Humans developed complex upper arms movements and bipedal gaits in order to move and locomote. To enhance their performance, they started inventing smart passive mechanical tools. This need arose from intrinsic limitations of their muscle-joint-bone systems and metabolic power availability. Newly invented devices were mainly introduced in order to cope with such constraints. The aim of this Special Issue is to advance knowledge regarding symmetry, biomechanics and energetics of passively assisted human movement and locomotion. 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 606 $aResearch and information: general$2bicssc 610 $aaerobic training 610 $aagreement 610 $aangles 610 $aasymmetries 610 $abiomechanics 610 $abody centre of mass 610 $adual task 610 $afootball performance 610 $afootball skills 610 $aforce plate 610 $agait 610 $ahuman gait 610 $ahuman performance 610 $aimbalance 610 $akinematics 610 $alocomotion 610 $amore affected side 610 $amuscle endurance 610 $aParkinson's disease 610 $apole walking 610 $arace walking 610 $aspatiotemporal 610 $ateam sport 610 $atorso extensors 610 $atorso flexors 610 $aturning 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 615 7$aResearch and information: general 700 $aArdigo$b Luca Paolo$4edt$01324215 702 $aArdigo$b Luca Paolo$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557764403321 996 $aBiomechanics Energetics of Natural Assisted Human Comparative Movement Locomotion$93036058 997 $aUNINA
