ABOUT THIS SOFTWARE

The Karate Aerobic Test Software was created to help martial arts coaches monitor training programmes directed towards improving specific aerobic performance. This software applies the Karate Specific Aerobic Test, which is a valid and reliable test that can be used for assessing the aerobic fitness of karatekas [1, 2, 3]. The software uses audio and visual signals, and calculates all parameters from the test protocol, such as the number of exercises, cycle, total exercise and duration of the test. Additionally, you can input and save other parameters to characterise the athlete tested, such as age, gender, height and weight. Furthermore, you can manually input the heart rate (if you decide to use a heart rate monitor) of the athlete at the end of the test. All of those results can be saved in a text file (.txt) or pasted in Excel spreadsheets.

 

About the Karate Specific Aerobic Test (KSAT)

The KSAT test was developed by Nunan [4] for the aerobic assessment of competitive karate practitioners in a pilot study in 2006. The test consists of one of the most used sequences in karate: straight punch and roundhouse kick combinations on a heavy punch bag with rest periods between the sequences. The time to complete one set (A - leading straight punch, B - rear leg roundhouse kick, C - rear straight punch, D - leading roundhouse kick) is set at 7 seconds. The progression in intensity during the Karate Specific Aerobic Test was actually based on the 20m beep test, and the aim is to progressively induce a maximal physiological response by reducing the recovery periods between exercise bouts [4]. The test has an excellent absolute and relative reliabilities and it is suitable for the assessment of the aerobic fitness of karate practitioners [1].
