Abstract
Humanism is one of the most complex and influential historical phenomena in the history of thought. However, there is a theoretical limitation in the formulation of a unique concept manifested in two tendencies. In the first one, the term humanism lacks theoretical referents supporting its definitions. In the second one, although it assumes it, defines humanism from different approaches. When analyzing the process of humanist training of physical culture professionals, theoretical differences were detected as well as the non-existence of a wide consensus to make generalizations about the definition of humanism and humanistic formation, its duties and tasks. e result of the analysis and the importance of knowing the essence of the object studied evidenced the need to revise the bibliography published related to the topic investigated. e idea was to clarify and argue the problem and, in addition, propose the design of a model, as a means and method, to represent the complex phenomena of the formative process from a theoretical coherently organized construction, based on valid theoretical references, that expresses its pedagogical nature in the transformation of the reality through a strategy to define the model.
