Abstract
Modern Technologies for Increasing Performance and Reducing Stress, presents modern technological advances for the development of high-performance human movements, reducing training- and competition-based stress on athletes and preventing common mechanical and sports-related neuro-musculo-skeletal injuries

Recall that the most important movements in various sports include: short and long sprints, high—and long-jumps (with either a single—or double-legged take-off), hand throws, hand or foot dribbling, kicks, punches and various techniques in martial arts, serves, forehands and backhands in tennis, ball hits in baseball, cricket, softball, etc.
