Exercise-Related Injuries: Understanding the Risks and Prevention

Physical activity can sometimes lead to injuries affecting muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints. Whether you're weightlifting, playing sports, or simply engaging in general fitness, common conditions include back strains, shoulder injuries (impingement or rotator cuff tears), bicep strains, knee issues (like patellar tendonitis or meniscus tears), and even Achilles tendon injuries. These problems typically result from improper technique, overuse, excessive loading, inadequate warm-up, and fatigue.
