The kinetic chain in football (soccer)

Let's talk about the kinetic chain. The kinetic chain is a super important concept in biomechanics and is used in many different sports like football (soccer), tennis, golf, basketball, cricket and baseball. It describes how body parts extend out sequentially one after another like how your arm unravels when throwing a ball or how your legs straightens out when kicking a football. The beauty of this movement is it harnesses the power of physics to amplify velocity and create as much power as possible. In this video, we'll explore the physics behind how this works.

Great video for general understanding, thak you) But there're a little bit of of mess with the moment of inertia and the door opening. This moment of inertia ( I ) stays the same in both case(pivot point determines it). But force moment ( M ) and angular accel(a) change. M decreases as we move closer to the pivot point, remaining force the same, and therefore a decreases (cause M = I * a) and because of that we get the door moves clowly.

this video is awesome, really clean. which uni are you studying at?

Great video, Wasim. Simple and clear. Footballers tend to get hamstring injuries frequently due to multiple factors & these injuries have a 50% reoccurrence rate. Players need a certain amount of tension in their hamstrings so they can kick the ball with power but not so much tension that the muscles tear. The football industry needs more data on when (age) these injuries can occur so they can preemptively do something about them.

Great and easily digestible video. I really liked the biomechanics of climbing series and would like to see more from that topic. Cheers.

Thanks for the feedback

Good morning,
what training would you do to increase his ball striking.
Which muscles (quadriceps, hamstrings, calves) and under which muscle contraction (eccentric, isometric, concentric)?
With weights or elastics?
Thank you very much for your answer.
happy new year 2023 and a good morning from Paris.

I’m a fanatic for FK’s and luckily possess a rocket of a left foot.
My best tip is work on your flexibility! Range of motion cannot be overstated.
Strengthen your core.. you want to generate maximum whip from your hips.
Lastly and most importantly is technique. Use All of your body!
Opposing shoulder/arm to kicking leg move at the same speed and stop together. Be sure to follow through the ball.. more weight behind the ball means more power!
Goodluck

Science behind speed training .please make a video

It would be great to have this kind of concept about parkour! It such a new sport and i feel there's so much to understand

[@CuriousDoc]

Great idea
