Chi-square, Data obtained included structure questionnaires and Physical Performance tests. Structure questionnaires contained psychological benefits tests, Physical Performance tests and physiology benefits tests. Multiple stepwise regression and Pearson Correlation were used to analyze the data. The results indicated that: Based on the current analysis among Psychological Benefits, and Physical Performance, “Bilateral training”, and “anticipatory benefits” are the most effective factors. And then according to Pearson correlation, physiological benefits, psychological benefits, and physical performance are positively correlated. In other words, the more physiological benefits is, the higher physical performance is. The more physical performance is the higher psychological benefits. Finial According to multiple stepwise regression analysis, among all aspects of Psychological Benefits, ’ achievements behavior’ has the most explanation on the predictability of Physical Performance. Among all aspects of Psychological Benefits and Physical Performance, ‘Bilateral training’ has the most explanation on the predictability of Physiological Benefits.
