Spring sports have begun! It is the time of year for track, baseball, lacrosse, and other sports. We want to offer some tips to avoiding injury this season
- Make sure to condition the body before you participate in sports. If you have been inactive for months, it is a good idea to condition your body
- Warm up before each practice and game or meet to prevent injuries.
- Drink plenty of fluids before, during, and after your games or practice. a dehydrated body is injury prone
- Eat a healthy balanced diet. Breakfast should be eaten daily but you should also avoid eating two to three hours before practice or a game.
- If not required, you should receive a physical before any sort of physical activity. Doctors can screen you for any potential future problems that may arise through participation.
