Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
New perspectives that lead to performance improvements represent an important issue for sport scientists and coaches.
Performance enhancement depends not only on training content and load prescription but also on innovative technological and practical methods or approaches that can be applied during training or for the assessment of relevant parameters. This poses new challenges in the development of science-based techniques to inform sport scientists.
We invite submissions of contemporary research related to all aspects of sport and exercise performance development to this Special Issue. Possible topic areas broadly include recent approaches to innovative technology in terms of methods of exercise and sports training application, innovative and applied methods to assess exercise performance, and performance moniroting. Both experimental studies and review papers are welcome. We look forward to receiving your submissions.
