THE FORWARD STEP IN A BOXER CANDIDATE FOR MASTER OF SPORTS: A BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS BY 3D MA TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

This study presents a detailed biomechanical analysis of the forward step in a boxer candidate for the title of Master of Sports, utilizing 3D motion analysis technology. The research aims to explore the kinematic and kinetic parameters involved in the execution of the forward step, a critical movement in boxing that directly impacts balance, power generation, and defensive positioning. Through the use of 3D motion capture systems, the study analyzes key variables such as joint angles, foot placement, center of mass displacement, and the force applied during the step. The data gathered provides insights into the technical efficiency and biomechanical advantages that differentiate elite boxers from novice athletes. These findings are essential for optimizing training programs and improving the overall performance of boxers at a highly competitive level. The study emphasizes the potential of 3D technology in enhancing the teaching of sports techniques and the precision of biomechanical feedback in combat sports.
