Symmetry is widely regarded as a marker of optimal movement, yet increasing evidence shows that asymmetry may also reflect functional adaptation, compensation strategies, or task-specific specialization in both clinical and athletic contexts. The Reprint brings together studies addressing structural and functional symmetry across the lifespan and levels of performance. Topics include upper and lower limb asymmetry, postural alignment, bodyweight distribution, muscle activation patterns, and their relationships with balance, locomotion, daily activities, and sports-specific actions. Several contributions analyze symmetry in recreational, Olympic, and Paralympic sports, highlighting implications for performance analysis and injury prevention. Others focus on neurological and musculoskeletal conditions, demonstrating how symmetry-related metrics can inform assessment and guide rehabilitation strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Reprint provides a clear overview of how symmetry and asymmetry manifest in human movement, how they can be quantified, and how they contribute to training, prevention, and recovery. It serves as a reference resource for researchers, clinicians, and practitioners interested in advancing evidence-based applications of symmetry in motor control, sports, and rehabilitation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arthur de Sá Ferreira\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3725867445\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783725867448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mdpi AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/23\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 110\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.44d","brand":"Arthur de Sá Ferreira","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49001250521343,"sku":"9783725867448","price":72.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/symmetry-application-in-motor-control-arthur-de-sza-ferreira-9783725867448","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
