Fundamentals of kinesiology and


biomechanics in sports
Long Answer Questions (carrying 5 marks)
Q1What do youmean by biomechanics?
Elaborate the importance of Biomechanics
in the field of games and sports
Ans :Biomechanics is the study of how
living things move, using the principles o
physics and mechanics. It is a scientific
Tield tnat analyzes the structure and

s of sports and
names The detailed descriotion of the

importance of mechanics is started below.

1Assists in improvement technique: The


simple method for improving performance
in most of the sports is to improve the
technique of sports person. As a meta of
fact, it is one of the motivating factors for
studying biomechanics. Biomechanics can
be applied to improve techniques in two
ways. First the teacher of physical
education may use their knowledge of
mechanics to correct or rectify the errors of
asports person in order to improve the
proper execution of a skill, Second the
sports person made this order new and
more effective techniques for performing a
sports skill.
2 Helps in improving equipment
-Study of biomechanics also helps in
improving sports equipment. It helps in
improving designs for the equipment used
in various Sports. Shoes and sports clothes
constituted the equipment used in almost
every sport. The equipment used by sports
persons may have an effect on the
performance.
3 Facilitates performance in sports: The
main goal of biomechanics is the
improvement in sports performance
Indeed biomechanics enhances

performance by utilising mechanical


principles to improve an individuals
technique, the equipment he/she uses and
two modify the specific training method.
Along with this biomechanics is also used
to develop such techniques that reduce the
chances of injuries as well as make
anges in the equipment design to reduce

4Supports in preventing injury


ing injury in
various wavs. It also helps in the process of
rehabilitation of injuries. In fact,
biomechanics is useful in identifying what
the process may have caused and injury,
how to prevent the injury.
5.Helps in promoting safety :
Biomechanics also helps in promoting the
safety of sportspersons . When a
sportsperson moves his nervouS system is
muscle to contract. The constrctions
causes bones to move around the axes of
joints. When teachers of physical education
import training to the sportpersons. They
have responsibility to not only quide them
to enhance their performance but do so in a
safe and effective manner.

. Works in the improvement of training


Biomechanics has a potential for bringing
modifications in training which helps in
improving sports performance.
Biomechanics can be applied in various
ways. A proper mechanical analysis of the
technical deficiencies of a sportsperson
can help a physical education teacher in
identifying the type of training the
sportspersons requires in improving the
sports performance
7. Facilities understanding of human body.
Q2 What do you mean by kinseology ?
Discuss its importance in sports
Ans: Kinesiology is the scientific study of
how humans move, perform, and function.
It's a multidisciplinary fheld that combines
physiology, biomechanics, and psychology.
The importance of kinseology is mentioned.
1. Helps in avoiding sports injury : Sports
1s sprain,strain, tusion

, l l nccur
during training or competition in games and
snorts Genelia It is seen that most of the
sportspersons fall prey on some or the
other sports injury during their sports
career.

2. Helps in better and easy coaching:


Kinesiology helps the physical education
coach to analyze the sports activity or
sports for better and easier teaching and
coaching. The knowledge and application
of the principal of kinesiology can
contribute extremely to teaching various
fundamental skills and techniques during
sports coaching.
3. Helps in getting better results
Kinesiology plays a very significant role in
getting better results. In fact, it helps the
physical education teacher or coach to
provide effective scientific training to the
sports persons and to give the optimal
performance of the sports skills and
techniques.
4. Helps to avoid unwanted moments and
errors : Kinesiology helps to avoid
unwanted moments, errors and faults of
Sports Skills and techniques. Without the
proper knowledge of the principals of
kinesiology. it is difficult to remove the
fauits in techniques and sports skills.
5. Helps in the selection of exercises and
preparation of activity programme.
Kinesiology helps in the selection of
exercises and preparation of activity
programmes on the basis of individual
needs, sex, age, etc.
