Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, titled "Recent Research on Biomechanics and Sports", provides a comprehensive review of the latest advancements in biomechanics and sports for high-performance athletes. Recent studies emphasize the importance of a balanced approach, combining strength, power, and endurance training across various sports and how these factors contribute to overall performance enhancement and injury prevention.
Additionally, new perspectives on the influence of factors such as nutrition and recovery on training efficacy can be explored. Personalized training strategies, taking into account individual variability in training response, will also be examined. Emerging technologies, such as wearables and data analytics, will be discussed as tools to maximize training outcomes. Collectively, this Special Issue offers a holistic view of current and emerging methods in biomechanics and sports, paving the way for future research and optimized practices for elite athletes and coaches.
Dr. Alejandro Sánchez-Pay
