Biomechanics and wearable technologies have become integral in advancing sports science, offering unique opportunities for improving athletic performance, preventing injuries, and optimizing rehabilitation. This review synthesizes current research in biomechanics, focusing on the application of wearable technologies such as inertial measurement units (IMUs), exoskeletons, and motion capture systems, which help athletes monitor movement patterns, detect biomechanical inefficiencies, and prevent injury. Key studies emphasize the role of real-time monitoring in improving performance and rehabilitation outcomes. The review highlights the growing intersection of biomechanics and wearable technologies in both professional sports and everyday fitness, aiming to provide personalized approaches to training and recovery. Challenges regarding accessibility, data integration, and affordability are discussed, alongside future research directions aimed at overcoming these barriers and advancing sports medicine and injury prevention strategies.
