It is known that physical exercises are good for health. Nevertheless, injuries in sports happen.
MK Boxing Gym encourages you to be safe while practicing.
We want to share few strategies for preventing injuries.
It is proven that increased joint and muscular mobility and flexibility will dramatically reduce the potential risk of injury. A range of mobility exercises should be employed. Many people are now turning towards yoga, which is an extremely positive addition to their training regime.
In our turn, MK Boxing Gym provides Cross-conditioning classes that are one of the most popular in our gym. You can join it almost everyday.
The Cross-conditioning class is meant to get the blood pumping, it focuses on body weight exercises and explosive movements to minimize injury and maximize results.
The Conditioning classes are led by an instructor, and are offered at no additional fee.
Tight muscles, bruises, and soft-tissue damage are common side-effects of intense training. All these symptoms should get an appropriate treatment that will reduce muscular inflammation, preventing any further trauma. Massage therapy helps the recovery from these effects.
You may think that it’s not connected to your training, but it is.
The correct nutritional sources of proteins, carbohydrates and fats are the building blocks of every living tissue in the body. The correct nutrition feeds the blood, muscles and cells of the body, therefore keeping them healthy and functioning in an optimum manner. A healthy body is under less stress, therefore will recover and recharge, and ultimately be stronger and more stable, and able to cope with the demands of the training camp.
The relevant training needs to be employed both at the right time, and when the body is ready and able to cope with the demands of that specific exercise. Sometimes the body needs progression in areas that are weak, and perhaps more importantly regression in areas that are working too hard and being placed under strain.
Sometimes less is more. A fighter needs to rest and master the art of doing nothing to allow their body to recover.
