Analysis of Pencak Silat Techniques Using a Biomechanical Approach: Systematic Literature Review

Abstract

Study purpose. The purpose of this research is to look into the use of biomechanical analysis in pencak silat martial arts techniques. Materials and methods. The PRISMA standards for systematic reviews and meta-analyses were followed in this review investigation. The study must be published within the prior five years, from January 2019 to July 2023. In the search procedure, the following keywords are used: (1) pencak silat; (2) biomechanical analysis. The search engines SINTA (Science and Technology Index) and Scopus were employed. Results. This evaluation included the results of 10 articles. Six articles looked at combat tactics, two at students and the art of movement, nine articles looked at kick attacks, and one looked at attitudes. Four articles proposed time and speed. Six articles investigated pencak silat motion angles. Conclusions. Time, angle, direction, flexion, extension, rotation, adduction, visual focus, force, moment of inertia, rotational kinetic energy, and effort are all inferred factors for pencak silat techniques.

Mental Strengthening through Character Education Management in Pencak Silat Extracurricular Program

“…When many characters adhere to the student consistently, indirectly, the student will become a good character and strengthen his mental. This result confirmed (Moshinsky's 1959) theory that the student's character consists of four pillars and confirmed with (Burhanuddin et al, 2023;and Karo-karo et al, 2023) that strong character will strengthen mentally.…”

“…This research sharpens the theory: extracurricular management (Habibullah, 2017;Siti Khabibah, 2020) instilling student character (Uge et al, 2022;Permatasari, 2021); character education (Thomas Lickona, 2013;Aini & Fitria, 2021); character building in extracurricular activities (Riani & Agung P., 2018;Monika F.W. & Nur Hidayah 2020) and mental improvement in martial arts activities (Burhanuddin et al, 2023;Karo-karo et al, 2023).…”

“…Mental strengthening starts from the consistency of solid character in any place; this is by the four pillars of character development (Moshinsky, 1959), and when character is strong, it will strengthen students' mentality. This is by studies (Burhanuddin et al, 2023;Karo-karo et al, 2023). The character education program runs well using R. Terry's management theory, starting from planning, organizing, implementing and evaluating, and involving all stakeholders.…”

“…The game-based circuit training program could improve the mental health level of the individual (Burhanuddin et al, 2023) and involve physical and mental training to develop an individual's abilities, strengths, and weaknesses. It also focuses on cultivating noble character and self-reflection through rituals such as breathing exercises and fasting (Ediyono et al, 2023;Karo-karo et al, 2023) train the movement skills of elementary school students so that their movements are more directed and have a purpose as a martial arts tool, physical exercise, and discipline (Purwanto, 2018).…”
