About Giordano Scinicarelli, Ph.D. Candidate
Performance Screening in Training and Therapy:- Standardization and implementation of a functional test battery for the lower extremities
- Inter-limb asymmetries and functional performance deficits
- Motion capture system (Qualisys) with biomechanical markers and lab set-up
- Movement quality analysis (Kinetisense) with 3D-Realtime markerless set-up
- Isokinetic dynamometer for muscle strength imbalances
Goals:
- Individualized prevention and rehabilitation training programs
- Improve performance
- Decrease injury risk factors
- Minimize the risk of injury/reinjury
- Return to competition
Target Skills:
Functional movement. Balance. Posture. Proprioception. Coordination. Neuromuscular control. Range of motion. Strength. Power. Speed. Agility. Movement Quality.
