This Reprint, "Applied Biomechanics and Sports Sciences", brings together a collection of studies that exemplify the interdisciplinarity nature of biomechanics as applied to human movement and athletic performance. The contributions within explore neuromuscular function, training optimization and sport-specific adaptations across multiple disciplines, including football, swimming, badminton and water polo. By integrating experimental, analytical and applied perspectives, this Reprint highlights how biomechanical assessment and evidence-based strength and conditioning approaches contribute to enhanced performance and injury prevention. This collection provides valuable insights for researchers, coaches and practitioners, seeking to bridge the gap between laboratory and practical sports applications.
