For this, 36 swimmers invited to the National swimming team were selected using available sampling and divided into control and experimental groups. This research was semi-experimental in pre-test post-test design in ego depletion and non-Ego-depletion conditions. First, a baseline of routine exercises (maximum number of sit-ups in 60s) and reaction time was recorded. After 3 days, Ego-depletion condition was created using Stroop Effect Test. After that, reaction time and maximum number of sit ups in 60 seconds were measured. After adjusting the pre-test scores, the results of analyses of covariate showed the negative significant effect of ego depletion on reaction time and routine exercises (P<0.05). Therefore, these results supported the strength   Self-control model. According to this model, the resources of self-control act as body resources during performance, which body resources was decreased for next task in result of consuming some of that.
