With stage partitioned using long short-term moving averages regression slope PRR, continuous span derived. To experiences subject analysis conducted after an interview.RESULTS First, calculated short long-term PRR. Based average difference initial 20% CPR not calculated, it divided into beginning, rising, peak, decline periods. Second, development, beginning period 0 < PRR ≤ 7, time when record rises sharply. rising 7 60, virtuous cycle growth athlete. peak 60 74, maintained. 74 100, downward. Third, throughout physical intelligence their natural superiority, technical skills remains at its then enters downward trend. Competitional Intelligence aims become personalization as matures gradually while management capability game knowledge are immature. Psychological overcomes atrophy form confidence, experiencing burden confidence decreases. environmental context, early continues rise, peaks, trend.CONCLUSIONS Track implemented periods, formed intelligence, competitional context.
