Data was collected through anonymous questionnaires from 67 athletes actively competing in combative sports over 18 years old and older. Competitive level of the athlete covers all levels including regional to national team. The result shows that the frequency modification of sexual habits before and during competitions at the period when the burden rises to a competitive level. Frequently mentioned changes in sexual activity before the competition, was reduced frequency of sexual activity or abstinence. In the research the athletes indicated that in a 47% they feel some changes during the sports performance connected to sexual activity and an 83% perceive changes in the psychological component of their performance. In the psychological component are changes in most cases positive, but in the opposite in physical component are changes more negative. The group of athletes which were part of the research exhibited an increasing appetite for sexual activity and numerous of sexual partners than the average population in Czech Republic. In light of the results it can be presumed that there is some influence of sexual activity or abstinence on combative sports athletes’ performance, even though some research shows the opposite opinion.
