Item Importancia de la medición del centro de presión en plataformas de fuerza en el deporte.(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2023) Rodriguez Jiménez, Santiago; Betancourt Pérez, Sebastián; Erazo Navia, Paola Andrea; Beltrán Picón, Sol Patricia (Directora)The lack of knowledge among coaches regarding information related to the center of pressure and its applicability to improving physical performance is currently a problematic situation. Therefore, the objective of this work is to conduct a literature review on the importance of measuring the center of pressure on force platforms in sports. It is important to highlight that the results of center of pressure measurements offer coaches varied information, depending on the sport. In golf, the center of pressure (COP) influences the accuracy of the swing and shot. In soccer, COP is used to evaluate performance and technique during the execution of specific technical skills. In track and field, COP shifts from the outside of the rearfoot to the inside of the midfoot and then to the forefoot during the stance cycle.
