Recent Advances in Sports Biomechanics and Physiology

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue, "Recent Advances in Sports Biomechanics and Physiology", aims to highlight the importance of biomechanical and physiological analysis. This collection of papers highlights innovative research that enhances athletic performance, reduces injury risk, and optimizes training methodologies. One of the fundamental aspects of the training process is the implementation of certain movement structures in the situational conditions of the competition in order to promote easy adaptation of the organism to the mentioned challenges. Key topics include advanced motion analysis techniques, wearable technology, and biomechanical modeling, all of which provide deeper insights into athlete movements and performance metrics. Additionally, this Special Issue explores the physiological responses to various training regimens and different types of training stimuli and conditions, as well as the role of the subsequent muscle and cardiovascular adaptations. By integrating biomechanics and physiology, this Special Issue presents a holistic approach to understanding and improving athletic performance. Researchers, coaches, and sports professionals will find valuable information on the latest tools, methods, and applications designed to optimize sport performance. This Special Issue not only showcases current trends but also paves the way for future innovations in the dynamic field of sports biomechanics and physiology.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
