The start is what makes a race overall and analysing which start gives the individual optimal start is what biomechanics covers. In this study‚ the biomechanics looks at how to reach top speed and cover distances as fast and smoothly as possible and through analysation and searches on how to maintain these ideas; biomechanics points out the fact rhythm comes from a sprint start and the race is made on the starting blocks according to Cooper (1972).

Their movements are done quickly and purposefully. An athlete with little or no energy moves lethargically they are no fun to watch and are not

Explain in your own words what Biomechanics is and how a good understanding of biomechanics can benefit an athlete? Biomechanics is a branch of sport science‚ through the understanding of the internal and external forces which act on an athlete effecting their performance. For an athlete learning the functional anatomy and mechanics of movement will help the athlete

1. 2. describe how the warm up and cool down exercises relate to the principles of biomechanics and human anatomy and physiology. Give several examples to illustrate your point. Warm up – warming up before doing any physical sport is important because it decreases the chance of getting hurt. It increases your blood temperature which increases the blood flow. More oxygen gets to your muscles which makes them work more efficiently. It also increases muscle temperature so it can contract and

electromyograph detects the electrical potential generated by muscle cells when these cells are electrically or neurologically activated. The signals can be analyzed to detect medical abnormalities‚ activation level‚ or recruitment order‚ or to analyze the biomechanics of human or animal movement. In 1771‚ Galvani utilized electrical stimulation to demonstrate its effects on muscular tissue produces contraction and force. This electrical response was not quantified until the development of improved recording
