Biomechanics of handball
S. Markovic
Abstract: Biomechanics of sports movements, as a science which studies human movements, discovers the laws that mechanically influence sports results.
Kinematics, a branch of mechanics, is a science of movements and as such deals with the change of positions, velocity and acceleration in all sorts of movements without taking into consideration the forces affecting them.
Accurately quantifiable in terms of space and time, a human body, can be subjected to various diagnostic procedures. At the same time, each human body movement, especially the sports one, has its optimum performance technique primarily characterized by maximum efficiency and minimum energy consumption. Therefore, a constructive change of one or a set of biomechanical parameters can affect the final result (sports success)
On the basis of the results obtained by such a method it is possible to decide on the optimal movement structure for a given subject.
