Physical Activity as a Natural Cure for Non-Communicable Diseases
The modern way of life is, to a large extent, connected with a number of problems that occur in the field of public health, and non-communicable diseases are one of them. It is well-know that non-communicable diseases are chronic diseases that tend to be of long duration and are the result of a combination of genetic, physiological, environmental and behavioral factors. The main types of non-communicable diseases are cardiovascular diseases, cancers, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes, while the main risk factors are modifiable behavioral risk factors (such as tobacco use, physical inactivity, unhealthy diet and the harmful use of alcohol) and metabolic risk factors (such as raised bl...
Exercise and Biomechanical Intervention in the Prevention, Management and Rehabilitation of Neuro-musculoskeletal Disorders, volume II
Neuromusculoskeletal biomechanics has been a popular topic in understanding the disorders of the human motor system during daily, clinical, and sport-specific activities. Recent studies have been conducted to examine the neuromusculoskeletal control (e.g., postural control, gait stability and falling), the mechanisms of sports injuries (e.g., Anterior Cruciate Ligament, Achilles Tendon, hamstring strain, and bone fracture) and clinical diseases (e.g., joint Osteoarthritis and cerebral palsy, etc.), and the task-based functional assessment. However, previous biomechanical approaches, such as the traditional lab-based experiments, musculoskeletal (MSK) modeling and Finite Element (FE) simulati...
A Physiologically-Based Approach to Study Different Types of Locomotion in Association with Core Performance
Good posture and strong core muscles are essential for most athletic movements, but also for everyday activities. Among them, walking and running require lumbo-pelvic stability and mobility for efficient movement and high-level performace. This is especially important during a large range of trunk motions when changing the direction of movement, an abrupt walk to run transition, or extreme uphill and downhill walking or running. Such repetitive trunk loading over time can contribute to occurence of back problems and lower limb injuries. To avoid these unwanted effects, a novel approach to studying the physiology of locomotion in relation to spine motion and balance function is required. This...
Physical Education, Health and Education Innovation
Today's society demands to train children and adolescents who develop in an environment based on respect and the promotion of educational values. This aspect is especially relevant to promoting physical activity and its relationship with healthy habits, such as the consumption of unprocessed foods, the reduction of a sedentary lifestyle and the improvement of adherence to sports. In this sense, the World Health Organization warns that the current rates of overweight and obesity are very high and that we must combat them. From formal education, you can help improve healthy habits with educational programs and especially in Physical Education, a subject where the work of physical, social and cognitive well-being has special relevance. Since the 20th century, studies and research that have aimed to combat unhealthy habits in educational centres and sports schools have increased. Not only by promoting physical activity within the school, but above all by seeking to generate adherence towards the future of students and athletes.
