Objectives The purpose of this study is to present a sample of efficient movement performance by analyzing the difference in muscle activity for each muscle during the kick-up movement by walking with one leg of the horizontal bar. Methods For this purpose, 7 middle school male students (age: 15.0±0.5 years old, height: 159.6±4.2cm, weight: 52.5±3.09kg) with less than 5 years of playing experience were subjected to surface electromyography (sEMG) to determine the results of success and failure. Differences and differences with preliminary shaking motions were analyzed. Results The analysis results showed that first, there was no difference in the muscle activity of the deltoid muscle, the shoulder muscle, and the carpal flexor carpi, the wrist flexor, in the success or failure of the kick-up operation. Second, the biceps brachii and rectus abdominis acted on the success or failure of the kick-up, and upon success, the rectus abdominis muscle was high and the biceps brachii was low. Third, the intervention for muscle activity during the kick-up movement after preliminary shaking was shown in the order of the carpal flexor < deltoid < biceps brachii < rectus abdominis, and the involvement of the biceps brachii and rectus abdominis was relatively high. Conclusions In summary, success was shown according to the difference in muscle activity of each joint during the kick-up motion by walking with one leg of the iron bar, and its importance was confirmed. In future research related to this, it is necessary to examine the relationship with kinematic variables targeting many subjects, and studies to confirm success and failure factors should be conducted.
