The present purpose was to evaluate changes in 10 elite judokas` mood state (5 men, 5 women) during the 7-wk. competitive period of the season. Quantitative monitoring of the training volume and body-weight monitoring were recorded, and an adapted Profile of Mood States was administered weekly, including competition days. Analysis showed that following a significant decrease in the specific training load volume, there were no significant changes in judokas` ratings on the Profile of Mood States; however, there was a decrease of 3 or 4% of the initial body weight during the precompetition weeks, which significantly affected mood state during competition, indicated by an increase in rated Tension and Vigor and a decrease in rated Fatigue.
