Gymnastics
Coaching and Science: Biomechanics Perspectives

Gareth Irwin, Genevieve K. R. Williams & David G. Kerwin

Sports Biomechanics Research Group
Cardiff School of Sport
Cardiff Metropolitan University

Introduction

This chapter aims to demonstrate how biomechanics can contribute to the effectiveness of the coaching process.

Through the application of mechanical principles to biological systems biomechanics provides a relevant scientific tool.

This chapter leads the reader through specific examples of how knowledge of biomechanics can assist the coach in the gym through the development of tacit knowledge in relation to how skills ‘work’ and how best to develop skills.

This chapter explores key research themes applied to the Sport of Gymnastics, specifically the Coaching Biomechanics Interface (Irwin et al., 2013), the evolution of complex skills (Irwin et al., 2011; Kerwin and Irwin, 2011) and how the changes in apparatus and code of points have influenced the development of skills, with examples drawn from the research presented on the female Tkatchev by Kerwin and Irwin (2010; 2011) and Irwin et al. (2011).

Fundamental to gymnastics skill learning is the development of techniques that are effective, efficient and safe. Research has identified how coaches develop skills from a psychological and conceptual perspective (Irwin et al., 2005), combined the principles of training and biomechanics to the increase the understanding of the most effective skill pathways for learning gymnastics movements (Irwin and Kerwin, 2005; 2007a, 2007b).

Contemporary theories of motor control have been embedded into how best to develop skills. Research by Williams et al. (2012), will be discussed with reference to recent motor learning literature.

Introdução

O objetivo deste capítulo é demonstrar como a biomecânica pode contribuir para a efetividade do processo de treinamento. Através da aplicação de princípios mecânicos a sistemas biológicos, a biomecânica oferece uma ferramenta científica importante.

Este capítulo leva o leitor através de exemplos específicos de como o conhecimento de biomecânica pode ajudar o treinador na academia por meio do desenvolvimento de conhecimento tácito em relação a como as habilidades “funcionam” e como desenvolvê-las melhor.

O capítulo explora temas importantes de pesquisa aplicados à Ginástica, especificamente a Interface Biomecânica do Treinamento (Irwin et al., 2013), a evolução de habilidades complexas (Irwin et al., 2011; Kerwin e Irwin, 2011) e como as mudanças nos aparelhos e códigos de pontuação influenciaram o desenvolvimento das habilidades, com exemplos tirados da pesquisa apresentada sobre o movimento Tkatchev para mulheres por Kerwin e Irwin (2010,2011) e Irwin et al. (2011).

O desenvolvimento de técnicas que são efetivas, eficientes e seguras é fundamental para o aprendizado de habilidades em ginástica. Pesquisas identificaram como os treinadores desenvolvem habilidades a partir de uma perspectiva psicológica e conceitual (Irwin et al., 2005), combinaram os princípios de treinamento e biomecânica para aumentar o entendimento das sequências de habilidades mais efetivas no aprendizado dos movimentos da ginástica (Irwin and Kerwin, 2005; 2007a, 2007b).

Teorias contemporâneas de controle motor foram incorporadas para melhor desenvolver as habilidades. A pesquisa de Williams et al. (2012) será discutida com referência à literatura recente sobre aprendizado motor.
