Master STAPS: entraînement et optimisation de la performance sportive – Préparation du sportif: aspects physiques, mentaux et ré-atlhétisation (M2) at Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1

The PPMR pathway aims for immediate professional integration. Its specificity lies in offering training across three complementary skill areas: physical preparation, mental preparation, and re-athletisation. This reflects professional reality: most organisations cannot afford a specialist in each area and need highly skilled professionals capable of managing multiple aspects of athlete preparation.
