Hey,
I’m 19 years old and been playing ball for pretty much 10 years now without working out or stretching or doing any prehab whatsoever. I feel like due to this one sided stress on my body I’ve gotten a lot of imbalances, which have resulted in a series of injuries like Patellar tendinitis, groin strains, shoulder problems, plantar fascia etc.
What are the root causes of these ? Overdeveloped quads + weak hams and glutes ? I’d love to get some advise on exercises and prehab + stretching I could do to bring my body back in balance.
Right now my left achilles tendon is really tight and inflamed. physiotherapists where I live could always ease the pain, but shortly after the next injury would occur.
