Abstract

This article describes the case study of a young footballer from the juvenile category who started training after a six months recovery due to different types of injuries he suffered within a year. The aim of this study is to show, during the different stages of a psychological training, the process of an injury recovery and the return to competition, the variability in the perception of pain and fatigue in connection with the state of mind. POMS was applied and the variables of pain, fatigue and satisfaction were estimated through the scales of subjective assessment obtaining as a result the highest pain threshold right at the start of the return to competition.
