The effect of individual neuromuscular properties on performance in sports
We present a mathematical formulation of notions used in training science such as sports performance, performance determining factor and performance limiting factor. We give an example of model equations describing the relationship between individual neuromuscular properties and the associated performance in sports. An essential factor in modelling human movements is to determine the values of the subject's properties individually and in vivo. We perform measurements and identify the parameters describing the person's properties in the model equation. Simulations show effects of individual differences in the neuromuscular properties on the performance. Furthermore, we show the influence of changes in movement conditions on the performance.
