Special Issue Information

Dear colleagues,

Enhancing athletic ability or physical ability has been the long-cherished desire and wish of every man and woman. And, understanding of human neuromusculoskeletal system is essential to developing the motor skills and physical abilities, thus, improving athletic and/or physical performance although in general, people believe that just by participating physical activity, they will improve their physical performance and/or health status. In addition to frequent engagement to sports or physical activity, training crucial and optimal movement patterns and/or applying critical physiological interventions play a significant role in enhancing physical performance to the optimal state and preventing sports and physical activity-related injuries.
Athletic/physical abilities are highly associated with the control and integration of neuromusculoskeletal system of human body. Discovering the optimal movement patterns and physiological interventions will be a critical factor to significantly enhance athletic performance and ability.
This special issue on Research, Analysis, or Practical Application for Enhancing Physiological or Physical Performance focuses on the advanced knowledge of movement patterns or practical implications of physiological or physical interventions for enhancing motor/physical ability. We welcome a diversity of articles, such as conceptual and empirical articles, reviews, critical comments, and meta-analyses, for submission to this Special Issue. We will accept manuscripts from different disciplines, addressing topics related to the scope.
