Proprioception Testing in Junior Athletes Training using the “Gyko” Sensor

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Proprioceptive training is crucial for enhancing coordination, balance, and injury prevention in athletes, especially in their developmental stages. This study investigates the application of the Gyko sensor for testing proprioceptive abilities in junior athletes. The Gyko sensor, a portable motion analysis device, provides real-time data on movement and postural control. The study assesses the effectiveness of proprioceptive training by analyzing parameters such as balance, stability, and joint positioning accuracy in young athletes. Results highlight the sensor's potential in monitoring improvements and tailoring individualized training programs to optimize athletic performance and reduce injury risk.
