Exercise Biomechanics and Physiology

Dear colleague,

The purpose of this Special Issue is to show relevant works in sports science from the biomechanical and physiological perspective. Sports biomechanics can be defined as the science which explains human movements and how forces influence this movement. However, as we know, this definition is often more extended, for example in studying the interaction between the athlete, his or her equipment, and environment. Exercise physiology involves the functions and activities of organs, tissues, cells, chemical phenomena, etc. Both areas usually have the same objective in experimental studies: to improve performance and reduce injury risk. Therefore, although sometimes experimental studies focus their analyses in a specific methodology of one of these perspectives, they more often combine both sciences because their connection allows a better understanding of the research problem. We invite authors to submit papers with original results from research related to exercise biomechanics and physiology. Review manuscript and paper with contributions about methodologies and advances in the technology are also invited.
