Abstract

Biomechanics is the area of study of kinematic and kinematic components involved in human body movement by delving into elements such as muscle strength, ranges of motion, acceleration, velocity and displacement. In high performance sport, the study of the biomechanical variables that affect the motor gesture is of vital importance to understand the mechanisms of control and adaptation of the movement to specific activities, in order to develop programs to improve the execution of the movement in certain phases of the sports gesture and prevent injuries from the study of the motor gesture. For this reason the aim of this article is to carry out a systematic review of the literature on the use of technology for the evaluation and intervention of biomechanics in high performance sport.
