@linneagonzales: 4 PRE-TRAINING EXERCISES TO HELP PREVENT INJURY: 🦴🏑💪🏼 Why would you want to activate your muscles before training? Well, think of your car on a cold day… if you want it to run/function properly you need to warm it up before you take it for a spin right?🚗🧊 The same applies for your BODY.🦵🏽 These activation exercises can help wake up your muscles before training to ensure they are firing correctly. Not only does this help improve your mind to muscle connection, but it also helps make sure you are recruiting other muscles properly which can help prevent injury. 🧠 THINK - we want BALANCED movement patterns to keep our body aligned and properly coordinated. This prevents overcompensation which in turn helps prevent injuries. Give these a try before your next workout & see how your body feels.🧠🏑❤️🔥 #fieldhockey #fieldhockeyplayer #fieldhockeylife #teamusa #proathlete #mindmuscleconnection #prehab #injuryprevention #athletemindset #athletetraining #coachingtips
