Biomechanical and neuromuscular correlates of DaeDo output during successful dominant- and non-dominant-leg taekwondo side kicks: a repeated-measures study
Abstract Objective This study aimed to compare temporal, kinematic, kinetic, and support-side neuromuscular characteristics between dominant- and non-dominant-leg Taekwondo side kicks and to examine their associations with DaeDo output during successful scoring trials. Methods Twelve high-level male Taekwondo athletes, all right-leg dominant, performed side kicks with both legs. Three-dimensional kinematics, force-platform data, support-side surface electromyography (EMG), and DaeDo output were recorded simultaneou …
