Abstract
The aim of this paper was to determine relations between specific motor abilities and knowledge of
young karate fighters and the quality of kata performance and efficiency in a fight. For this purpose, the
research was done on the sample of eighty cadet karate fighters, aged 12-13. We applied eleven specific
motor ability tests on the respondents (five tests to assess specific abilities and 6 tests to assess specific
knowledge) and two variables to assess efficiency in karate (kata and fight). By factor analysis of the variables of specific motor ability and variables to assess efficiency in karate as a unique set of variables, we
obtained the two following significant factors: the factor responsible for technical and fight efficiency and
the factor responsible for the development of specific motor related abilities. By canonical correlation
analysis, we obtained only one significant linear combination between the set of variables to assess specific motor abilities and motor knowledge and criterion variables. The basis of canonical correlation is
made of general efficiency in fight and performing kata determined by specific motor knowledge – techniques, followed by, to a certain degree, specific agility.
Key words: specific karate motoricity, contest efficiency, kata, technique.
ing these actions (techniques) that influence directly the attack efficiency in karate.
Specific agility, i.e. mobility of the karateka in
various directions, is of high importance for successful fight performance in karate. Appropriate
mobility enables the karateka to avoid the opponent’s attacks and to assume optimal position for
efficient performance of karate techniques (Katić,
Blažević, Krstulović, & Mulić, 2005; Blažević,
Katić, & Popović, 2006).
Sforza et al. (2001, 2002) analyzed the quality,
i.e. technique efficiency on the basis of deviationvariability in the repeat technique performance
monitored by a photoelectronic instrument. The
method can be useful in learning, i.e. in acquiring
and subsequent mastering particular karate techniques. In young karateka, karate training influences the development of flexibility, muscle
strength and equilibrium (Violan, Small, Zetaru, &
Micheli, 1997).
Upon achievement of high quality performance
in particular karate techniques, the speed of reaction and the skill of predicting the opponent’s
attack are crucial for success in karate (Mori,
Ohtani, & Imanaka, 2002).
INTRODUCTION
Mastering motor skills (techniques) in karate
and their efficient use in fight require longstanding, strenuous training. The fight dynamics and
movement frequency are especially emphasized,
necessitating from a karateka a high level of motor
and functional abilities, speed and strength
(Ravier, Grappe, & Rouillon, 2003), and coordination (Weinberg, Seaoburne, & Jackson, 1981) in
particular. Although of a relatively short duration,
karate fights are characterized by maximal intensity, thus only the entities capable of enduring these
demanding conditions can hold out in elite karate
contests. Quite frequently, persistent and persevering training may prove inadequate, as specific predisposition is also needed to achieve top results.
In karate, only the karateka with potentially
above-average motor abilities, primarily explosive
strength, speed and coordination, can achieve top
results (Katić et al., 2013), it is especially pronounced in karate blows performed in combination
such as gyaku zuki-mawashi geri and kizame zukigyaku zuki (Katić, Blažević, Krstulović, & Mulić,
2005). It is just the speed and quality of perform-

Mastering karate techniques is a long-term
process that depends on both basic motor abilities
and specific motor abilities. With time, motor
skills in karate as well as general and specific
motor abilities are integrated into the morphological system (Bertini, Pujia, & Giampietro, 2003;
Giampietro, Pujia, & Bertini, 2003; Katić, 2003;
Katić, Pejčić, & Viskić-Štalec, 2004) through optimization of the size and relations of the karateka
somatotype components.
The tests of specific, i.e. situation motoricity of
the karateka are to a great extent saturated with the
level of motor skill acquisition, and estimate
specific speed (kick and blockade performance)
and specific agility. Accordingly, specific speed is
the ability of fast performance of as a rule multiple
blows and blockades (in a series), whereas specific
agility is the ability of using controlled explosive
strength and/or force for efficient karateka
mobility. These two specific abilities of the
karateka also integrate all other basic abilities,
explosive strength, speed and coordination in
particular. Explosive strength will thereby
influence performance of all tests of situation
motoricity. Besides explosive strength, the speed
of technique-blow performance and specific
agility will also be influenced by the ability of
movement
frequency
and
coordination,
respectively (Blažević, Katić, & Popović, 2006).
Literature reports indicate that integration of
specific and basic motoricity in terms of respective
integration of explosive strength, speed and coordination into general motor efficiency and/or
appropriate motor system optimal for achievement
of top results in a particular sport event occurs with
training process in all combat sports (Melhim,
2001; Katić, Blažević, Krstulović, & Mulić, 2005;
Marković, Mišigoj-Duraković, & Trninić, 2005;
Blažević, Katić, & Popović, 2006; Katić, Blažević,
& Zagorac, 2006; Krstulović, Žuvela, & Katić,
2006; Katić, Jukić, & Milić, 2012).
These results obtained in studies including elite
senior karateka define basic and specific motor
systems that are optimal for achievement of top
results in karate. The processes of selection and
training in karate tend to the formation of ideal
definitive conditions of basic and specific motoricity that lead to the achievement of top results.
Comparison of the results obtained on the impact
of specific motoricity on fighting efficiency in the
karateka aged 11-12, karateka aged 13-14 and sen-
ior karateka pointed to the following stages in the
development of the karateka contest efficiency
(Katić, Jukić, Glavan, Ivanišević & Gudelj, 2009;
Katić, Blažević, & Zagorac, 2010):
- the 11-12 age group representing first stage in
the development of the karateka contest efficiency,
preceded by attendance of the initial karate school.
In this stage, the specific frequency ability of the
gedan barai blockade is essential for successful
kate performance and contest efficiency. Gedan
barai blockade is a technique that is acquired first,
as the basis of defense actions that prevail n karate
fight, while at the same time facilitating acquisition of other karate techniques, hand blow gyaku
zuki in particular, which predominantly determines
contest efficiency in karateka aged 11-12;
- the 13-14 age group representing second stage
in the development of the karateka contest efficiency, preceded by attendance of the advanced
karate school. In this stage, the specific ability of
the speed of blockade and kick performance
(gedan barai-gyaku zuki) is crucial for successful
kate performance and contest efficiency.
Integration of defense and attack actions occurs in
under-sixteen karateka, which predominantly
determines their contest efficiency. Specific agility
in terms of sidewise mobility significantly influences kate performance but has no major effect on
contest efficiency. Concerning karate kicks, those
performed in combination, i.e. gyaku zukimawashi geri and kizame zuki-gyaku zuki, are
superior predictors of contest efficiency.
Accordingly, integration of different attack-kick
techniques into a unique attack action predominantly determines contest efficiency in under-sixteen karateka; and
- integration of basic and specific motoricity
occurs in junior karateka and senior karateka in
particular. The number of predictors in determination of contest efficiency, including both specific
motor abilities and specific motor skills, i.e. karate
techniques, increases. Successful performance is
to an even greater extent determined by the integration of defense and attack actions as well as by
the ability of performing a series of different kicks
(combinations). In addition, specific agility manifesting as karateka mobility in all directions has a
decisive role in determination of contest efficiency
in elite karate. The speed of blockade performance
is the best predictor of fighting efficiency, followed by the speed of movement in multiple direc-

tions and frequency of foot kicks. Accordingly, the
karateka fighting efficiency is predominantly
determined by the specific abilities of speed and
agility.
The aim of the paper is to determine relations
between specific motor abilities and knowledge of
young karate fighters to the quality of performing
kata and efficiency in fight, in addition to determining which specific motor abilities and which
specific motor knowledge contribute to efficiency
in karate kata and fight efficiency.
ured by the subject’s distance from the target,
defined by the extended arm performing jaku zuki.
On the sign given by the timekeeper, the subject
started performing the geden barai-gyaku zuki
combination from the fighting posture as fast as
possible. The combination had to be performed
five times, the last gyaku zuki blow against the
wall makiwara or vertically placed gym mattress
denoting the task completion. The task was repeated three times, and test result was measured in
tenths of second.
- Speed of the gedan barai blockade technique
performance. The task was to perform as many
blockades during 30 seconds from the initial fighting posture as possible, in three repeats; test result
was recorded as the sum of overall correctly performed blockades.
- Speed of the mawashi geri foot kick technique
performance; the task was to perform as many
mawashi geri kicks against the punch bag during
30 seconds from the initial fighting posture. The
kick level was determined according to the subject’s body height, whereby each subject was to
reach at least his own neck level. The respective
level to be reached was marked by a belt above
which the kick had to be performed. The task was
repeated three times, and the result was recorded
as the overall number of properly performed
mawashi geri kicks against the punch bag.
The assessment of specific motor knowledge –
techniques was determined on the basis of subjective evaluation by three judges calculating the first
main judgment component in 6 karate techniques.
The following techniques were evaluated individually: gyaku zuki, kizame zuki and mawashi geri,
and in combinations gyaku zuki-mawashi geri,
gyaku zuki-uraken and kizame zuki-gyaku zuki.
Technical efficiency – KATE was determined
on the basis of subjective evaluation by three
judges of two karate kate performance. In this
variable, result was determined as sum of average
scores for kate 1 and kate 2.
Fighting efficiency – RESULT was determined
on the basis of contest results achieved at national
championships of under-sixteen karateka. Based
on the results achieved, the judges classified the
karateka into three categories as follows: underaverage, average and above-average.
After measuring and organizing the data, we
applied statistic data processing using Statistica
ver. 11.0. program. We used factor analysis to
MATERIAL AND METHODS
The research has been done on the sample of
eighty young karate fighters aged 12-13 in Split.
On choosing tests for assessment of the situation
motor abilities, due care was taken to select the
tests that provide best estimate of the most important factors of fight performance, i.e. specific agility-mobility and specific speed, i.e. speed of technique performance (Blažević, Katić, & Popović,
2006):
- Sidesteps on taking guard with hands lifted
up; the test is used to estimate specific movement
speed. The task was to pass the four-meter distance
as fast as possible by side steps in both directions
six times. The test was repeated three times with
due time allowed for rest in-between, and the
result was measured in tenths of second.
- Speed of movement in a triangle; the test is
used to estimate specific movement speed. The
task was to move as fast as possible in fighting
guard along the sides of an equilateral triangle of 3
m in dimensions, marked on the floor. The subject
moved fast from one vertex along the side to
another vertex, around the medicine ball placed
there, then turning back sidewise towards the third
vertex, again around the medicine ball placed
there, to move sidewise back to the initial site.
Then he had to move back sidewise, sidewise forward and sidewise back to the start position. The
speed of moving along the triangle sides was
measured in tenths of second, and the task was
repeated three times.
- Speed of blockade performance and hand
blow as a combined technique; the task was to perform the gedan barai-gyaku zuki combination five
times consecutively at maximal speed. In order to
ensure identical test conditions to all study subjects, the tall and short ones alike, the distance of
the target to be hit by gyaku zuki blow was meas-

determine the factor of the unique (motor) domain
consisting of variables sets to assess specific motor
abilities, specific motor knowledge (the assessing
of performing the karate technique quality) and to
assess efficiency in karate (the performance of
karate kata and efficiency in a fight). The algorhythm consists of varimax rotation of the main
components of the intercorrelation variables
matrix.
To establish connection and/or the influence
between specific motor abilities and technical
knowledge of young karate fighters and their efficiency in performing karate kata and their efficiency in a fight, we applied classic canonical correlation analysis.
Therefore, by applying factor and canonical
correlation analysis, we will determine the ideal

of cadet karate fighters necessary to achieve top
results in karate.

agility and blockade frequency gedan barai. This
isolated factor explains for 54% of total variability, and functions as a general factor of motor efficiency in karate of cadets, dominantly integrating
technical efficiency with efficiency in karate,
whether in kata or a fight. The bases of this factor
are basic motor abilities of explosive power, psychomotor speed and agility. A significant projection to this factor is made by blockade frequency
variable gedan barai which is more saturated by
force than by speed since it blocks forceful blows
by leg into the lower part of the trunk directed by
an opponent.

RESULTS
Specific motor abilities in karate assessed by
situation-related tests and specific motor knowledge assessed by the performance quality of basic
karate technique are mutually highly determined
and must be observed on the whole. Therefore, we
applied factor analysis of variables to assess specific motor abilities and knowledge in addition to
variables to assess the efficiency in kata and karate
fights as a unique domain, shown in Table 1.
The results of canonical correlation analysis
between specific motor abilities variables and criterion variables are shown in Table 2.

The other isolated factor is defined by variables
to assess specific motor abilities such as specific
agility in the aspect of mobility and specific speed
in the aspect of the speed of performing basic
karate techniques such as the frequency of blows
by the leg (mawashi geri), the speed of performing
blockade combination and a blow by arm (blockblow) and the speed of performing blockade
(gedan barai). This factor integrates specific agility and speed into a unique motor ability, as a dominant characteristic of top karate fighters.
By canonical correlation analysis, we obtained
just one significant linear combination between set
of variables to assess specific motor abilities and
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS
By factor analysis (table 1) of variables of specific motorcity (specific motor abilities and specific motor knowledge, i.e. karate technique) and
variables to assess efficiency in karate as a unique
set of variables, two significant factors were
obtained, as follows:
factor responsible for technical and fight efficiency, and factor responsible for the development
of specific motor abilities.
The biggest projections on the first isolated factor have variables for assessing performance quality of all techniques as well as variables in kata and

Furthermore, the top karate fighters reach a complete integration of specific motor abilities and
basic motor abilities, primarily coordination,
explosive power and psychomotor speed.
That is why top results in karate can only be
achieved by the karateka with potentially aboveaverage motor abilities, primarily explosive
strength, speed and coordination, which are then
integrated in the general motor efficiency through
karate training. This integration is the basis for the
development of motor functioning in kinesiologic
education (Katić, 2003; Katić, Pejčić, & ViskićŠtalec, 2004) and sports (Melhim, 2001;
Marković, Mišigoj-Duraković, & Trninić, 2005;
Krstulović, Žuvela, & Katić, 2006; Katić, Blažević, & Zagorac, 2010; Katić, Jukić, & Milić,
2012).
Motor knowledge in karate, as well as general
specific motor abilities, are integrated into morphological system with time by optimising sizes
and relations of the components in somatotypes of
karate fighters.

Абстракт
Целта на трудот беше да се утврдат специфичните моторни способности и знаењето на
млади каратисти со квалитетна изведба на катите и успех во борбата. Со таа цел
истражувањето е реализирано на примерок од 80 каратисти - кадети на возраст од 12-13 години.
На испитанцте се применети 11 тестови за проценување на специфичната моторка (пет теста
за проценка на спицифичните способности и 6 теста за проценување на специфичното знаење) и
две варијабли за проценување на успехот во карете спортот (кати и борба). Со факторска анлиза
на варијаблите од специфичната моторика и варијабли за проценување на успехот во каратето
добиени се два значајни фактори и тоа: фактор одговорен за техника и борбена ефикасност и
фактор одговорен за развој на специфичните моторни способности. Со каноничка корелациона
анализа добиена е една значејна линерана комбинација меѓу двата ситема варијабли за прценка на
специфичните моторони способоности и моторни знаења и кретериумските варијабли.
Канноничкта корелација укажува дека генералната ефикасност во борба и изведувањето на
катите е детерминирана со специфичните моторни знаења-техниката и во одредена мерка и
специфичната агилност.
