“…Similar to this study (Table 1), among Norwegian adolescents, the frequency of feeling neck and shoulder pain was higher in girls than in boys [25]. Numerous known, unknown, changeable, unchangeable, physical or psychological risk factors can lead to the musculoskeletal system symptoms [37,48]. In this context, it has been stated that repetitive movements might trigger the pain.…”

Study aim: The purpose of this study was to examine smartphone-using university students’ musculoskeletal system pain complaints, duration of smartphone and computer usage, participation in moderate-vigorous physical activities (MVPA), and prolonged sitting time.Material and methods: This study was conducted on Hitit University students (n = 387; 206 female, 181 male) in the province of Çorum. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF), the Physical Activity Assessment Questionnaire (PAAQ) (sports/exercise activities section), and a personal information form prepared by the researchers were used as data collection tools. Descriptive statistics and the t-test were used to determine differences between groups. The Pearson chi-square test was used to examine the relationship between categorical variables.Results: It was observed that half of the participants with musculoskeletal system pain complaints (54.5%) feel the pain in all four areas (neck, shoulder, upper and lower back). There was no statistically significant relationship between physical activity intensity and pain complaint (p > 0.05). The students with musculoskeletal pain complaints spend more time on the smartphone and computer than students who do not have pain complaints (p < 0.05). During electronic device usage, the students who are in the low-intensity physical activity category spend more time sitting down than students in the moderate/vigorous intensity physical activity category (p < 0.05).Conclusions: In consequence, information can be provided about the importance of reducing sitting time during smartphone use and increasing the duration of moderate/vigorous-intensity physical activity (PA) so awareness can be raised on the issue among university students.

“…In connection with the research indicating a possibility of the existence of differences with respect to the feeling of efficiency depending on gender [16], this factor will have to be included in further research on the determinants of the mechanism of velocity-precision in martial arts. This study is part of long-term interdisciplinary research [17][18][19]. The possibility of research concentration on widely understood optimization of man's functioning makes a vital common plane connecting all these differentiated fields of competence (sport science, biomechanics, health psychology).…”

Background:The aim of the research was to obtain knowledge concerning the impact of selected external determinants (kick target) and internal determinants (sex) on the movement kinematics during the performance of a front kick by taekwon-do practitioners. Material and methods:The analysis was performed on 8 men (18.3 ±1.7 years old) and 6 women (19.8 ±3.8 years old) practising taekwon-do. During research they performed front kicks into the air, at a table tennis ball hanging on a line and a training target (shield). A laboratory was used for analysis of the movement. Results:The mean maximum velocity of a kick into the air was registered (10.78 ±1.32 m/s for men and 8.51 ±1.50 m/s for women), at the target (9.98 ±1.40 m/s for men; 8.28 ±1.59 m/s for women) and at a ball (9.63 ±0.94 m/s for men; 7.73 ±2.01 m/s for women). Conclusions:The change of external conditions in the three examined cases has an impact on the front kick kinematics. Significant differences between the maximum movement velocities during the kicks performed in the case of women and men were found.

“…The results presented here may also provide some initial, basic data for further comparisons in a similar research. They can also indicate the need for interdisciplinary exploration and research, which includes the area of therapeutic and rehabilitation activities inspired by martial arts [19][20][21][22][23].…”

Purpose:Biomechanical analysis of martial art techniques are objective and quantitative method, which may be useful in training practice for the purpose of improving these techniques as well as monitoring and enhancing athletes performance. The aim of this study was to assess selected kinetic parameters and lower limb loading during karate front kick, using force platforms, for both kicking and support leg. Material:Karate athlete, second dan, black belt holder in Idokan style, participated in this case study. The subject performed front kick in the air (without a physical target), both for his right and left leg, while standing on the force platforms. For the purpose of kinetic data recording two force platforms were used in this study (Kistler force plate, type 9286AA, Kistler, Switzerland). Selected kinetic parameters for kicking and support leg as well as front kick execution time were analysed. Results:Results of our case study revealed higher values of the kinetic parameters for the right leg, comparing to the left leg. This results confirm athlete's declaration of being right leg dominant. Conclusions:Analysis of selected kinetic parameters may be useful in identifying lower leg laterization (leg dominance), as well as existing asymmetries between the dominant and non-dominant leg in karate and other martial art athletes.
