Methods: Databases were used to select studies related to the effectiveness of Taekwondo training, and the inclusion criteria were as follows. Results: Thirty-seven studies were selected. We found statistically significant differences from the control group in weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist–hip ratio (WHR), body fat mass, body fat percentage, lean mass, and muscle mass. Also, the age group was statistically significant in control variables on weight, BMI, and body fat percentage. Conclusions: Taekwondo training had a positive effect on body composition, and these results suggest that Taekwondo training is an effective exercise method to lower obesity.Seunghui BaekJong-Beom ParkSang-Hwan ChoiJae-Don LeeSang-Seok NamMDPI AGarticleTaekwondometa-analysisbody compositionobesityMedicineRENInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, Vol 18, Iss 11550, p 11550 (2021)
