Nothing can end your workout routine quicker than an injury. For fitness enthusiasts, common injuries include ankle sprains, stress fractures, wrist injuries, patellofemoral syndrome, shin splints, lower back pain, rotator cuff injury, IT Band Syndrome, neck injury, and biceps tendinitis. Actions like not resting, not eating right, over doing your workouts, and using improper form are all ways you put your body at risk for an injury. If you do injure yourself, help your body recover by resting, icing the injury, using a compressing, and elevating the injury. Before starting your next workout, take time to research injury prevention so you continue your workout regimen with a lower chance of injury.
