The programme includes both theory and practice in a number of field and track events as well as gymnastics. Analysis both qualitative and quantitative will be studied with respect to the currently established movement models.

Program

Qualitative technique analysis of sport movement models and learning strategies for correcting technical errors.
• Technique analysis of sprint running and endurance running; didactic progression drills; motor pattern of touchdown of the foot and the push-off phase. An in-depth analysis of the difference of amplitude and frequency of the step in sprint running and endurance running.
• Technique analysis of the sprint start: the study of joint angles at set position and block clearance, and an overview of the typical technical errors.
• Technique analysis of high hurdles: didactic progression drills for the first movement leg and the second movement leg, and an overview of the typical technical errors.
• Technique analysis of high jump and long jump: didactic progression drills of the penultimate and the take-off steps, and an overview of the typical technical errors.
• Technique analysis of shot put drills used to teach throwing from the power position, and an overview of the typical technical errors.
