Applied Biomechanics: Sport Performance and Injury Prevention: Sport Performance and Injury Prevention

This Special Issue had as its main objective the compilation of biomechanical studies on sports performance and its relationship with musculoskeletal injuries. It is a collection of research on eight different sports (soccer volleyball swimming cycling skiing golf athletics and hockey) considering injuries in general and specific injuries such as hamstring muscle injury anterior cruciate ligament of the knee and pain of the pubic symphysis. Additionally it is noteworthy that most of the studies considered both men and women. Classical biomechanical tools have been used such as 2D and 3D motion analysis force platforms and electromyography.
