Performance optimization is distinctly multidisciplinary. Optimized training concepts and the use of state-of-the-art technologies are crucial for improving performance. However, sports performance enhancement is in constant conflict with the protection of athletes' health. Notwithstanding the known positive effects of physical activity on health, the prevention and management of sports injuries remain major challenges to be addressed. Accordingly, this Special Issue on "Sports Performance and Health" consists of 17 original research papers, one review paper, and one commentary, and covers a wide range of topics related to fatigue, movement asymmetries, optimization of sports performance by training, technique, and/or tactics enhancements, prevention and management of sports injuries, optimization of sports equipment to increase performance and/or decrease the risk of injury, and innovations for sports performance, health, and load monitoring. As this Special Issue offers several new insights and multidisciplinary perspectives on sports performance and health, readers from around the world who work in these areas are expected to benefit from this Special Issue collection.Medicine and Nursingbicsscaccuracyagilityalpine ski racingalpine skiingankle injuryankle sprainasymmetryathlete safetyathletesathletes' healthbackpack loadsbadmintonbalancebasketballbasketball shootingbiological emotional evaluationbiomechanicscollar heightdynamic stabilityeccentricelbowelectromyographyepidemiologyfootforcegame-actionsglobal navigation satellite systemGPShandball shootinghealthy athleteshurdle clearancehurdlingIMUinertial motion captureinjuryinter-limb asymmetryinterval trainingisokineticjump performancekinematicskineticsknee injuryknee jointmeasurementmitochondrionmorphologymuscle activationsmusculoskeletal disordersmusculoskeletal injuriesMy Jump 2n/anicotinamide adenine dinucleotideone-dimensional statistical parametric mappingoptical motion captureperformance analysispersonalized treatmentpostural stabilitypowerpressure insolespreventionproprioceptionracketracket sportsrange of motionreliabilityRFD-SFshotski racingski waist-widthskiing simulationslope walkingsmartphonessoccerspinesportssports sciencessprintsstandingstrengthstrength trainingstrokessupramaximal loadssymmetrytable tennistapingtechnique analysistensiometertrainingtraining environmentvalidityvertical jump performancewristMedicine and NursingSupej Matejedt1328680Spörri JörgedtSupej MatejothSpörri JörgothBOOK9910557568103321Sports Performance and Health3038817UNINA
