Introduction. Improving the sports performance of an athlete it depends on his or hers internal factors and the external factors. An environmental change or a new challenge may have effects on the psyche of the athlete and can lead to changes in motivation and concentration. Objectives. The aim of this study is to analyze the effects on the psyche following a specific program of preparation, which involves major changes in the athlete’s routine. In this study we analyze athletes who follow a program of athletic training at altitude to increase lung capacity, and will test whether psychological experience changes in terms of attention and concentration, persistent motivation, and the correlation between the two. Material and methods. In this observational study took part two groups of athletes, 44 female judokas. Control group 1 with 22 athletes, and group 2 with 22 athletes who have undergone a specific training at altitude (1020 m, 677 mmHg) for three months in order to increase lung capacity. For collecting statistics on psyche regarding motivational persistence and concentration of attention, SPM questionnaire and ACC test were used. Results. Analysis of the results of the study showed only one significant difference between the two groups. Group II showed an acceptable and similar correlation between long term pursuing purposes (LTPP) and recurrence of unattained purposes (RUP), which was not found in group I. All other indicators showed no difference between the two groups of athletes. Conclusion. In terms of motivation, attention span and the correlation between the two, no mental changes were found in athletes who have undergone specific training at altitude for three months.
