Syftet med studien var att utöka förståelsen för coachers roll i graden av faktorer som kan relateras till överträning hos svenska CrossFit-utövare. Urvalet bestod av 42 CrossFit-utövare (n=42), dessa bestod av 30 kvinnor (72%), 11 (26%) män och en som inte ville definiera kön (2%). Alla deltagare var från Sverige. Deltagarna var 33 (±8.8) år gamla och tränade CrossFit regelbundet i genomsnitt 5,9 timmar/veckan (±3.4). En enkät bestående av The Coach-athlete Relationship Questionnaire, Motives for Physical Activity Measurement-Revised, The Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire Revised Version, The multi-component Training Distress Scale, The Perceived Stress Scale- 4 item samt ett Feedback Questionnaire skickades ut till 120 aktiva CrossFit-utövare. Signifikansnivån i studien var alfa=0.05. Resultaten visade ett signifikant positivt samband (p<0.05, r=0.347) mellan den upplevda coach-atlet relationens kvalité och CrossFit-utövares viljestyrka, signifikant positivt samband (p<0.05, r=0.349) mellan den upplevda coach-atlet relationens kvalité och positiv feedback samt ett signifikant negativt samband mellan motivet ”Hälsa” för fysisk aktivitet och sömnsvårigheter (p<0.05, r=-0.323). Studien kunde inte säkerställa en konklusion av det sistnämnda resultatet, däremot hade den upplevda coach-atlet relationens kvalité ett samband med en specifik faktor relaterad till överträning bland svenska CrossFit-utövare, närmare bestämt deras viljestyrka. Studies resultat visar även att typen av kommunikation som CrossFit-utövaren upplever att hens respektive coach använder har ett samband med den upplevda coach-atlet relationens kvalité. Framtida forskning bör undersöka området vidare för att utöka förståelsen för samspelet mellan coacher och CrossFit-utövare. / The aim of this study was to expand the understanding of the role of coaches in the degree of factors that can be related to overtraining among Swedish CrossFit-athletes. The participants consisted of 42 CrossFit-athletes (n=42), these consisted of 30 women (72 %), 11 (26 %) men and one who did not want to define gender (2 %). All participants were from Sweden. The participants were 33 (± 8.8) years old and trained CrossFit regularly an average of 5.9 hours / week (± 3.4). A questionnaire consisting of The Coach-Athlete Relationship Questionnaire, Motives for Physical Activity Measurement-Revised, The Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire Revised Version, The Multi-component Training Distress Scale, The Perceived Stress Scale- 4 Item, and a Feedback Questionnaire was sent to 120 active CrossFit-athletes. The significance level of the studie was alpha=0.05. The results showed a significant positive correlation (p<.05, r = .347) between the quality of the coach-athlete relationship and the vigour of CrossFit-athletes, significant positive correlation (p<.05, r = .349) between the quality of the coach-athlete relationship and positive feedback as well as a significant negative correlation between the motive "Health" for physical activity and sleep difficulties (p<.05, r =-.323). A sure conclusion cannot be deduced from the latter result, but the quality of the coach-athlete relationship seems to be related to one certain specific factor related to overtraining among Swedish CrossFit-athletes, more specifically their vigour. The studie’s results also show that the type of communication that the CrossFit-athlete experiences their coach is using, could be related to the coach-athlete relationship quality. Future research should explore the subject to expand the understanding of the relationship between coaches and CrossFit-athletes.
