Sažetak
Apart from the scored techniques, a karate fight also consists of a number of technically-tactical activities, such as body movement (tai no ido) and the performed but non-scored techniques. These indicators, from the point of anthropological analysis, define the physiological load of competitors, and from the point of structural analysis, technical and tactical efficiency of the fighters. Therefore, the activity of the fighters, which consists of a number of the performed techniques, inevitably influences the definition of model characteristics of situational efficiency in a fight. To avoid the impression that the arm techniques are dominant in relation to the total score efficiency in a fight, it is necessary to observe all the performed techniques through the score system ratio. Such analysis shows, on the one hand, the dominance of leg technique in relation to score potential, and on the other, a weaker frequency, i.e. usage in the fight due to biometrically more complicated demands in relation to arm punches. Therefore, the object of this research is indication of characteristics of karate fight from the aspect of successfully and unsuccessfully performed arm and leg techniques ratio in order to determine their score importance and influence on the total situational efficiency in a karate fight.
