Abstract

Considering taekwondo as a contact sport and its main feature based on spectacular techniques, it is highly important that martial arts practitioners develop flexibility as fundamental aspect due to the right execution of such variety of kicks, especially the ones that demand a wide range of the legs. The objective of this research was to develop the flexibility in beginner athletes through some exercise planning activities designed for improving the execution performance of advanced techniques in taekwondo. Also, verify the systematic work and focused to specific areas such as the coxofemoral joint in 12 athletes which proved the efficiency of the implementation and development of the exercise planning activities keeping in mind that the research had a quantitative method which allowed getting samples pretest and post-test then look into them by using the program SPSS which generated positive and accurate results. Similar scientific research articles have confirmed us that both exercises aimed directly to specific areas in the execution of advanced techniques and the right implementation of specific exercises have yielded us expected results in the accomplishment of our stated objective.
