Journal Title: Polish Journal of Applied Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 4

Abstract

The aim of the research was to identify the factors which differentiate Olympic Taekwondo athletes in the junior and senior categories who win or do not win medals in the competitions in Poland. 127 Taekwondo athtletes took part in the research. They were divided into two research groups: the athletes who win medals and those who do not win medals in Olympic Taekwondo competitions in Poland. The results of the analysis showed that only one indicator of complex reaction time differentiated the athletes in the junior category who win and those who do not win medals in the competitions in Poland significantly. As for the senior category, any indicators of reaction time which significantly differentiate the athletes with and those without medals have not been noted.
