“…This is probably due to the fact that during the training process the athletes present a slightly higher weight than their competition category, which is characteristic of this type of sports [12]. In this sense, several studies have been published about the body composition of athletes who practice taekwondo, concluding that at a general level international athletes have low levels of body fat [13][14][15], moderate skeletal muscle tissue, relative linearity of the body [13] and low body mass indexes [14,15]. Therefore, the above shows that in general, the best athletes are slimmer and that body structure has a positive influence on the level of performance in taekwondo [16].…”

The Taekwondo, as in other sports, athletes who have certain physical characteristics have an advantage over their opponents, in this sense, success in the practice of taekwondo requires certain types of physical, physiological, psychological and social capacities, so those athletes whose characteristics anthropometric are favorable to them, they may be benefited over others. This is why we set ourselves the objective of reviewing the information regarding the somatotype presented by athletes who practice taekwondo. A Systematic Review of the databases "PubMed", "SportDiscus", "Scopus", "ScienceDirect", "ProQuest", "Dialnet" and "SciELO" was carried out using in the search criteria Boolean operators and keywords of the following way: ("taekwondo" OR "karate" OR "martial arts" OR "judo" OR "mixed martial arts") AND ("somatotype" OR "body composition" OR "anthropometry"). A total of 15 works were obtained to carry out the analysis, the total sample of these studies adds up to 826 athletes, with a mean age of 20.4 ± 1.76 years. Varied results were found, depending on the competitive level, the country and the weight category, but there was a certain trend towards outstanding values of the mesomorphic component and of the ectomorphy in men, in contrast, for the female sex, although fewer studies were found to analyze, a trend towards a central somatotypic classification was evidenced. The study of body composition and somatotype is just one of the many factors to take into account when carrying out the analysis of an athlete or a group of athletes, however, this may be the starting point to be able to identify potential talents in this sport.

“…Probablemente, esto se deba a que durante el proceso de entrenamiento, los deportistas presentan un peso ligeramente superior al de su categoría de competición, lo que es característico de este tipo de deportes (12). En este sentido, se han publicado varios estudios acerca de la composición corporal de los deportistas que practican taekwondo y que han concluido que, en general, general los atletas de nivel internacional poseen bajas cantidades de grasa corporal (13)(14)(15), tejido musculo esquelético moderado, prevalencia de un tipo de cuerpo ectomórfico (13) y, por lo tanto, bajos índices de masa corporal (14,15).…”

Introducción: En el taekwondo, al igual que en muchos deportes, los deportistas con ciertas características físicas o fisiológicas tienen ventaja sobre sus adversarios; por lo anterior, aquellos deportistas que presenten algunas características antropométricas favorables tendrán un mejor rendimiento en la práctica del taekwondo. Objetivo: Revisar y caracterizar el somatotipo de los atletas que practican el taekwondo según categoría y sexo. Materiales y métodos: Revisión en la literatura utilizando criterios de búsqueda prestablecidos con operadores boleanos (“taekwondo” OR “karate” OR “martial arts” OR “judo” OR “mixed martial arts”) AND (“somatotype” OR “body composition” OR “anthropometry”). Se obtuvieron 15 artículos de tipo descriptivo-observacional que se incluyeron en el análisis. Resultados: La muestra total suma 826 atletas, con una edad media de 20,4 ± 1,76 años. Se evidenciaron valores somatotípicos variados según el nivel competitivo, el país y la categoría de peso; sin embargo, se observa cierta prevalencia del componente mesomórfico y ectomórfico en varones. En contraste, para el sexo femenino, aunque se encontraron menos trabajos para analizar, se evidenció una tendencia hacia una clasificación somatotípica central. Conclusión: El somatotipo es tan solo uno de los muchos factores a la hora analizar a un deportista o a un grupo de atletas, pero este puede ser el punto de partida para poder identificar posibles talentos en este deporte.
