Phase portrait of control movements - one of the criteria of technical skill of an athlete
Zagrevskiy, V. I., Zagrevskiy, O. I., Lavshuk, D. A.Published in Theory and Practice of Physical Culture (2024)“…It was revealed that the deformation of the kinematic control structure is most significant in changing the area of the phase portrait and varies within 15-30% of the area of the original image, which, however, does not lead to a significant restructuring of the technical basis of the motor action and makes it possible to implement the target setting of the exercise. …”

Gymnastics experience enhances the development of bipedal-stance multi-segmental coordination and control during proprioceptive reweighting
Busquets, A., Ferrer-Uris, B., Angulo-Barroso, R., Federolf, P.Published in Frontiers in Psychology (2021)“…The first (principal velocities, PV-rSTD) and second (principal accelerations, PA-rSTD) time-derivatives characterized the rate-dependent sensory information associated with and the neuromuscular control of the postural movements, respectively. Children without gymnastic experience showed a different postural coordinative structure and different sensory-motor control characteristics. …”

Long term measures of vestibulo-ocular reflex function in high level male gymnasts and its possible role during context specific rotational tasks
von Laßberg, C., Campos, J. L., Beykirch, K. A.Published in PLOS ONE (2021)“…We have therefore called it "spinal motor-coupled eye movements" (SCEM) and have interpreted the phenomenon to likely be caused by anti-compensatory functions of more proprioceptive mediated reflexes and perhaps other mechanisms (e.g., top-down regulation as part of a motor plan) to effectively cope with a new-orientation in space, undisturbed by EREM functions. …”

Feedback during learning gymnastic exercises
Niznikowski, T.Published in Theory and Practice of Physical Culture (2020)“…Conclusions: The findings demonstrate that a large amount of urgent verbal information about committed technical errors, which is conveyed by the coach to gymnast, negatively affects the process of learning motor actions. The reduction of corrective actions to the key elements of the motor task provides a significantly better learning outcome.…”
