Overuse Sports Injuries Many, if not most, athletes push their bodies to (and sometimes beyond) the limits of strength and endurance. It's an axiom of sports medicine that the weakest link in your body's "kinetic chain" - the musculoskeletal movement system linking joints, limbs, and the trunk - will be the first to fatigue and experience pain and injury. At SPORTFIT, we take a holistic approach to your body - we assess your strength, endurance, flexibility, and dynamic movement patterns - to uncover the root causes of your chronic or recurring sports injuries. Then we develop a program to balance your body, eliminate musculoskeletal pain, and prevent recurrence of the same problem. Of course, our training programs can help you prevent overuse injuries before they happen, too!
Common Sports Overuse Injuries ♦ Low back pain ♦ Shoulder and rotator cuff pain ♦ Hip pain or hamstring soreness ♦ "Tennis" elbow pain ♦ Knee pain or instability ♦ Groin pain
