January is here. Resolutions are in progress: the gym is packed, and everyone’s working on their fitness goals. Perhaps unsurprisingly, we often see quite a lot of workout-newbie injuries this time of year. Use these tips to prevent common beginner’s workout injuries and keep your fitness progress on track well into the New Year.
The truth is, most New Year’s resolutions go off track, but not because we just give up. Many fitness resolutions go off track because we get disrupted by an external factor like a muscle pull, a sprained ankle, or a sore knee.
But there are simple ways to prevent common beginner’s workout injuries and protect your mobility and your health. Like any successful goal, the key to hitting your fitness milestones is in planning and taking the right steps to set yourself up for success.
PREVENT COMMON BEGINNERS WORKOUT INJURIES WITH THESE IMPORTANT STEPS
1. VISIT YOUR DOCTOR FIRST
2. GET PROPER SHOES AND EQUIPMENT
3. FOLLOW TRAINING TIPS
4. DON’T FORGET TO WARM UP AND COOL DOWN
5. SLOWLY RAMP UP AND TAKE BREAKS
6. CROSS-TRAIN TO AVOID OVERUSE INJURIES
7. NOURISH AND CARE FOR YOUR BODY
8. KNOW YOUR LIMITS (AND DON’T PUSH THEM)
If you want to keep your New Year’s resolution to get in shape, pace yourself. Avoid common beginner’s workout injuries by starting slow and building up your stamina.
