Abstract: Taekwondo and Pencak silat are two examples
of martial arts sports that are currently being developed.
Therefore, the purpose of this study was to measure and
determine the correlation between vertical jump perfor�mance and 60 meter sprints in Taekwondo and Pencak si�lat athletes. All participants were divided into two groups
based on their branches, namely the Taekwondo group
(TKW) and the Pencak silat group (PKS). All participants
are required to warm up statically and dynamically for
at least 15 minutes. After the warm-up session was over,
the TKW group started the first session for anthropometry
measurement, vertical jump, and sprint. The PKS group
was superior in jumping performance, 57.33 (± 7.73) cm
compared to the TKW group of 55.78 (± 4.30) cm. As for
the results of the 60 meter sprint, it shows that there were a
significant difference between the 60 meter sprint between
the TKW and PKS groups (p = 0.007), where the PKS group
(7.94 ± 0.15) seconds is faster than the TKW group (8, 48 ±
0.49) seconds. The results in this study indicate that there
were a correlation between vertical jump performance and
60 meter sprint performance, for Takewondo and Pencak
silat athletes.
