Abstract
Recently,
the Frequency Speed of Kick Test (FSKT10s) and its intermittent
version (5 x 10s/10s intervals, FSKTmult) have been used to assess
physical fitness of taekwondo athletes, but no classificatory normative table
was found for these tests. Thus, the aim of the study was to present two
normative classificatory tables for both the FSKT10s and FSKTmult
for male and female taekwondo athletes. One hundred fifteen male taekwondo athletes (median [interquartile range] age: 20 [17;27] years; body
height: 175 [170;182] cm; body mass: 67 [60;78] kg;
experience time: 6 [3;10] years) and seventy female taekwondo athletes
(median [interquartile
range] age: 19 [(17;24]
years; body height:
162 [157;169] cm; body mass: 57 [50;64] kg;
experience time: 5 [3;9] years) volunteered to participate in the
study. Their skills ranged between 4th
gub
and 2nd dan. All the participants were evaluated
during their competitive period and were familiarized with this test. The
classificatory tables are presented in five scales, as follows: excellent (≥95th percentile); good (>75th
percentile up to 94th percentile); regular
(>25th percentile up to 74th percentile); poor (>6th percentile up to 24th
percentile); and very poor (≤5th
percentile). The classificatory tables for FSKT10s
and FSKTmult can help coaches and strength and conditioning
professionals to classify performance and monitor the physical fitness of
taekwondo athletes in different stages of training and during the competitive
season.

Kinesiology – International Journal of Fundamental and Applied Kinesiology (print ISSN 1331- 1441, online ISSN 1848-638X) publishes twice a year scientific papers and other written material from kinesiology (a scientific discipline which investigates art and science of human movement; in the meaning and scope close to the idiom “sport sciences”) and other adjacent human sciences focused on sport and exercise, primarily from anthropology (biological and cultural alike), medicine, sociology, psychology, natural sciences and mathematics applied to sport in its broadest sense, history, and others. Contributions of high scientific interest, including also results of theoretical analyses and their practical application in physical education, sport, physical recreation and kinesitherapy, are accepted for publication. The following sections define the scope of the journal: Sport and sports activities, Physical education, Recreation/leisure, Kinesiological anthropology, Training methods, Biology of sport and exercise, Sports medicine and physiology of sport, Biomechanics, History of sport and Book reviews with news.
