Biomechanical analysis
-
Consider other factors (clothing, visibility, setting etc.)
-
-
-
Performer characteristics such as age, gender, antrhopometry and skill level
-
-
Newton's Laws of Motion
#1 - The law of inertia
A body will remain at rest or in uniform motion until an external unbalanced force acts on that body to change its state of motion

Biomechanics equipment
Video, high speed photography, slow motion analysis, 3-D motion analysis; computer and digital analysis; force platforms - acceleration and deceleration; wind tunnels - streamlining positions; resistance pools - swimming technique; electromyography - measurement of muscle force and action; goniometry - measurement of joint angles
Biomechanics is the study of living things from a mechanical perspective and aims to improve movement to help enhance performance. Biomechanical movement analysis can be qualitative or quantitative
