Effectiveness of Aquatic Training in Developing Some Physical Abilities and Poomsae Performance Level for Young Taekwondo Athletes
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research aims to determine the effectiveness of aquatic training in developing certain physical abilities and improving poomsae performance levels among young taekwondo players. The researcher employed an experimental design with two equivalent groups (experimental and control) to verify the impact of the training program. The study sample consisted of 22 young taekwondo players. The most significant finding was a statistically significant superiority of the experimental group in developing the selected physical abilities and poomsae performance levels compared to the control group, thus confirming the effectiveness of aquatic training. Based on these results, the researcher recommends integrating aquatic training into the training plans of young taekwondo players.
