The research highlighted the importance of kinesiology and biomechanical analysis of movement in nowadays sports performance. Our case study followed a biomechanical structure of movement of forearm flexion and extension regarding angle, angular velocity, angular acceleration, tangential velocity, centripetal acceleration, resultant acceleration. As a research method, the Kinovea program, version 0.9.3., is used for biomechanical analysis using some specific kinesiological parameters of movement. The biomechanical movement results highlighted the specific forearm flexion and extension, showing the entire movement from a specific angle and speed.
