Whether you work out or go to the gym once a week, or on a daily basis, it’s most important to prevent injury during your routine. If you’ve ever heard a trainer commenting on form, proper form is especially important during exercise. Think about it, if you’ve strained your back while lifting something heavy, it’s because you weren’t practicing proper lifting form. Dr. James Huggins, Jr. of Carolina Chiropractic Center is here to guide you and help you avoid injury.
When we lift heavy objects, this causes the body to become misaligned and this puts stress on the tendons, muscles, and joints, putting them at risk for strains and sprains. Depending on which exercise you are doing at the time, the form may change, so it’s important to ask questions if you are struggling. Some tips for preventing injury include stretching regularly, don’t go too heavy, and stay grounded from your feet up.
