Abstract
In December 2019, there was an Extraordinary Event (KLB) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19) in China. The virus is rapidly spreading around the world causing an unprecedented pandemic and getting into the government to impose a global quarantine, entering an unknown extreme. The consequences of quarantine / isolation organizations are: absence of organized training and competition, lack of communication between athletes and coaches, inability to move freely, lack of adequate sun exposure, unsuitable training conditions. Based on current science, we strongly recommend encouraging athletes to rebuild their mindset to understand isolation as an opportunity for development, appropriate coaching, educating and encouraging athletes to take appropriate precautions and hygiene to support and ensure a favorable isolation environment. well. The athlete^s residence should be equipped with cardio and endurance training equipment (portable bicycle or rowing ergometer). Some forms of body mass resistance-based training can promote aerobic adaptation. Sports skills training should be organized according to the athlete^s needs. Individual training has to do with performance on neuromuscular performance. Athletes should also be educated about nutrition (Vitamin D and protein) and hydration. Strategies should be developed to control body composition. Mental fatigue must be anticipated and controlled. Adequate methods of recovery must be provided. Daily monitoring should be done. It is an ideal situation to reassess personal life, understand the situation, which can be promoted in these difficult times that affect almost the entire world.
