5 Ways to Prepare for your Sports Season

Many sports injuries are a result of our bodies not having enough strength, endurance, co-ordination or mobility to cope with the activities and sports we participate in.

1 - Adequate Strength:

Determine areas you need to be strong for your sport and build your training towards these.

2 - Adequate flexibility:

Movements in sport often require you to go to the end of range.

3 - Adequate endurance:

Overuse injuries are often causedby loading the body under fatigue.

4 - Good Core Strength:

A strong core is essential for all sports, for back health and provide a stable base for your body to perform.

5 - Adequate Proprioception, balance and coordination:

These are important in all sports, to improve skills and ensure correct biomechanics.
