Conclusion: The measurement method of athlete's burnout experienced three development periods.ABQ questionnaire is recognized as one of the most suitable self-report measurement tools to evaluate athlete burnout. There are group differences in athlete's burnout, and the factors that affect athlete's burnout are various. There is a lack of strict experimental control research on the mechanism of sports burnout. The main ways to control the burnout behavior of athletes are: shaping the tough psychology of athletes, changing the training methods, changing the rest methods, making personalized training plans and objectives, strengthening the guidance of athletes' coping styles, and reasonably supplementing nutrition.
