“…These aspects are responsible for influencing the athlete's pace and can, at any time, force the athlete to make changes in the pace, which cannot be predicted before exercise. This type of uncertainty can result in the maintenance of a motor unit and metabolic reserve throughout the exercise [4,82,88]. The athlete cannot be sure of what can happen in the rest of the exercise period and (unconsciously) retains some type of reserve to remain prepared to respond to any potential physical challenges.…”

Over the years, there has been a growing interest in the study of issues related to the psychophysiological processes underlying sports performance. A relatively recent perspective is supported by the concept that the brain acts as a central regulator of performance during exercise. This phenomenon is called pacing and is based on the premise that prior knowledge about the activity plays a fundamental role for individuals to self-regulate their efforts throughout the exercise. However, knowledge regarding this topic remains scarce, and further clarification is needed. This chapter reports new perspectives in relation to the existing evidence regarding the role of the brain as a central regulator of performance, questioning the complex interdependencies and interrelations between fatigue and physical exercise in the light of a psychophysiological perspective. A broader understanding of the cognitive basis of the psychophysiological phenomenon during the exercise is needed, bringing together concepts such as pacing behavior, decision-making, self-regulation of effort, prior knowledge of the duration of the task, and perception of effort.
