selection and synthesis, seven studies were included. It was found that mental stress is common in athletes even compared to non-athletes. In the included studies there was a predominance of young women in varied sports, mainly summer sports such as volleyball and athletics. Mental stress seems to be related to training load. Studies with larger samples are needed in different sports to check mental stress in elite athletes with greater methodological rigor.

Sin embargo, los atletas no son inmunes a los desafíos de salud mental, incluida la alta demanda física de los atletas de élite que puede influir negativamente en la salud mental y causar estrés. Esta relación entre el estrés mental y los atletas de élite aún no se comprende bien en la lectura y recibe poca atención por parte de los investigadores. Así, se realizó un estudio de revisión sistemática con el objetivo de analizar la existencia e impactos del estrés mental en deportistas de élite. En esta revisión se utilizaron los siguientes descriptores: estrés, psicológico; Atletas; Salud mental; Asociaciones de salud mental. Las bases de datos utilizadas fueron PubMed, Web of Science y Scopus en inglés con artículos publicados en los últimos cinco años. Después de la selección y síntesis cualitativa, se incluyeron siete estudios. Se encontró que el estrés mental es común en los atletas incluso en comparación con los no atletas. En los estudios incluidos hubo un predominio de mujeres jóvenes en deportes variados, principalmente deportes de verano como voleibol y atletismo. El estrés mental parece estar relacionado con la carga de entrenamiento. Se necesitan estudios con muestras más amplias en diferentes deportes para comprobar el estrés mental en deportistas de élite con mayor rigor metodológico.O estresse mental representa um problema de saúde pública e prática de exercício podem impulsionar melhora a saúde mental.
