Hva er egentlig nevromuskulær trening?
Abstract
Much attention has in the recent years been given to the concept of neuromuscular training (NMT), and it has been argued that such training should replace traditional regimes in the rehabilitation of athletes with ruptures of the anterior cruciate ligament. The present paper argues that the concept of NMT is poorly defined, that the theoretical basis of the concept and the training is unclear, and that the training is not really new. An alternative explanation of NMT is proposed, based on the literature on motor control and motor learning. It is argued that what has been presented as NMT has long been known in this literature under the name of coordination, and that the training can be described as coordination training of gradually increased complexity.
