Abstract:Aims: The purpose of this study was to a kinematic comparison of the techniques of athletes and decathletes in 110 m hurdles of Inter university players.
Materials and Method: For the purpose of the study, eight Athletes (hurdle specialist) and eight Decathletes hurdler of different university, who was participated in 75th All India Inter University. The Kinematic parameters were determined by using a video kinematic analyzer.
Results: Some of the most important variable have been determined it was found that athletes are distinguished from decathletes by Shorter stride length over the hurdle, Shorter flight time over the hurdle, Lower C.G. in takeoff to landing, Shorter supporting time in 1st stride post hurdle, Shorter 1st stride post hurdle, Shorter flight time in 1st stride post hurdle.
Conclusion: The result of this study showed there was not statistically significant difference in all kinematic parameters between athletes and decathletes but there was a significant difference in most of the kinematics and Physical parameters.
