110 Injury Protocols for Gymnastics
Manage episode 477538077 series 3498945
The first step in injury recovery is to rest so that the pain can dissipate.
Once my clients are pain free with daily activities, then I start rehab exercises.
Here are the key variables I keep in mind:
- Force
- Range of Motion
- Speed
Keep in mind that what causes pain sensation for one person may not cause pain for another even if they have a very similar injury.
Choose exercises that allow you to move with little to no pain, then progress methodically from there.
