Military or offices. Therefore, the research problem lies in the study of mental health and its relationship to the physical performance of police academy The study aimed to: 1- Identify the mental health values of the research sample. 2- Knowing the values of activity and physical performance of the research sample. 3- Identify the relationship between mental health and physical performance in the research sample. The researchers assumed the existence of a significant correlation between mental health and physical performance in the research sample. The researchers used the descriptive approach to suit the nature of the problem and the objectives of the research. The research sample was chosen randomly, represented by students of the Police Academy in Al-Muthanna Governorate, whose number is (50) students out of 250 students, so their percentage from the community = (20%).
