Karate is a competitive martial art that requires optimal physical conditioning to support the effective execution of techniques, tactical performance, and competitive success. Differences in training systems may influence the physical fitness profiles of athletes. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze and compare the physical condition levels of karate athletes from the Central Java Student Sports Education and Training Center (PPLOP) and the Superior Dojo of Semarang Regency in 2026. This study employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive-comparative design. The population consisted of 30 karate athletes, including 15 athletes from Central Java PPLOP and 15 athletes from Superior Dojo. Total sampling was applied. Physical condition was assessed using standardized tests, including the sit-and-reach test, sit-up test, push-up test, 20-meter sprint, vertical jump, shuttle run, 300-meter run, and beep test. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Independent Samples t-test. The results revealed that PPLOP athletes demonstrated superior performance in most physical fitness components. Significant differences were found in sit-ups (85.13 vs. 61.47), 20-meter run (3.33 s vs. 4.04 s), vertical jump (53.33 cm vs. 39.00 cm), shuttle run (6.06 s vs. 11.11 s), 300-meter run (48.40 s vs. 58.30 s), and beep test (49.02 vs. 38.54), with significance values below 0.05. No significant differences were identified in flexibility and push-up performance. In conclusion, Central Java PPLOP karate athletes possess significantly better physical condition profiles than Superior Dojo athletes in several key biomotor components. These findings indicate that a structured and systematic athlete development system contributes positively to the enhancement of physical performance among youth karate athletes.
