Sports Biomechanics

In the automotive language, especially in "Formula 1" we always talking about power and attitude, two fundamental features for performance.
The experts in this area have realized that "the power is nothing without control ".
It follows that:

Powerful Engine but poor stability = Loss performance ↓

Powerful Engine with efficient stability = Increase Performance ↑

Therefore increases the importance of small details related to the stability and balance between movement and distribution organs
Comparing the athlete to a racing car, he can find difficult to reach the maximum performance or have a lack of continuity, connected to constant factors of "rupture”.
These negative factors may be linked to external conditions, relating to the specialty sports, but many times are caused by structural or functional predisposition of the athlete.
Therefore, the physical, athletic and technique training becomes indispensable for the posture and biomechanical evaluation, in static situation and especially in dynamic conditions.
For years it was realized that the greatest enemy of “system” maintaining is shock wave of the body that it come crashing to the hard artificial ground (unnatural habitat).
The shock wave equal to 4 degrees on the Richter scale and its speed is 200 km / h.
this characteristic vibrational propagator is a function of speed –mass –ground.
These factors create mechanical- muscle- articular compensations very damaging when compared to the time factor:

Stimulus x Time = Trauma and/or Reduced athletic performance

The physics engineering has taught that all materials on earth has a point and time of break-up:
the solicitation is equal and constant,the changing factor is the time, whose duration is a function of shock absorption capacity.Today, with static, dynamic and functional evaluation of body mechanics, we can find out if there are biostructural changes and evaluation the behavior during the dynamic movement.
In addition to the basic postural assessment, now it is possible to evaluate and better understand the mechanics of the body during standing, studying the foot as an organ of locomotion, with methodologies that allow the assessment of deambulation in real time.
Thanks to computerized equipment baropodometric-kinematics-EMG that record the operation of the complex mechanism of the march to the ground by measuring the pressures and changes in joint and muscle in relation to them.
We were able to improve the mechanics of the "Machine Man" stopped the stimulus that the foot absorbs from the ground and eliminating the instability created the joints of the upper body and their compensation given by the result of excessive muscle contracture between agonists and antagonists.

The application under the foot of an innovative and dynamic plantar interface (podholistic orthotics, called by Prof. Avagnina TOR-timing orthotic rebalance) optimizes the communication between body structure and the ground and  it creates a perfect stability for improve  the performance of the athlete but also to prevent ruptures and to obtain the good preservation of the "Machine-Athlete "
