The main purpose of this research was to compare the biomechanical performances of Taekwondo back kick technique between lightweight and heavyweight players. The participants were five lightweights (age: 22.2±3.3 y, height: 171.0±2.5 cm, weight: 60.3±5.5 kg, practice time: 9.2±3.0 y) and five heavyweights (age: 21.8±1.3 y, height: 181.3±4.7 cm, weight: 78.0±10.4kg, practice time: 9.0±2.0 y). The Peak Performance 3D motion image analysis system and the F-scan sole dynamometer system were simultaneously used to collect the biomechanical data during the back kick. The comparisons were made using the students' t-test, and p <.05 was considered statistically significant. The results revealed that neither maximal velocity of the subjects' gravity nor lag of time (time to hit an object after the maximal velocity) differed significantly between lightweights and heavyweights. Movement time (time from onset of the attack to hit an object) was significantly shorter in lightweights than that in heavyweights, while action time (time from hitting an object to end of hit an object) in lightweights was remarkably longer than that in heavyweights. In conclusion, we suggested the initiative in attacking by the back kick for lightweight players; however, the best time to attack for the heavyweight players was after the competitor's attack.
