“…For that reason, investigating the physiological and time structure of kickboxing styles may be of a great importance to better direct the physical conditioning in respect to the specificity of each style. However, the available information about kickboxing is derived mainly from the full contact style (11,15,16), whereas only one study investigated the light contact (20), and no study for point fighting combats was found by the current authors. In addition, to date, no studies have investigated the possible differences between styles concerning their physiological and physical aspects.…”

“…Kickboxing is a striking combat sport, which is spreading worldwide (15). The popularity of this sport encouraged many researchers to investigate its physiological and physical aspects (11,15,16,20). Understanding the physiological and physical loads of kickboxing competitions is paramount for coaches, and strength and conditioning professionals to prescribe their training programs (11,15).…”

“…The popularity of this sport encouraged many researchers to investigate its physiological and physical aspects (11,15,16,20). Understanding the physiological and physical loads of kickboxing competitions is paramount for coaches, and strength and conditioning professionals to prescribe their training programs (11,15). In this context, many studies have investigated the internal load of kickboxing by measuring heart rate (HR) and blood lactate ([La]) during simulated matches (1)(2)(3)6) and specific exercises (11,17,18) in an attempt to reproduce the competition demand (11,15,16,20).…”

This study investigated the physiological responses and time structure of kickboxing styles (full contact, light contact, and point fighting). Blood lactate [La] before and after combats, mean heart rate (HRmean), percentage of time spent in HR zones, and rating of perceived exertion were assessed. Time spent in high-intensity activities (HIAs), low-intensity activities (LIAs), and referee pauses (P) were recorded according to rounds (R) and kickboxing styles. [La] increased statistically significant after kickboxing combats (p , 0.001) and was higher after light contact compared with point fighting (p 5 0.029). HRmean did not differ between kickboxing specialties (p 5 0.200). However, more time was spent on HR zones 4 and 5 (Z4: 80-90% and Z5: 90-100% HRmax) than in other zones (all p , 0.001). Rating of perceived exertion scores were higher after light and full contact combats compared with point fighting (p 5 0.007 and 0.093, respectively). High-intensity activities, LIAs, and pauses did not statistically differ across rounds (p . 0.05). Moreover, HIA values were lower than LIA (all p , 0.001), and HIA and LIA were higher than pause for all rounds and styles (all p , 0.001). Full contact elicited higher HIA compared with point fighting (p 5 0.003, 0.001, and 0.002 for round 1, 2, and 3, respectively). Coaches and strength and conditioning professionals should emphasize anaerobic and muscle power development for all disciplines, especially for full and light contact and maximal aerobic power enhancement by targeting specific HR zones. Moreover, training regimen may include high-intensity interval training to mimic these sports' specificity using the effort-pause ratios according to different kickboxing sports.

“…Regular supervision of the athlete by his or her coach allows better identification of errors made by the athlete and helps improve technical skills [ 19 ]. It is possible to define rigorous training routines, but it is controlling the performance of the exercises that causes improved effects [ 20 ]. Kickboxing and other martial arts belong to contact sports, in which sparring plays an important role in the development of sport-specific skills.…”

Background: Kickboxing is a combat sport where athletes require constant supervision of a coach. The outbreak of the pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has led to a crisis in many sectors, including sport. Global efforts to limit the spread of the pathogen resulted in temporary lockdowns that limited sporting activity, thus deteriorating athletes’ physical fitness. Methods: The participants included 20 kickboxers competing at the international level. Their physical fitness was evaluated based on the test developed by the International Committee on the Standardization of Physical Fitness Test (ICSPFT) and their body build was assessed using Tanita BC601 body composition monitor and a body height meter. Differences between physical fitness before the COVID-19 outbreak and during the pandemic after re-opening sports facilities were evaluated. Results: Temporary closing of sports clubs has led to the increase in body mass of the participants by 2.65 kg on average and significantly deteriorated physical fitness. Conclusions: Temporary closing of sports clubs and restrictions on physical activity aimed at containing the spread of COVID-19 caused a significant reduction in physical fitness and increased body mass of the participants. This is likely to cause worse performance in the nearest competitions and have a negative impact on the athletes’ health status and immunity to diseases.

Background and Study Aim. Combat sports are among the most popular sports nowadays. Scientific support of combat sports is one of the urgent tasks of modern sports science. The purpose of this article is an analytical analysis of studies devoted to kickboxing. Material and methods. The bibliometric database Web of Science Core Collection (WoS) is analyzed. 194 articles that met the search criteria were selected for the primary analysis. We used bibliometric methods for processing the information received in the context of kickboxing. The VOSviewer 1.6.18 software was used: keyword analysis method and direct citation analysis with the construction of bibliometric maps, visualization of cluster density, and citation weights. Results. The constructed bibliometric maps made it possible to identify the leading thematic areas of research, the most popular areas of research in this area. They can be divided into sports and rehabilitation and recreational areas. In a sports context, these include the performance of technical and tactical elements of kickboxing, the study of the physiological characteristics of combat sports athletes; assessment of the main physical qualities and analysis of the adaptive potential of athletes; the study of biochemical and features of homeostasis, the state of the cardiorespiratory system; highlighting factors important for winning competitions. In the rehabilitation context, kickboxing is used to optimize the functional state, recover from injuries, and improve the quality of life of patients with chronic diseases. The use of the VOSviewer software, version 1.6.18, made it possible to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the problem, to determine the priority scientific directions in this area. In sports, this is an analysis of the technical and tactical indicators of athletes, the time spent on their implementation, the study of the metabolic characteristics of combat sports athletes, and the assessment of their physical qualities. Conclusions. The conducted bibliometric analysis of publications on the problem of kickboxing confirms the relevance of this area of sports science. There is a lack of research on a comprehensive study of success, monitoring the state of kickboxing athletes. These directions should be recognized as the most relevant in this area.
