Biomechanics is the science of how bones, muscles, ligaments, and tendons work together to create movement in a living body. Biomechanics is a branch of the larger field of kinesiology that focuses on the mechanics of movement.
The importance of biomechanics in sports are:
- Improves sports performance – Biomechanics principles teach us how to use proper techniques, effective posture, and minimal muscle force to get more efficient results, that improve sports performance.
- Technique improvement – the physical education teacher corrects the errors using biomechanical concepts. This aids in the improvement of the player’s performance and performance.
- Improved sports equipment development – biomechanical principles are employed to change sports equipment.
