| Summary: | Background: biomechanical analysis plays a fundamental role in enhancing athletic performance and preventing injuries, as it encompasses both qualitative and quantitative methods to evaluate techniques and tactics in taekwondo.
Objective: this article aims to investigate recent technological advancements applied to taekwondo from a biomechanical perspective, focusing on kinematic and kinetic aspects based on studies published in the last five years.
Methodology: A comprehensive review was conducted, analyzing biomechanical assessments that contribute to improving athletic performance through optimized techniques and tactics. Results: The findings highlight that variables such as arm swing speed and knee joint angle are crucial for effective jumping techniques. Moreover, the precise evaluation of strike force is essential for monitoring performance. Performance differences were also noted based on experience, weight category, and gender. Elite athletes demonstrate greater impact forces and faster execution times, while medalists show superior reaction times, hip mobility, and favorable anthropometric traits.
Conclusions: The integration of biomechanical technologies in training enhances technical efficacy, supports injury prevention, and enables individualized strategies. These insights provide a robust foundation for future research and practical applications in taekwondo performance optimization.
