Abstract

The present study was carried out with the athletes of the taekwondo team of the taekwondo team of the Santo Tomas Tunja sectional university who represented it in the ASCUN 2022 games at the national level, the study is based on relating 3 variables that are very important for taekwondo practitioners (muscle mass in lower limbs, strength and speed). Objective: this study aimed to find the relationship between muscle mass, strength and speed of two kicks. Methodology: A correlational study was carried out taking as a population the athletes who represented the Santo Tomas University in ASCUN 2022 games in the national phase, some tests were applied to take and record body composition (weight, % fat, % muscle , bone mass, body mass index, metabolic rate, % body water, visceral fat, right lower limb muscle mass, left lower limb muscle mass), a 1RM test was applied in the Smith machine, a series of kicks was developed that They were analyzed with the kinovea software. Statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS program. Results: seven very high correlations were found (0.8<R<1); a moderate correlation (0.4<R<0.6) two inverse correlations, one very high and the other very low (-0.8<-r<-1) (0<RZ<0.2); Likewise, six results were found that are statistically significant (P> 0.05). We found that the inverse correlations pertain to the results of women. Conclusion: A minimum muscle mass is necessary, strength and muscle mass are directly proportional, the type of strength depends on the demands of each discipline. Discussion: The study shares ideas with other scientific articles, where it is evidenced that the subjects have a good level to be university athletes, comparing the results with some results of other elite athletes.
