Worse still, do you find that you are constantly getting a recurrence of an old injury just as you think you are fully fit? It's a problem that strikes many, from professional athletes to recreational exercisers. This first volume in the Injury Prevention and Movement Control series gives a fresh insight into the possible causes of such imbalances and the precision and focus required to achieve true movement control. Stressing the importance of appropriately aligning the mind (software) with the body (hardware), Lincoln Blandford and the Performance Matrix team highlight basic strategies to reduce the risk of injury and become more aware of the independent movements of the body. All exercisers will find important topics to consider from this scientifically supported, practical and easily accessible guide, leading to reductions in injury and greater movement control.

Book excerpt: In the second volume of Lincoln Blandford's Injury prevention and movement control range, Lincoln again pursues the desirable goal of remaining injury free through the consideration of movement quality. Injuries, although often perceived as inevitable for the active, each have a root cause. If the influence of these causes can be limited, injury risk is reduced. In this volume Lincoln applies the importance of movement control into a practical setting, in particular its effect on warm-ups, flexibility and resistance training. If you really want to know how to avoid injuries, then unquestionably, this is the book for you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Injuries are the leading cause of death and disability among people under age 35 in the United States. Despite great strides in injury prevention over the decades, injuries result in 150,000 deaths, 2.6 million hospitalizations, and 36 million visits to the emergency room each year. Reducing the Burden of Injury describes the cost and magnitude of the injury problem in America and looks critically at the current response by the public and private sectors, including: Data and surveillance needs. Research priorities. Trauma care systems development. Infrastructure support, including training for injury professionals. Firearm safety. Coordination among federal agencies. The authors define the field of injury and establish boundaries for the field regarding intentional injuries. This book highlights the crosscutting nature of the injury field, identifies opportunities to leverage resources and expertise of the numerous parties involved, and discusses issues regarding leadership at the federal level.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World-class rehabilitation of the injured athlete integrates best practice in sports medicine and physical therapy with training and conditioning techniques based on cutting-edge sports science. In this ground-breaking new book, leading sports injury and rehabilitation professionals, strength and conditioning coaches, biomechanists and sport scientists show how this integrated model works across the spectrum of athlete care. In every chapter, there is a sharp focus on the return to performance, rather than just a return to play. The book introduces evidence-based best practice in all the core areas of sports injury risk management and rehabilitation, including: performance frameworks for medical and injury screening; the science of pain and the psychology of injury and rehabilitation; developing core stability and flexibility; performance retraining of muscle, tendon and bone injuries; recovery from training and rehabilitation; end-stage rehabilitation, testing and training for a return to performance. Every chapter offers a masterclass from a range of elite sport professionals, containing best practice protocols, procedures and specimen programmes designed for high performance. No other book examines rehabilitation in such detail from a high performance standpoint. Sports Injury Prevention and Rehabilitation is essential reading for any course in sports medicine and rehabilitation, strength and conditioning, sports science, and for any clinician, coach or high performance professional working to prevent or rehabilitate sports injuries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Stability, Sport, and Performance Movement, renowned physiotherapist and performance consultant Joanne Elphinston teaches that sporting technique is rooted in movement efficiency, stability, symmetry, and balance. These elements work together to ensure that physical restrictions and inefficient muscle recruitment patterns don’t inhibit technical movement goals. The right muscles firing at the right time, and in the right sequence, can help athletes achieve their full physical potential. Elphinston provides clear explanations using applied sports examples, shows how to evaluate movement accurately, and provides a detailed method for improving performance. Filled with Performance Movement guides readers through an approach that has been used with international-level athletes in every sport. A major focus is on injury prevention. Athletes sustain injuries and want to know why they have them and how to prevent them. Sports medicine professionals need to know how to relate their rehabilitation back to sports-specific movement, and coaches need to understand the relationship between injury prevention and performance. This practical guide presents new ways to understand stability as it pertains to injury prevention in sport, bridging the gap between sports science and sports medicine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Injury is a public health problem whose toll is unacceptable," claims this book from the Committee on Trauma Research. Although injuries kill more Americans from 1 to 34 years old than all diseases combined, little is spent on prevention and treatment research. In addition, between $75 billion and $100 billion each year is spent on injury-related health costs. Not only does the book provide a comprehensive survey of what is known about injuries, it suggests there is a vast need to know more. Injury in America traces findings on the epidemiology of injuries, prevention of injuries, injury biomechanics and the prevention of impact injury, treatment, rehabilitation, and administration of injury research.

Eighteen Division III collegiate track athletes (13 males and 5 females; age= 19.5+/-1.3years, height= 181.1+/-9.9cm, mass = 77.7+/-15.5kg) volunteered for the study, and were randomly assigned to the control (n=10) or experimental group (n=8). The experiemental group received a corrective exercise program over the eight week period. All subjects were tested at the baseline, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks. A repeated mesuares ANOVA was utilized to detect differences in FMS scores among groups (control, experimental) and times (baseline, week 4, week 8). There was a significant effect of time (p

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In every sport, there are athletes who represent true technical excellence. Their movement seems effortless and efficient: they create and control forces in the most effective way. Functional force management, the foundation for effective sporting movement and injury resistance, results from the integration of stability, mobility, coordination and balance. These elements combine to prevent the physical restrictions, imbalances and inefficient muscle recruitment patterns which can block athletes from meeting their movement goals. The right muscles firing at the right time and in the right sequence can enable athletes to achieve their full physical potential. This book is full of color photographs and images to illustrate the techniques and theories involved, Stability, Sport, and Performance Movement introduces functional stability principles as they apply to sporting movement. A comprehensive chapter on movement testing is followed with four chapters of integrated exercise techniques, which clearly demonstrate form and progression from early activation through to higher-level neuromuscular drills. Programs and clinical examples help the reader to appreciate the application of this approach across a variety of sports. It is an approach that has been used with international level athletes in disciplines as diverse as swimming, badminton, gymnastics, karate, cycling, weight lifting, basketball, athletics, snow sports, football, golf, equestrian sports, and tennis. Effective movement starts with great foundation, and these are applicable and relevant across all age groups and ability levels, from beginners through to veterans.
