Basic Information

Presentation

Human movement is one of the objects of study of the sciences of physical activity and sports, either in the field of sports performance or in learning and motor control. In these areas it is necessary to know a methodology and tools for the evaluation of the neuromuscular aspects involved in them.

Objectives

Know the foundation and methodology in the use of vertical jumps and the force-velocity profile for the neuromuscular assessment of sports training

Competences

  • That the student is able to apply the neuromuscular assessment tools following appropriate procedures and methodology.
  • That the student is able to interpret the data obtained with the neuromuscular evaluation tools.
  • That the student is able to know and understand the physiological and biomechanical factors that condition the training and development of neuromuscular strength.
  • That the student is able to apply a technological control of the athlete's performance during the training process and in competition.
  • That the student is able to interpret the data obtained with the neuromuscular assessment tools

Program

Day 1:

Morning session:

Studies and discussion on the neuromuscular aspects involved in the vertical jump

Studies and discussion on the reliability of vertical jumps in different populations

Concepts related to muscle strength:

  •  force-time curve
  •  force-velocity curve
  •  strength deficit
  •  maximal strength and explosive strength

Afternoon session:

Vertical jump record

Analysis of the vertical jumps and calculations of interest rates

Day 2:

Morning session:

Recording of the force-velocity curve

Force-velocity curve analysis
