A comparison of self-control and emotional condition mechanisms in different situations of the application of judo techniques

The idea of Jigoro Kano, the founder of judo, was for a man to improve through judo, a physical and mental training, thus contribute to our social community (Kanō & Lindsay, 1887). Judo as a physical exercise consists of an aim that contains physical culture and health, sport, self-defence, and mental development (Harrison, 1919). The technical form of judo was taken from the old jūjutsu schools that were taught by Kano (Callan & Bradić, 2018; Hoare, 2009), as well as where he practiced and studied (Tenjin Shin’yō-ryū-jūjutsu, Kito- ryū-jūjutsu), and many others. By establishing Kodokan judo, Kano focused his own experience and knowledge on the development of a person. The suffix „jutsu” denotes the purpose of application with the aim of practice, specifically directed at defence and overcoming of an enemy and his destruction. The suffix „dō” marks the goal of training towards perfection of a man in his intellectual and moral potential (Brousse & Matsumoto, 1999; Callan, 2018). To achieve the stated goals, it is necessary to develop a high level of mechanistic control that is in correlation between the physical exercises and different mental states (Suino, 2007). Therefore, the physical and the mental exercise in judo is in a constant state of mutual dependence.
