Abstract
The study explores the impact of social media on physical education and athletic performance, examining both its benefits and potential drawbacks. Social media has emerged as a powerful tool for enhancing interactive communication between athletes and coaches, motivating participation in physical activities, and fostering online fitness communities. However, excessive use of these platforms may contribute to sedentary behavior, distraction, and performance-related pressure. Through a comprehensive review of academic literature and empirical data, this paper critically evaluates the dual role of social media in shaping athletic training, engagement, and overall well-being.
