    Beter balanceren dankzij de ASM Masters of Movement

    October 4, 2024

    Dit is de 197e aflevering van de Slimmer Presteren Podcast, over sport, onderzoek en innovatie. In deze aflevering hebben Gerrit en Jurgen het over:

    Beter balanceren dankzij de ASM Masters of Movement

    INLEIDING:

    Hilbert van der Duim die dankzij een vogelpoepje een schuiver over het ijs maakt, de halve Jumbo-Visma ploeg die door een lek kinderzwembadje ten val komt en Femke Bol die net voor de finishlijn struikelt.

    Een goede balans is essentieel tijdens het bewegen Maar hoe train je dit? En zorgen we dat innovatieve ideeën de sport ook echt hierbij helpen? We staken ons licht op bij de afgelopen Masters of Movement bijeenkomst van het ASM.

    Ontdek in deze aflevering van de Slimmer Presteren Podcast hoe je je balans kunt verbeteren met innovatieve trainingsmethoden zoals het ASM. Leer hoe balans je sportprestaties naar een hoger niveau tilt en blessures voorkomt!

    Vragen die in deze aflevering worden beantwoord: 

    Waarom is balans belangrijk voor sportprestaties?

    Balans is essentieel om blessures te voorkomen en efficiënt te bewegen. Zonder balans kun je niet goed presteren, of je nu rent, fietst of schaatst.

    Hoe kan ik balans trainen?

    Je kunt balans trainen door variatie in je bewegingen, zoals dansen, padel of sporten die rollen en glijden omvatten. Dit versterkt je algemene beweegvaardigheden.

    Wat is het Athletic Skills Model (ASM)?

    Het ASM is een model dat atleten breed motorisch traint, door verschillende vormen van beweging aan te bieden. Dit zorgt voor een betere algehele beweegvaardigheid, wat sportprestaties ten goede komt.

    Waarom duurt het vaak lang voordat innovaties in de sport worden toegepast?

    Innovaties zoals de klapschaats worden vaak niet meteen omarmd door sporters en coaches. Het kost tijd om nieuwe ideeën te testen en te bewijzen dat ze in de praktijk werken.

    Hoe kan balans de prestaties van hardlopers verbeteren?

    Een betere balans zorgt ervoor dat hardlopers efficiënter kunnen bewegen, wat leidt tot minder energieverbruik en een verbeterde loopeconomie.
