Efficiency in Kinesiology

Overview & Synopsis

This Reprint focuses on innovative applied research aimed at enhancing motor skills to achieve superior sporting performance. Over the past decades, evidence-based training foundations have advanced both the biomotor and technical aspects of athletic development. Yet, as sports science evolves, emerging methodologies and technologies continue to reshape how performance is evaluated, improved, and predicted. The Reprint highlights the dynamic relationship between scientific innovation and practical application in sports. It addresses the challenges of translating laboratory findings into effective field practices and examines how new approaches can be validated and optimized for real-world performance enhancement. Contributions explore the influence of both intrinsic and extrinsic factors on athletic outcomes, including training methodology, recovery management, equipment use, socio-economic and geographic influences, and early specialization. Through original research and comprehensive reviews, this Reprint provides a deeper understanding of strategies to model, evaluate, and elevate motor performance across all levels of sport—from amateur to elite.
