Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated a shift toward e-learning in physical education, transforming it from a temporary fix into a permanent, tech-driven staple. By utilizing mobile apps, wearables, and AI, sports training has become more accessible and personalized. These tools allow individuals in remote areas or with limited budgets to access elite coaching and tailored programs. While technologies like virtual reality and gamification enhance engagement, the future points toward a hybrid model. This approach combines digital convenience with essential in-person practice, effectively reducing cost and time barriers while improving athlete safety through data-driven feedback and video analysis.
