Swimming for better health and to avoid injuries

injuries No Comments »

Swimming is often touted as a great workout for all ages, offering benefits not only for the body, but also for the mind. As a form of exercise, swimming keeps your heart rate up and builds muscle strength. It also can be a great form of stress relief.

“Swimming is a wonderful sport. I definitely recommend swimming for people of all ages,” says Dr. Matthew Crowe, a Mayo Clinic orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine expert who spent many hours in the pool as a competitive swimmer in his youth.

“Swimming is easy on the joints, and it’s very good for both cardiac health and your core strength. And it also can give you really excellent strength around the shoulders, and hips and knees,” says Dr. Crowe.

While the benefits of swimming and aquatic exercise far outweigh the risks, injuries can occur, especially with competitive swimmers who often train upward of 20 hours a week.

Shoulder Pain When Swimming? | How To Avoid Swimmers Shoulder

injuries No Comments »

Your shoulders do a lot of the work in swimming, therefore itโ€™s no surprise that problems in the shoulder area are the most common injuries for swimmers. Weโ€™ll be covering the cause of swimmerโ€™s shoulder and more importantly how to solve and ultimately prevent it.

Swimmerโ€™s shoulder is one of those broad terms similar to runnerโ€™s knee. Broadly speaking itโ€™s a pain around the shoulder brought on by swimming.

As triathletes we donโ€™t do as many miles in the pool as swimmers but we still need to look after our shoulders.

Your shoulders do a lot of the work in swimming. They have a large range of movement and are put under significant force repetitively for every stroke of front crawl.

Therefore itโ€™s no surprise that problems in the shoulder area are the most common injuries for swimmers.

Heather will be covering the cause of swimmerโ€™s shoulder and more importantly how to solve and ultimately prevent it.

Overuse is the main cause of injuries. In cases of swimmers, overhead forward stroke can cause the most common injury in shoulders. Dr. Alejandro Centurion, Primary Care & Sports Medicine Physician with Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute, explains what freestyle stroke is.
