Future Challenges in the Assessment of Proprioception in Exercise Sciences: is Imitation an Alternative?

To perform any body movement, a series of sensory processes are required that provide the necessary information. Once this sensory data is integrated at the cortical level, an optimal response is given considering but not limited to space and time. This neuromotor coordination results in a synergic, intentional, and synchronic action. Voluntary movements require a coordinated and efficient muscle contraction mediated by the central nervous system integration processes (Tuthill and Azim, 2018). To do so, the cerebellum and brain regulate the sensitive data obtained from a multi-model sensory system. In the case of corporeal control or body control, it is required information from the somatosensory sense as the one that gives information from the “inside” of the body (ten Donkelaar et al., 2020). Once the body interacts with the environment in time and space, this body control needs the ocular, vestibular, tact, and auditory exteroceptive senses to obtain information from the context. This is how the term spatio-temporal body control could be used.
