“It seems paradoxical that in our modern world where knowledge is theoretically increasing, we are failing miserably when it comes to protecting the health of our athletes.” –Y. Johnson
The third chapter of The Manual (CVASP, 2016), written by Yosef Johnson (Owner/Ultimate Athlete Concepts), highlights the causes; and provides solutions to the most common injuries in sports as a result of misuse or neglect in major areas of performance (malnutrition, overuse, sleep deprivation, etc.). Found in this chapter are recommendations based in practice, not theory. Most of the information presented is common sense, but in Yosef’s experience he has found these topics commonly overlooked at all level of sports. The “real world” solutions’ provided are what I like most about this chapter, because they are very thorough. Any coach who is looking to increase the performance of their athletes and most importantly reduce injuries should read this chapter.
