From biomechanics to learning: Continuum for the theory of physical and sports education

Abstract

The structures of the human body allow biomechanical movements in a series of kinetic sequences. The study of movement is often characterized by the excessive use of new technologies that also invade dynamics with deterministic hypotheses that are only of computer engineering and only for diagnostic aspects of bioinformatics. Biomechanics is therefore often reduced to the expansion of statics and kinematics without any consideration of dynamics in the full sense of the meaning. The dynamic is the basis on which all the laws of movement are implemented, attributing a cause that includes the reaction to the stresses integrated by the decision choices of each individual person. Integration is characterized by the quality of decisions that characterize the difference between motor learning. Decisions are generated by the learning teaching processes to which every human being in developmental age is subjected. It is clear that biomechanical acquisitions can make an important contribution in the evaluation and management of problems affecting human movement, but, in an integrated way, they need other knowledge and interventions to be truly effective in their application.

Pre-workout muscle vascularization and its effects on localized fat areas

“…From the analysis of the data obtained from the frequent skin tests and from the positive response of the t-test we were able to confirm the objective from which we started at the beginning of this study. That is to demonstrate how a right training method that can combine more strategies to promote blood flow and weight loss in areas where it is more difficult to lose weight than others, is more efficient than common training methods (Di Domenico et al, 2020). The outcome of this study therefore allows us to have an extra tool for combating stubborn fat both in terms of efficiency and in terms of time.…”

Applied biomechanics within the Kinesiology discipline in higher education

“…Despite the reliance on advanced technologies to study movement, there remains a tendency to overly focus on static and kinetic aspects, often neglecting the crucial dynamic component of movement. This dynamic aspect adds a holistic perspective by considering integrated stresses and individual decisionmaking processes that influence each person's movement, thus emphasizing the need for a balanced approach in biomechanical research [27].…”

Didactic problem: Teaching and methods in volleyball

“…As part of teaching of motor skills in volleyball, when we talk about method we generally refer to a series of intentional and organized actions that are implemented to achieve the set objectives, through the choice and use of means and contents that can favour motor learning (D'Isanto et al, 2017); as it happens in other sports disciplines, such as basketball (D'Elia et al, 2021a), football, tennis, and also in adapted sports such as tennis (D'Elia et al, 2021b), basketball and volleyball. Motor learning is a psychological and technical procedure (D'Elia et al, 2020b;Di Domenico, 2020), including the interaction between the behaviour of the teacher and the behaviour of the student; the first suitably adapted to the contextual situation tends to positively modify the second. The teaching of movement presents particularly problematic aspects, as the teacher, through a predominantly verbal language must, involving the cognitive and affective aspects of teaching-learning, obtain a response from the student, expressed mainly through language motor and body.…”
