KINEMATIC ANALYSIS OF THE WALKING CYCLE AMONG PRIMARY STAGE STUDENTS (9-12) YEARS

A COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN PARCITIONERS AND NON- PARCITIONERS OF PHYSICAL AND ATHLETIC ACTIVITY.

Abstract

This study aimed to identify the differences in some kinematic variables of the walking cycle of practisers and non-practisers of physical and athletic activity so as to determine the effect of this activity on some of the kinematic variables of the cycle walking-type manner. The specimen, which was chosen deliberately, consisted of 28 boys aged 9 - 12 years, the researchers used a descriptive approach and conducted a 10-meter test for normal walking using a camcorder and an analysis program called kinovea. The findings showed significant statistic differences in some kinematic variables between practisers and non-practisers of walking cycle
