Effects of a six-week combined tire-squat and explosive-kicking programme on roundhouse-kick performance in highly trained male Muay Thai athletes: a parallel-group controlled trial (2026) · Frontiers in Sports and Active Living · doi
The study faced challenges in designing a training programme that reflects the mechanical and temporal characteristics of the target movement. The study had to ensure that the training programme was specific to the needs of highly trained male Muay Thai athletes. The study faced challenges in measuring the effects of the training programme on roundhouse-kick performance, including the development of a reliable and valid kicking-accuracy device.

Development of a Speed, Agility, and Quickness Training Program to Improve Kicking Skills in Youth Novice Taekwondo Athletes (2026) · Interdisciplinary Academic and Research Journal · doi
Application of the research 1. Integration of SAQ in Taekwondo Clubs: Coaches in youth Taekwondo clubs should integrate Speed, Agility, and Quickness (SAQ) training 2–3 times per week into regular practice sessions. The program has been proven to enhance kicking skills across all five techniques (Front, Side, Push, Hook, Downward kick). 2. Skill-Specific Emphasis: For Push kick, coaches should incorporate progressive overload strategies to avoid plateaus in performance. For Hook kick, situational drills, rhythm- based exercises, and core–hip stability training should be emphasized, as these skills show improvement mainly in later phases of training. For Downward kick, unilateral and lower-limb strength training should be prioritized to maximize continuous improvement. Citation: Zhao, Y., Siriphan, C., & Wattanapayungkul, Y. (2026).

Injury Prevention and Physical Literacy: Since SAQ training improves coordination, core stability, and reaction time, it can also help reduce injury risk and promote broader physical literacy, making it useful beyond competition-focused training.
