BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS OF MOVEMENT IN HIGH IMPACT SPORTS AND ITS IMPLICATIONS FOR INJURY PREVENTION
Abstract
Sports mechanics is a detailed evaluation of sport motions that helps to decrease the risk of Injury and improve athletic performance. Sport and exercise biomechanics is the scientific study of human movement mechanics. It refers to the detailed analysis and evaluation of how individuals move when engaging in sports. Research-based on primary data analysis to determine the study used SPSS software and generated results including ANOVA test, pair sample test, etc. Mechanics is a branch of physics that studies motion and the forces that cause it. Sport biomechanics is the science that explains how and why the human body moves in the manner it functions. This phrase frequently refers to an athlete's interaction, equipment, and surroundings in sports and exercise. Biomechanics has two traditional subfields: kinematics and kinetics. Kinematics is a branch of mechanics that studies the geometry of object motion, such as acceleration, velocity, and displacement but does not consider the forces that cause the motion. Kinetics is the study of the relationships between a body's force system and the changes in motion that arise from it. In light of this, we must include skeletal, muscular, and neurological components while addressing biomechanics. Sports injuries are preventable; however, many athletes continue to suffer from them. Injuries can prohibit athletes from playing to their full potential, and in certain situations, they may be recommended not to participate. Overall, the results found that movement in high-impact sports shows negative and significant link with injury prevention. This can adversely affect the physical and psychological well-being of the athlete and their team.
