Developmental kinesiology aspects for the ideal stereotype of the volleyball and tennis and other sports performance

 

Basic core stabilization as a prerequisite for locomotion patterns
The role of the diaphragm during aerobic/anaerobic exercise; dual postural-respiratory diaphragmatic function and how it applies into the volleyball and tennis technique.

Biomechanics of the volleyball and tennis with regard to sequence, timing, and interactions with the ground "Kinematic Sequence"

The extremities functional differentiation for the volleyball and tennis strokes, stepping forward and supporting function for the interplay between the ipsilateral and contralateral pattern during the sport technique.

DNS exercise positions to train core stabilization as a prerequisite for the ideal stroke stereotype

Biomechanical and developmental kinesiology principles applied to the volleyball and tennis athletes.

The most frequent types of musculoskeletal dysfunction resulting from non-optimal sport technique stereotypes and poor methodology of training.

Manual treatment, mobility/strengthening, and coordination (active) exercises from the developmental perspective in order to prepare the athlete for play, educating the athlete.
