Risks of several traumas are the consequences of an intensive sports practice without respecting the elementary rules.It is necessary to know that repetitions of movements which are not carried out properly according to the muscles and tendons cause chronic pains which are difficult to cure.
If trauma and inflammation in the muscles recur frequently, you must realise that there is something wrong with the way you train.This is most often the case with some exercisers who have no specific goals, who are experimenting with sport or who are overdoing it.The pain is most often in the elbows, knees and shoulders.
What is important to remember is that in the face of these various excesses and without control, the body feels attacked, hence the appearance of various inflammations or joint blockages.
What to do to avoid tendonitis in bodybuilding
When it comes to the field of physical activities, power never comes first, control is needed.The game is not to perform a lot of exercises in a given time frame, but rather to perform the right movements to achieve the goal set beforehand.Biomechanics allows you to perform exercises in a rigorous manner.Thanks to this science, you will be able to know and understand the different applications to be made when practising a particular activity.You need to know which muscles to work, which extensions you can do and which muscle interventions you need to do for better control.This allows you to easily reach your goal while reducing the risk of injury.
It should also be noted that during the concentric and eccentric phases, the angle of work and the speed of execution must be precise.But before all this, a warm-up session is necessary to inform the body of the next challenge it will perform.Exercises that warn the brain and heart about the intensity of the upcoming practices.Finally, don't hesitate to end your session with stretching to ensure maintenance and improvement of muscle mobility.
By focusing on the control and quality of the movements, you can avoid mistakes or bad postures.Various ailments can occur as a result of poorly executed repetitive exercises, incorrect postures or inappropriate gestures such as joint dysfunction or poor nerve supply.
Beware of muscle pain
Practising sports is a way to feel good about yourself, however, incorrect postures can stop you in your tracks.In this case, learn to understand your body to avoid pain or injuries that are difficult to heal.
When working your muscles:
- Pay attention to the different little aches and pains that presage traumas
- Pay attention to the movements that cause your aches
- Avoid continuing to do exercises when you feel pain
- Take a break when you feel pain
- Consult a health professional when pain persists.
Tips for healthy and successful sports
During your sports activities, always remember that it is by progressing that you can achieve your goals.Here are some tips that can help you.
- Know your body, your limits and adopt exercises that suit your state of mind as well as your age.Don't underestimate or even overestimate your muscular capacity.The game is to progress little by little without ever forcing the muscles and the body.
- Be yourself with your abilities and skills.It is not beneficial for you to compare yourself with others or to do more than your neighbours.You don't know them and what they are capable of, so avoid lifting more weight to impress them.You can develop and become strong over time, session by session.By increasing your practice gradually, while being aware of biomechanics and your physical integrity, you can achieve your goal.Always keep control of all your movements and postures according to you, as each workout is unique.Everyone is different, so everyone should have their own exercises.
- Listen to your body to find out if it is fit for exercise or not.Exercising when you are stressed or tired will only traumatise your body and not benefit it.
