Prevention of injuries can be achieved by reducing risk factors, and by following appropriate steps to benefit and strengthen the body.
There are a variety of ways to prevent injuries. They include:
Understanding the body's capabilities and limitations
Working within ones’ anatomical
structure and through the maintenance of correct alignment reduces the risk
factors involved with injury.
Maintaining the body
By conditioning the body
effectively, injuries can be avoided. By developing strength, flexibility,
cardiovascular endurance and adjunctive training (e.g. swimming, cycling) along
with maintaining a balanced diet can minimise the risk of
injury.
