The aim of this research is to design a proposed experimental program to develop the skill performance of the "Bassai-Dai" kata for the Egyptian national team players of traditional karate using Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS), and to investigate its effect on the skill performance of the seventh kata, "Bassai-Dai."
The experimental method was used by applying a one-group pre-post measurement design, as it suits the nature of the research.
The application was conducted on female athletes participating in traditional karate within the Egyptian national team (women’s team), registered with the Egyptian Traditional Karate Federation for the 2023–2024 training season. These athletes had achieved first place in international competitions such as the World Cup, Egypt Cup, and national championships. The study sample consisted of 7 female players.
The inclusion criteria were as follows:
• The athlete must be registered with the Egyptian Karate Federation until 2024.
• The athlete must hold at least a 1st Dan black belt.
• The athlete must have participated in national or international championships within the last five years.
Main Findings:
- There were statistically significant differences between the pre- and post-measurements in physical and skill-related abilities, in favor of the post-measurements, for kata players.
- Statistically significant differences were also found between the pre- and post-measurements in the performance of the kata, in favor of the post-measurements, for the same group of players
- Noticeable improvement rates were observed in physical fitness, skill-related abilities, and kata performance .
