Compare Selected Variables Launch Kinematic Techniques in Elite Fencers Iranian Man and Spanish

The purpose of this study was to compare selected kinematic variables between Iranian and Spanish elite fencers. 12 Iranian national and 13 Spanish national fencers were participated in this study. Vicon motion analysis system used to measure kinematic variables (with sampling frequency of 500Hz) and two force plates used to measure timing and COM parameters (with sampling frequency of 1000Hz). Timing, linear and angular variables are used for statistical analysis. The results shown Iranian fencers in comparison to Spanish fencers has a significantly lower value in acceleration phase time, displacement of COM in acceleration phase, linear velocity of COM in acceleration phase, lunge length, and all of angular variables except of elbow angle in the peak weapon velocity moment (P
