Abstract:
Physical therapists and injured athletes who visit the Duke’s Sports Medicine Clinic talk about the effects of the fitness revolution. Exercising and playing sports carries risks for injury as can a person’s gender, physical conditioning, body size, psychological makeup, intelligence, and sporting equipment. The biggest reason for the increase in injuries is that more people are participating in sports more frequently.
