Taekwondo athletes throw a summer challenge to their enthusiasts and the staff of the training center!
The name of the challenge is side splits, and the most important thing is not the end result, but your own relative improvement during the summer. Initial measurements are taken until the transition to summer training times (beginning of June, more detailed information about summer training times in the next few days), and the development is checked after the summer when moving to autumn training times. The sooner you measure your initial level, the more time you have to improve your result. All developers will be rewarded with even more spectacular kicking techniques, but the best developer will also receive an extra prize.
In practice, we measure with a tape measure how far apart a person can place their heels in the initial measurement and after the summer in the final measurement. The achieved centimeter improvement is compared to the person's own height, and the person with the highest ratio is the winner of the challenge competition.
