It is well known that punching force is
highly important to boxers for winning and one of the key components of amateur boxing. Boxing needs also get
blocking position, after throwing a punch to not receive a punch.The aim of the
study was to determine the dominant internal-external shoulder muscles and
dominant extension-flexion leg muscles strength of the elite boxers at 60°
and 180° sec-1. In the study, 10 male elite
boxers 22.10 ± 1.37 years, height 174.60 ± 6.41 cm and 72.60 ± 10.74 kg
participated in the study. The isokinetic knee and shoulder strength tests were
performed with an isokinetic dynamometer (Cybex, Humac Norm 2004) in the
kinanthropometry laboratory of Selcuk University. Statistical analysis of the data was
performed using SPSS 22 package program. Descriptive data of the participants
were given as mean, minimum, maximum and standard deviation. it was determined that the peak dominant leg strength of
elite boxers were found for extension 224.900 nM (60 °/s) and  135.70 nM (180 °/s ). The peak dominant leg
strength of elite boxers found for flexion 120.50  nM and 
72.30  nM at 60 °/s and 180 °/s
respectively. Elite boxers’ leg strength was similar to literatür. As a result
of the study, it can be said that the internal muscle group of boxers produce more power than external
muscle group. It can be concluded that the boxers have better punching strength
than defense.
