Has your child experienced injuries such as: chronic joint pain, stress fractures,
tendinitis, or bursitis? All are symptoms of overuse injuries. These injuries occur
when youth athletes want to ‘push through the pain’ rather than take needed rest.
Overuse injuries that were once not seen until college or professional age, are now
being seen as early as eight years old.
Physical activity is necessary for normal growth in children, however; when the
activity level becomes too intense or excessive tissue breakdown can actually
occur. The single largest factor to these overuse injuries in young athletes is more
intense, repetitive, and specialized training at younger ages. When children
participate in only one sport at young ages, their bodies can break down because
of a lack of variation in their movements. Done too early these children are often
more likely to experience overtraining and burnout.
Burnout is the physical or mental collapse caused by overwork or stress. It occurs
in stages that include: the athlete being placed in a situation that involves varying
demands, the demands are viewed as excessive, the athlete experiences
physiological responses, and varying burnout consequences and changes. Athletes
who experience burnout go through a variety of hormonal, physical, and
psychological changes. Some of these changes include decreased school/ sports
performance, chronic muscle or joint pain, personality changes, lack of enthusiasm,
increased injuries, illness, or infections.
Overuse injuries as well as burnout are happening more and more frequently in
school-aged children. To learn about these issues and more come to the free
seminar hosted by UFC exercise physiologist Lindsey Moroski on Monday,
September 18th
at 6:30PM in the University Conference Center. Registration is
recommended but not required. Register today by contacting the UFC Front Desk
via email or at (717)531-7075
Two hundred million people have osteoporosis worldwide and that number is expected
to continue its rise. The International Osteoporosis Foundation projects that the global
incidence of hip fracture will double by 2025. At least one study says hip fractures will
increase in men by 310% and 240% in women. Thus, there is a huge need to develop
preventative strategies.
Most people often think to avoid high volume, high intensity, high resistance activity in
middle aged adults. They understand the importance of exercise and its infinite health
benefits. However, the general public of middle aged adults believes avoiding vigorous
exercise and weight training is a way to avoid injury due to bone related risks. Recent
research is showing just the opposite may be true. One strategy currently being
studied is how stress on the bone is actually necessary in preventing bone density
loss/osteoporosis and even slowing the progression of osteoporosis-- the effects of
jumping exercises and weight lifting.
Dr. Pamela Hinton, an associate professor at the University of Missouri, who conducts
research on the impact of nutrition and physical activity on bone health, studied how
resistance and jump-training exercises affected the bone health for men ages 25 to 60
over a 12-month period. The results showed these exercises did more than just slow
the rate of bone loss. “We actually saw an increase in bone mass with either type of
exercise that was a very encouraging and exciting result,” Hinton said.
A study by other researchers published in January found that women between 25 and
50 who hopped at least 10 times twice a day, with 30 seconds between each hop,
significantly increased their hipbone density after four months. Another group of
subjects, who hopped 20 times daily, showed even greater gains. In studies in Japan,
having mice jump up and land 40 times during a week increased their bone density
significantly after 24 weeks, a gain they maintained by hopping up and down only
about 20 or 30 times each week after that.
So hop in place, squat and add a little hop. For more athletic individuals, pull out
those plyo jump boxes and jump off a box 15 inches or higher at your gym and jump
back up!
