“…That relationship may suggest relatively high mechanical efficiency in tested contestants, according to the model describing relationships between mechanical work output and metabolism [ 49 ]. As was mentioned earlier, kickboxing belongs to a family of hitting martial arts similar to Muay Thai, karate and taekwondo, where upper and lower limbs are engaged in offensive actions [ 50 ]. Practitioners of all these sports use the same techniques of punches and kicks.…”

Background: Acid–base balance (ABB) is a major component of homeostasis, which is determined by the efficient functioning of many organs, including the lungs, kidneys, and liver, and the proper water and electrolyte exchange between these components. The efforts made during competitions by combat sports athletes such as kickboxers require a very good anaerobic capacity, which, as research has shown, can be improved by administering sodium bicarbonate. Combat sports are also characterized by an open task structure, which means that cognitive and executive functions must be maintained at an appropriate level during a fight. The aim of our study was to analyze the changes in ABB in capillary blood, measuring levels of H+, pCO2, pO2, HCO3−, BE and total molar CO2 concentration (TCO2), which were recorded 3 and 20 min after a three-round kickboxing bout, and the level of technical and tactical skills presented during the fight. Methods: The study involved 14 kickboxers with the highest skill level (champion level). Statistical comparison of mentioned variables recorded prior to and after a bout was done with the use of Friedman’s ANOVA. Results: 3 min after a bout, H+ and pO2 were higher by 41% and 11.9%, respectively, while pCO2, HCO3−, BE and TO2 were lower by 14.5%, 39.4%, 45.4% and 34.4%, respectively. Furthermore, 20 min after the bout all variables tended to normalization and they did not differ significantly compared to the baseline values. Scores in activeness of the attack significantly correlated (r = 0.64) with pre–post changes in TCO2. Conclusions: The disturbances in ABB and changes in blood oxygen and carbon dioxide saturation observed immediately after a bout indicate that anaerobic metabolism plays a large part in kickboxing fights. Anaerobic training should be included in strength and conditioning programs for kickboxers to prepare the athletes for the physiological requirements of sports combat.

“…Muaythai adalah olahraga pertempuran brutal dan atletis, dengan peserta memanfaatkan tinju, siku, lutut, dan kaki sebagai senjata yang dominan dengan lawan. Muaythai dipraktekkan secara luas di Thailand, dengan partisipasi internasional secara signifikan berkembang selama dekade terakhir (C.

Abstract: The research describes the study of body mass index on the physical condition of muaythai athletes in Malang Regency. Using descriptive quantitative correlational method. The research subjects were 9 athletes. Results: 1) BMI of boys and girls was classified as normal with an average of 66.67%. 2) The relationship of BMI to abdominal muscle strength for men (0.218) is less than (0.811) and girls (-0.987) less than (0.997). 3) The relationship of BMI to male (0.395) arm muscle strength is less than (0.811) and female (-0.277) less than (0.997). 4) The relationship between BMI and the explosive power of boys (0.836) was more than (0.811) and girls (0.999) were more than (0.997). The relationship of BMI to male speed (0.363) is less than (0.811) and girls (0.438) less than (0.997). 5) The relationship of BMI to male endurance (0.234) is less than (0.811) female (0.327) less than (0.997). Conclusion: There is only a relationship between BMI and explosive power, there is no relationship between BMI on abdominal muscle strength, arm muscle, speed and endurance. Abstrak: Penelitian menejelaskan studi tentang indeks massa tubuh terhadap kondisi fisik atlet muaythai Kabupaten Malang. Mengunakan deskriptif kuantitatif metode korelasional. Subjek penelitian 9 atlet. Hasil:1) IMT putra, putri tergolong normal rata-rata 66,67%. 2)Hubungan IMT terhadap kekuatan otot perut putra(0,218) kurang dari(0,811) dan putri(-0,987) kurang dari (0,997). 3)Hubungan IMT terhadap kekuatan otot lengan putra(0,395) kurang dari (0,811) dan putri(-0,277) kurang dari (0,997). 4)Hubungan IMT terhadap daya ledak putra(0,836) lebih dari (0,811) dan putri(0,999) lebih dari (0,997). Hubungan IMT terhadap kecepatan putra(0,363) kurang dari (0,811) dan putri(0,438) kurang dari (0,997). 5)Hubungan IMT terhadap daya tahan putra (0,234) kurang dari (0,811) putri(0,327) kurang dari (0,997). Simpulan: Hanya ada hubungan antara IMT terhadap daya ledak, tidak ada hubungan antara IMT terhadap kekuatan otot perut, otot lengan, kecepatan dan daya tahan.

“…The latter aspect is critical and creates a substantial obstacle because competitors frequently compete at their lightest feasible body mass to battle against opponents of lesser mass (26). Research analyzing sport-specific kinematics of kicks (10,27) has enhanced coaches ability to identify the most effective exercises to generate increased force output, improving performance, compared with traditional training methods (25).…”

“…The roundhouse kick can be an effective technique when actioned by a high hip angular velocity; Diniz et al (10) found that when comparing the roundhouse kick technique, used in other striking-based martial arts, with Muay Thai, the angular velocity of the hip is greater and can produce a higher impact, causing destructive damage to gain points or incapacitate an opponent. The Teep kick (front push kick) also has similar efficacy; being one of the most used techniques in Muay Thai for attacking and countering attacks from the opponent, showing benefits from increasing competitors kicking performance impact power (14,19,22).…”

Brown, L, Doyle, G, Bruce-Low, S, Domingos, S, Anthony, K, Rowan, F, and Galbraith, A. Postactivation potentiation for Muay Thai kicking performance. J Strength Cond Res 37(10): 2032–2037, 2023—The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of postactivation potentiation (PAP) on Muay Thai kicking performance based on 3 different rest intervals. Aiming to quantify and indicate timing protocols for conditioning coaches when training athletes using PAP. 17 male (25.3 ± 3.6 years old; 179.3 ± 2.3 cm; 78.0 ± 5.2 kg), experienced Muay Thai fighters completed a standardized warm-up, including a 10-minute cycle on the Wattbike at 60 watts and 30 body mass squats for a dynamic stretch. Subjects then completed a baseline test by striking a PowerKube using the roundhouse and Teep kick techniques. PAP exercise consisted of 4 squat repetitions to maximum effort, followed by a rest period of 2, 5, or 8 minutes. Subjects then struck the PowerKube again using the roundhouse and Teep kick techniques. Rest periods were presented in a randomized order on separate days, with 72 hours between conditions. The level of significance was set at α = 0.05. Significant increases in both roundhouse (χ2(3) = 38.51, p < 0.05) and Teep kick (χ2(3) = 26.33, p < 0.05) striking power were observed when compared with baseline. For the roundhouse kick, significant differences and large effect sizes were present between all conditions except baseline and 2-minute rest. For the Teep kick, significant differences and large effect sizes were present between baseline and 5-minute rest and baseline and 8-minute rest. This indicates that PAP with 5- or 8-minute rest increased roundhouse and Teep kick power. This research reports that a PAP stimulus from a 4RM squat exercise, followed by a 5- or 8-minute rest period, enhances kick power in trained Muay Thai fighters. This technique provides a readily available, time-efficient method to enhance performance that can be built into the warm-up procedure of athletes before training or competition.
