September Post

This month I found an interesting article, that is really informative, it deals with common injuries that soccer players get. It also went in depth on how to prevent them. For example the most common one is pulling a muscle. The article explains how coaches implement activities to prevent this. First tactic is to actually start jogging instead of starting off stretching. Your body needs to warm up before you start straining it. And, research has discovered, that stretching before a work out actually affects your muscles performance. So after you feel warmed up you can start sprinting, and then you can stretch. It is important for every coach to implement this into their practices, because injuries such as groin injuries, can leave a player injured for weeks. Sometimes player are out for months as well.
