1. Protect yourself

 

According to a study at UNC at Chapel Hill, wearing custom-fitted mouth guards reduces the risk of injuries by as much as 82 percent. Plunk out the cash for a custom-fitted mouthguard, and it'll last for years, including your smile and teeth.

 

2. On bended knees

 

Almost 3 out of four ACL injury occurs when players are landing or turning. If your knees are bent instead of straight, the risk of injury is greatly reduced according to a report in the JAAOS (Journal of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons).

 

3. Always remember to Cooldown

 

Heatstroke is not something that can be easily cured like a headache. To avoid it, stay cool and hydrated. Be sure the combined temp an humidity is less than 160. This is according to Dr. Dave Janda of the IPSM.

 

 

4. Control your cardio carefully

 

If getting huge is your goal, then throttle back on your cardio workouts, says LaCerte—chances are, you'll be burning far too many calories. So what should you do if you still want to get in some cardio? LaCerte says, "a light jog a few days per week for 20 minutes is adequate." If you're aiming to burn fat, of course, then focus on getting enough protein every day (usually one gram of protein per pound of ideal body weight), while still keeping your overall caloric intake low.

 

5. Do it the right way

 

Bad technique is just as bad as, well, bad equipment. Seek advice from pros and trainer. This advice is invaluable to your exercises or training.

 

6. Go in all directions

 

If you're playing or training in multiple directions, your warm-up should also. Move sideways, backward, forward, and all the motions you might be doing. This allows your body to be prepared.

 

7. Have yourself filmed

 

The camera doesn't lie. Show your video to a person well versed in your training, so he can give a critic of your fitness regimen.

 

 

8. Loosen the shoulders.

 

Even a slightly injured rotator cuff can shut down the function of a shoulder. You might want to include stretching to protect your rotator cuffs.

 

9. Take An early dip

 

Try to schedule your swimming sessions early. The lesser people in the pool means less of everything in the pool. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.

 

10. Stop and Go

 

If you play a sport that requires a full sprint, remember that a full sprint strains the lower body's muscles. To combat this, do stop-and-go exercises. For example, run 30 meters at about 80 percent of your effort, slow to a jog for five to 10 meters, then run again for another 30 meters. Repeat this process five times.

 

 

11. Smooth out your tendon

 

Inquire about ultrasound needle therapy. This procedure is minimally by using ultrasound to guide a needle. The needle smoothens the bone, breaks up calcifications, and fixes scar tissue. Thirteen out of twenty patients saw improvement, and the session takes only about 15 minutes of your time.

 

12. Heart Rate Monitor

 

If you already own a heart rate monitor or a fitness tracker, this is an excellent time to use it. If not, you may want to either go out and buy one or learn how to do it yourself. "Don't just exercise for a set amount of time and call it quits," Duffy says. "You need to bring the intensity with it, and a fitness tracker can help you get a sense of exactly how hard your heart is working."

 

13. Do off road running.

 

If the surface is unstable, it trains the ankles to be stable.

 

14. Know where you're going.

 

Whether it is biking or skiing, be sure to have a dry run down any path first. A lot of injuries can be avoided when you're familiar with the route taken. 

 

15. Train hard.

 

Anxiety reduces your peripheral vision by three degrees and slows the reaction time by almost 120 milliseconds, according to an article of the Journal of Sports Sciences. When the going gets difficult, the veteran athlete relies on skills they've trained for and practiced. It keeps them cooler under pressure, widening their vision so they can see react much faster.
