This book focuses on the integration of biomechanical studies in
sports performance and their relationship with musculoskeletal
injuries. It presents a comprehensive analysis across eight sports:
soccer, volleyball, swimming, cycling, skiing, golf, athletics, and
hockey. The research addresses both general and specific injuries,
including hamstring muscle injuries, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)
damage, and pubic symphysis pain, with attention given to both male
and female athletes. The studies employ established biomechanical
tools, such as 2D and 3D motion analysis, force platforms, and
electromyography, providing a robust framework for understanding
injury mechanisms and performance optimization. This collection
aims to advance the knowledge of injury prevention and athletic
performance by combining rigorous biomechanical approaches with
practical applications for diverse sports disciplines.
