Summary

This study follows 300 team athletes (football, volleyball, ice hockey) aged 14–38 over two points in their training year, measuring body composition and psychological traits like eating behavior, perfectionism, and body image. The goal is to understand how seasonal changes in training and lifestyle affect physical and mental well-being, and to identify factors that lead to better or worse adaptations. Results may help develop personalized monitoring and support strategies for athletes.
