Proprioceptive Training Study for the Optimization of the 110 M. Hurdles Technique

Proprioceptive training represents a contemporary dimension in athletic preparation, yielding significant performance enhancements for athletes around the globe. Our study aims to quantify the technical performance of the hurdle step via biomechanical analysis. This involves measuring kinematic parameters and their association with the enhancement of coordination abilities, derived from tailored proprioceptive training. By analyzing kinematic parameters and implementing a specialized motor program, we can enhance coordination abilities and rectify technical mistakes. This leads to improved grouping of the lower limbs, quicker transitions, as well as more stable and effective landings. Such improvements optimize the movement path of the body’s center of gravity towards the hurdle plane and ensure optimal spatial-temporal alignment for subsequent strides between hurdles.
