The range of motion of some joints of the body and its relationship to some bio-kinematic variables in the pulling and extending backward phase in the overhead throw hold from the standing snatch in Romanian wrestling for youth

Abstract

The study aimed to identify the relationship between the range of motion of some joints of the body and its relationship to some biokinetic variables in the pull-back and backward extension phase. The research sample consisted of (6) six youth wrestlers, and the descriptive approach was used using the correlational method to achieve the research goal. The researchers used tests, measurements, and video recording of the skill of throwing the catch from above the chest from standing snatch, using two (2) cameras placed on either side of the wrestler at a distance of (4.5) meters, and the kinematic variables were obtained using the Kinovea motion analysis program. The research aims to identify the relationship between the range of motion of some joints of the body and some biokinetic variables in the extension phase, the moment the body leaves the ground in the overhead throw hold from a standing snatch in Romanian wrestling for youth.
