Klaus Mattes

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Klaus Mattes (born November 4,  1956 in Meerane ) is a German sports scientist and university professor .

Life

Mattes completed his studies in sport and geography at the Humboldt University of Berlin (HU Berlin) in 1981 with the distinction "very good", and in 1984 he received his doctorate with the title " magna cum laude ". The subject of his dissertation was "Investigations into the development of rowing skills in the second level (male): Basic principles for more effective rowing training in the DRSV of the GDR". At the State Central Institute for Physical Culture and Sport in Moscow , he completed a further course of study at the Chair of Biomechanics .

From 1984 to 1999 Mattes was a research assistant, from 1999 to 2003 research assistant and from 2003 to 2005 senior research assistant at the Institute for Sports Science at HU Berlin. In 2000 he completed his habilitation, the title of his thesis was "Investigations into the variability and stability of rowing performance and rowing technique in the main phases of rowing races".

In 2005 Mattes took up  a professorship for movement and training science at the Institute for Movement Science at the University of Hamburg .

The focus of his research work includes the subjects of “performance diagnostics and training control”, “biomechanical strength, performance and movement analysis”, “motor learning”, “measuring, test and training device development”, “talent diagnostics and promotion”, “prevention and Rehabilitation ”and“ Health Promotion ”.

His particular research interest was rowing . Mattes led several projects in this regard, including "Biomechanical support in racing rowing" (1999), "Rowing performance diagnostics" (2001), "Selection of boat crews for the junior national team (skull / belt) and the Nations Cup teams as well as feedback training for the boats in preparation the JWM or the Nations Cup "(2007)," Effect analysis of the acoustic feedback training with Sofirow to optimize the boat movement of cadre athletes of the German Rowing Association "(2011) and" Tangential introduction of force in the inner lever to increase the propulsion effect in oars "(2012) in athletics such as "performance diagnostics of kinematic characteristics of sprints, long jump attempts and horizontal multiple jumps as well as measuring station training of long jumpers in the HLT" (2014) and "kinematic analysis of the sprint step of the swing-pull technique and correlative relationships of sprint performance and vertical jumps in different performance gsklassen "(2018). As an author, he worked on the “Rowing Training Manual: Technology - Performance - Planning”.

Mattes and his employees developed methods of spotting and promoting talent in schools and developed a concept for involving schools, clubs and sports associations in talent development.

In 2011 Mattes became a member of the scientific advisory board of the Federal Institute for Sport Science , and he was also a member of the scientific advisory board of the German Rowing Association and the Institute for Game Analysis.
