Biomechanical Assessment and Determinants of Punching in Boxers 0955658 Biomechanical assessment and determinants of punching in boxers Seth Lenetsky PhD A thesis submitted to Auckland University of Technology in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) 2018 School of Sport and Recreation I 0955658 Abstract Punching is a fundamental human movement that is the defining action of many combat sports, most of all boxing where it is the primary method of attack. This thesis investigated the biomechanics and determinants of punching to answer the question, “What defines effective punching in boxing?” The first chapter of the thesis expanded on these themes, as well as identifies current gaps in the literature relating to the analysis of punching in boxing. Chapter two was a narrative review of methods used to assess impact kinetics and the contributors to impact kinetics in combat sports. The third chapter was a narrative review on effective mass, an impact variable of interest in the literature. The chapter focused on defining the variable and the methods proposed to maximise effective mass. The review found that effective mass was the inertial contribution of a fighter to impact. Additionally, the review found that double peak muscle activation is currently the only process proposed in the literature to increase effective mass. There is a potential gap in the literature regarding continued force application by the lower body during impact. Chapter four, a qualitative study of experienced boxing coaches exploring their views on effective punching performance. The results of the study are in agreement with Chapter two in that the lower body’s contribution was key to producing an effective punch. Chapter five presents an original method to measure impact kinetics using practical, simple, affordable, and relevant equipment. Reliability test statistics determined that all measures had acceptable reliability (CV ≤ 4.6%). Validity was determined via linear regression of a spectrum of loads and coefficient of determination. All variables were found to have a good fit to the model (푟2 ≥ 0.92) except for rate of force development (푟2 ≥ 0.57). Chapter six, assessed the reliability of the method described in Chapter five on a cohort of experienced boxers and untrained participants tested intra and intersession. Reliability statistics were small (ICC < 0.67 and CV < 10%) to moderate (ICC < 0.67 or CV < 10%) and technical error of measurement was moderate (TEM = 0.60 – 1.19). Chapter seven was a mixed method analysis of ground reaction forces, electromyography, and high-speed video to define the phases of straight and hook punches. The definition of phases was a novel contribution to the punching literature, identifying three phases for straight punches (initiation, execution, and impact) and four for hook punches II 0955658 (wind-up, initiation, execution and impact). The chapter used qualitative and quantitative methods to discover the uniqueness of each punch type and the differences between lead and rear hand punches of the same punch type. Chapter eight, the final experimental study of the thesis, used the findings from throughout this research to identify the determinants of impact kinetics in straight and hook punches. Findings from the study further reinforce the uniqueness of each punch type as no individual variable determined impact kinetics across them. There were general commonalities, as the majority of determinants were found in the lower body (19 of the 28), confirming the findings of Chapter Two, and those related to the upper body indicated that relaxation of the musculature was key to optimising impact kinetics. Results relating to effective mass found that double peak muscle activation had no correlation, while the lower body had meaningful correlations. This finding confirms the theory introduced in Chapter Three regarding the lower body’s continued force application during impact, but conflicts with current theories relating to double peak muscle activation. The final chapter (nine) is a summary of findings, areas for future research, and practical applications. This PhD has contributed knowledge regarding the understanding of effective mass in punching, the role of ground reaction forces as a key to punching, the kinematic and kinetic events of punching in a phase model, and the determinants of impact kinetics in straight and hook punching.

    Comments Received Australian Institute of Sport ‘Recently, scientists at the Australian Institute of Sport quantified the reliability of the StrikeMate for measuring maximal punching power in athletes. Their findings help coaches and athletes interpret the results of testing using the StrikeMate. Their assessments showed that if an athlete’s punching power improves by more than 1.8% over time, they can be confident that their training has lead to positive change in performance, not simply random variation’ Clare Humberstone PhD BSc (Hons) Senior Sport Physiologist Australian Sports Commission http://www.ausport.gov.au/ Richard Vince (richardvince.com) 8th Dan Black Belt. ‘We purchased a 'StrikeMate' to use to draw people to our stand when we attend Martial/fighting Arts shows, tournaments, conventions etc. Whenever we have set up the 'StrikeMate' and encouraged a few people to start the ball rolling, we have been inundated with individuals eager to test their power on the device. So far (after approximately 100 weeks of regular use) it has shown itself to be reliable, accurate and durable. As you would expect, the goal of some Martial Artists has been to endeavour to break the machine. The device has, so far, shown no sign of yielding to this onslaught. The readings are clear and simple and the results seem consistent. It is a great piece of equipment; we also use it with our students at our Academy as a retention tool. Each student may attempt to increase their power each month if they so choose’. With respect Richard Vince Master Vince started his career in Martial Arts in 1979 at Ipswich Martial Arts Centre.

Inertial sensors are one technology being used for performance monitoring. Within combat sports, there is an emerging trend to use this type of technology; however, the use and selection of this technology for combat sports has not been reviewed. To address this gap, a systematic literature review for combat sport athlete performance analysis was conducted. A total of 36 records were included for review, demonstrating that inertial measurements were predominately used for measuring strike quality. The methodology for both selecting and implementing technology appeared ad-hoc, with no guidelines for appropriately analysing the results. This review summarises a framework of best practice for selecting and implementing inertial sensor technology for evaluating combat sport performance. It is envisaged that this review will act as a guide for future research into applying technology to combat sport. Keywords: combat sport; technology; inertial sensor; performance 1. Introduction In recent years, technological developments have resulted in the production of small, unobtrusive wearable inertial sensors.
