Longitudinal intervention study demonstrates significant improvements in proprioceptive acuity and motor coordination in martial arts practitioners, highlighting pathways to mind-body synergy.
Quantitative evaluation of mind-body coordination in martial arts practice requires integrated analysis of movement perception, physiological signals, and motor-control dynamics. This study investigates perceptual alienation and mind-body synergy using phenomenological body theory, embodied cognition, and an 18-month intervention experiment involving 368 practitioners. Body perception scales, inertial measurement units, electromyography, electroencephalography, and heart-rate-variability indicators are used to characterize proprioceptive acuity, perception–movement coupling, body-schema integrity, autonomic balance, and muscle coordination. A three-stage intervention model is implemented, including proprioceptive reconstruction, perception–consciousness–movement feedback-loop construction, and holistic practice. Results show that proprioceptive acuity increases by 83.7%, perception–movement coupling improves by 91.2%, body-schema integrity reaches 89.3%, and the intention–limb response delay decreases from 682 ms to 126 ms. The framework provides a measurable pathway for human motion analysis, physiological signal processing, and bioelectromagnetic sensing-based evaluation of motor coordination.
