Some people think that physical strength is important for success in sport, while other people think that mental strength is more important. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

Many people believed that physical capacity of the sportsman is the most important factor to ascertain the result in any sports but

on the contrary

, it is said by some people that the mental

strength

plays a most vital role to direct the success.

Hence

, to have a better understanding, we will discuss both views in

this

essay. Physical

strength

is something which has an important part in any

game

of sports. Though, it is usually considered by people that no sportsman can compete lacking in

this

section.

Furthermore

, many games of sports are absolutely based on physical potency and none of the mental skills is required in

such

games.

For example

- Weight lifting is absolutely dependent on the physical capacity and we see that only huge powerlifter can compete in

this

sport.

Therefore

, it has a valid point that physical

strength

has to be required if anyone wants to take part in mass level sports. While others think that mental

strength

is something which can dilute the factor of physical capacity which

consequently

may get positive results in any

game

of sports.

Moreover

, even if anyone is not that much active to participate in a

game

but sharp mindset and skill can help to overtake the former factor.

For instance

- chess is a

game

which is completely focused on mental skills and there are none of the physical abilities required in that sport. So, mental

strength

is very much needed in any sports. To conclude, in my opinion, that, as both the factors have their own merits but I think, mental abilities are very crucial for any sports to compete in as you can rely on mental skills to participate in any

game

but it cannot be overturned when it comes to the physical

strength

.
