The article gives an analytical overview of the most promising studies in athletic neurophysiology and psychophysiology for the period of 2010-2016 performed by the leading foreign university laboratories. Analysis of the study reports showed that the modern science has made notable progress in understanding the neurophysiological predictors of physical working capacity. Strenuous physical loads were found to be of positive effect on the neurotrophic processes in brain. The study identified a few specific aspects of the regional brain morphology and physiology for the regions in control of certain motor skills and conditional abilities, with neurophysiological characteristics of different athletic conditions being described. Issues of ideomotorics, movement control and proprioception are being considered by scientists. The study data gives the means to understand the mechanisms behind the athletic efficiency in different sport activities.

Keywords: physical working capacity, neurophysiology, proprioception, neuro-muscular system, movement control.
