About
Dr. Charly Fornasier‐Santos is a leading researcher in sports biomechanics and neuromuscular performance, with a primary focus on optimizing sprint training for elite athletes. His work centers on understanding how external resistance and velocity modulate muscle activation patterns, particularly in the thigh and gluteal muscles during resisted sprint running. His most cited study (2025) provides groundbreaking insights into the electromyographic (EMG) responses of these key muscle groups under varying resistance loads, offering evidence-based guidance for coaches to fine-tune training protocols for maximal power and injury prevention. By systematically examining the interaction between resistance and speed, Fornasier‐Santos has advanced the practical application of horizontal resistance in sprint training, bridging a critical gap between laboratory science and on-field performance. His contributions are already shaping modern athletic development, with his work cited by peers seeking to refine resistance-based sprint interventions. Fornasier‐Santos’s research stands out for its direct translational value, empowering athletes and practitioners to harness biomechanical principles for competitive advantage.
