description | The aim of this study was to investigate the
relationship between anthropometric, physiological and physical characteristics
with success of elite female taekwondo athletes. Forty subjects were selected
from elite female taekwondo athletes who won medals in regional and national
championships. Individual information forms were completed. The mean age,
height and body mass index of subjects were 17.84±3.67 years, 167.56±6.92 cm
and 19.12±2.45 kg/m2 respectively. All subjects were assessed for
height, weight, lengths, girths, body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio and
skin-fold thickness. Percentage of body fat was calculated from the sum of 3
site measurements of skin-fold thickness. Aerobic and anaerobic power were also
calculated using by cooper and Sargent vertical jump tests respectively and
then by placing into the standard recommended equations. Speed, agility,
muscular endurance and flexibility were assessed using by 36m sprint, 4×9m
shuttle run, push-ups and sit-and-reach tests respectively. From all of
anthropometric, physiological and physical characteristics, anaerobic and
aerobic power, body mass index and fat percentage, speed and agility were significantly
related to success and had more importance for taekwondo athletes. Thus, these
characteristics have a major effect on taekwondo specially, in championship
goals and should be considered in talent identification and training planning
of this sport. |
