For this purpose, 33 male elite taekwondo athletes were selected and randomly divided into two groups: control (n = 16) and experiment (n = 14). In the pre-test (first competition), the cognitive components of competitive anxiety (cognitive anxiety, confidence and physical anxiety) and the physiological component of salivary cortisol were measured in both groups. The experimental group performed10 sessions of self-talk exercises and the control group had only physical exercises, and after the intervention, the post-test (second competition) was taken.

The aim of this study was to compare effectiveness of progressive muscle relaxation and mental imagery-based relaxation on psychophysiological responses of competitive anxiety (cortisol levels) and self-confidence in elite athletes. For this purpose, 36 of elite Wushu athletes selected and randomly divided into two experimental groups and one control group. In the pre-test (first competition) competitive anxiety and self-confidence as well as salivary cortisol were measured in all three groups. In experimental groups, relaxation techniques was trained for 4 weeks. Data with univariate analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) were analyzed. The results showed that progressive muscle relaxation was more effective than mental imagery-based relaxation in decreasing saliva cortisol and somatic anxiety. Also, mental imagery-based relaxation was more effective on the cognitive anxiety rather than progressive muscle relaxation. In addition, self-confidence was increased after mental imagery-based relaxation. In general, it could be concluded that different types of relaxation training was an effective strategy to reduce psychophysiological responses of competitive anxiety and improve self-confidence.
