Gert-Peter Brüggemann (* 1952 in Soest ) is a German sports scientist and university professor .

Life

Brüggemann passed his Abitur in his hometown of Soest in 1970 , after which he studied mathematics, sports, geography and education at the Westphalian Wilhelms University in Münster and at the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main until 1976. He received his doctorate in 1980 in Frankfurt am Main, where he worked at the university there from 1977 to 1982 as a research assistant and in 1982 and 1983 as head of the biomechanical laboratory in the rank of academic council.

In 1984 Brüggemann took up a C3 professorship for sports science at the German Sports University Cologne (DSHS) , and in 1993 he switched to a C4 professorship for training and movement theory in individual sports at the DSHS . He held this until 2000, when he also took up a C4 professorship for biomechanics at the sports university and took over the management of the Institute for Biomechanics and Orthopedics. From 1987 to 1990 and from 1995 to 1999 he held the office of Vice Rector for Studies and Teaching at the DSHS and was Dean of Faculty III from 1991 to 1994.

From 1993 Brüggemann was a member of the Medical Commission of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), he was chairman of the German Society for Biomechanics and board member of the International Society for Biomechanics. He was chairman of the science committee of the International Gymnastics Federation (ITB) and a member of the Presidium of Olympic Sports in the German Gymnastics Federation (DTB). He also worked as a special reviewer for the German Research Foundation .

In 2008 Brüggemann was awarded an honorary professorship by the Shanghai Sports University.

Brüggemann's main areas of research were the biomechanics of athletic movements, the stress on the structures of the musculoskeletal system in sport and everyday life, the biomechanics of biological structures, sports shoe research, sports injuries (including in artistic gymnastics).

He retired in 2017. In the same year he was made an honorary member of the German Society for Biomechanics.
