Understanding Sports Injury Through a Dynamical Systems Approach
Exploring the concept of understanding sports injuries from a dynamical systems approach, the podcast delves into the complexities of factors such as good variability, coordination, and movement synergies. By analyzing acute injuries in sports like baseball and the lack of predictability in injury occurrence, the limitations of linear injury models become evident. Traditional models based on deterministic systems fail to capture the unpredictable interactions within athletes and their environments, highlighting the need for a dynamic perspective in injury prevention and management.
