Résumé:
Our present research entitled "Influence of stress on heart rate, blood
pressure and on the performance sports of basketball players" was
conducted in order to know the reactions of stress and its effects on heart
rate and blood pressure and show the relationship between these effects and
sports performance.
In the first part, we tried to define the concept of stress from
the theories proposed by researchers, then we presented the physiological
models of stress and we also discussed the stress in sport and its relation with
sports performance.
In the second part, we wanted to show the physiological effects of
stress on sports performance, by implementing the following
tests: the SCAT test, a shoot test, measuring heart rate and blood pressure.
The research was conducted on 60 senior male players of the west
regional division of Basketball; they were divided into three (03) groups: bit
stressed, moderately stressed and highly stressed in order to know
the group who will realize the best performance.
By analyzing the test results we confirmed that when stress
level is decreased the heart rate and blood pressure will be optimal for the
competition, in result the player will achieve good performances.
