Abstract

Background

No study has elaborated the normative tables to classify judo athletes as to the dynamic and isometric chin-up judogi tests.

Purpose

To elaborate normative judogi chin-up tables to classify judo athletes.

Methods

138 male judo athletes from state, national, and international levels participated in the study. All tests were carried out during the competitive period. The tests can be performed by absolute values or relativized by body mass.

Results

Data were distributed as percentile, with absolute values ≤ 10% (very poor ≤ 10 s; ≤ 1 rep), 11 a 25% (poor 11–25 s; 2–6 reps), 26–75% (regular 26–55 s; 7–16 reps), 76–90% (good 56–62 s; 17–19 reps), and > 90% (excellent ≥ 63 s; ≥ 20 reps). The relativized values consist of the following classifications [body mass multiplied per seconds (s) or repetitions (reps)] ≤ 10% (very poor ≤ 1051 kg.s; ≤ 121 kg.rep), 11–25% (poor 1052–2041 kg.s; 122–474 kg.rep), 26–75% (regular 2042–3962 kg.s; 475–1190 kg.rep), 76–90% (good 3963–4008 kg.s; 1191–1463 kg.rep), and > 90% (excellent ≥ 4009 kg.s; ≥ 1464 kg.rep).

Conclusion

The normative table can be used as a reference to classify judo athletes as to specific used as a reference to classify judo athletes as to specific dynamic and isometric endurance strength holding the judogi, a specific field test which is low cost and can be implemented with the basic equipment.
