Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise
![Page 2: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Why worry about injury?
According to the Center for Disease Control, each year about 3 million people visit the emergency room due to exercise related injuries.
One injury can make you at risk for more injuries later on.
Injuries can lead to time off work and other important events
Injuries can prevent you from staying active

Physical Activity Readiness
Before starting a new exercise routine answer these questions (Physical Activity Readiness Questionaire):1) Has your doctor ever said that you have a heart
condition and that you should only do physical activity recommended by a doctor?
2) Do you feel pain in your chest when you do physical activity?
3) In the past month, have you had chest pain when you were not doing physical activity?
4) Do you lose your balance because of dizziness or do you ever lose consciousness?
![Page 4: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Physical Activity Readiness
5) Do you have a bone or joint problem that could be made worse by a change in your physical activity?
6) Is your doctor currently prescribing drugs (for example, water pills) for your blood pressure or heart condition?
7) Do you know of any other reason you should not do physical activity?
![Page 5: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Physical Activity Readiness
If you answered YES to any of these questions, talk with your doctor before starting to increase your physical activity.
If you are older than 65 years, you should still talk to your doctor even if you did not answer YES to any of the questions.
Your doctor can help you create safe exercise guidelines and give you ideas of what you can or cannot do for exercise
![Page 6: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Start Gradually
One of the most effective ways to prevent injury when starting or changing an exercise routine is to start gradually.
Know your fitness level and do not attempt to exceed it.
Slowly increase the intensity and duration of your workouts.
![Page 7: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Start Gradually
Use the “talk test” to monitor how hard you are exercising During exercise, try talking to someone or recite the
“Pledge of Allegiance” You should be able to hold a conversation with
someone while exercising This indicates you are exercising at a “moderate”
intensity If you are unable to talk, you are most likely
exercising too hard, especially if you are just starting an exercise program
![Page 8: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Listen to Your Body
“No Pain, No Gain” is not a good motto!Pain is how your body tells you something is
wrongIf you start to experience aches or pain in
your joints or muscles, stop exercisingIf you are too sore or tired from a previous
workout, take the day off or reduce the intensity of your next workout
Rest is a very important part of injury prevention Be sure to have one or two days of rest from exercise
every week.
![Page 9: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Warm-Up
A good warm-up before exercise is very important to prevent injuries
Warming up has three purposes: Increase body temperature Increase heart rate and blood flow to muscles Increase flexibility for activity
A proper warm-up can also help reduce soreness after exercise
![Page 10: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Warm-Up
Warm-up Guidelines 5-10 minutes light exercise such as walking, jogging,
biking Slow and easy pace If doing an activity, do movements similar to what you
will be doing for exercise For example, if doing Zumba do some of the moves slowly
and lightly. If lifting weights, warm-up with light weights. You should start to break a sweat!
![Page 11: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Cool-Down
Doing a cool-down after your workout is also important
The cool-down helps return your body function back down to its normal resting level
A proper cool-down after exercise can help reduce the risk of lightheadedness or dizziness, abnormal heart rhythm, or muscular injuries.
![Page 12: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Cool-Down
Cool-down guidelines 5-10 minutes of light activity Stretching, especially focused on the muscle groups
used during exercise.
![Page 13: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Resistance Training
If you are only doing aerobic exercise, consider adding some resistance training (weight training)
Benefits of resistance training: Increased bone strength and density Increased size and strength of connective tissues such
as tendons and ligaments, This reduces risk of sprains and strains
Reduce risk of muscle injuryGaining strength is a very effective way to
reduce your risk of injury
![Page 14: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Hydration
Maintaining hydration before, during and after exercise is crucial for safe activity
Before exercise Drink 16-20 oz of water at least 4 hours before
exercise Drink 8-12 oz of water 10-14 minutes before exercise
During Exercise Drink 3-8 oz of water every 15-20 minutes when
exercising
![Page 15: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Environment
Exercise causes our bodies to produce heat, which must be given off, mostly through sweat.
In hot or humid environments, the body’s ability to regulate body temperature is diminished.
Use caution if conditions exceed 80° and 45% humidity
Wear white or light colors, fabric that wick sweat, and a hat
Allow up to two weeks for your body to acclimatize to exercise in the heat
![Page 16: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Environment
Exercise in extremely cold weather can also be dangerous
Cold weather puts you at risk for hypothermia or frostbite
Use caution when the temperature is below 40°DO NOT exercise outside if the windchill is below
-19°Wear several layers of light clothing, rather than
one heavy garmentCover your hands, feet, nose, and ears with
gloves and a hat.
![Page 17: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Equipment
Use shoes that are meant for the activity you are participating in Wear basketball shoes for basketball and running
shoes for runningMake sure your shoes fit wellFor sports, use proper equipment that is in
good conditionWear a helmet while bikingWear clothing that does not restrict
movement
![Page 18: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Injury Prevention Summary
Check with your doctor to make sure it is safe to exercise.
Start to exercise slowly and progress graduallyListen to your body!Always do a warm-up and cool-downStay hydratedGet proper restUse caution when exercise in very hot or cold
weatherUse proper shoes, clothing, and equipment

Types of Injuries
Acute Injuries Injuries that happen suddenly, for example an ankle
sprain from jumping and landing badly. These include sprains, strains, concussions, etc.
Chronic injuries Prolonged injuries that develop over time, usually as a
result of poor technique or overuse without enough rest These include injuries such as shin splints and tennis
elbow 50% of all sports and exercise related injuries are
overuse injuries These types of injuries are more likely to be seen in activities
such as aerobic exercise (running, walking, biking)
![Page 20: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What Do I Do if I Am Injured?
First, remain calm and assess your situationNext, determine if you need more assistance
or need to call 911Depending on the injury, you will take
different steps to treat the injury
![Page 21: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
How to Control Bleeding
Stop the blood flow by applying direct pressure to the wound
Use gauze if you have it, but a cloth will work If the blood soaks through the gauze, add
another layerNEVER TAKE OFF A LAYER OF GAUZE while
the injury is still bleeding. It may make the bleeding worse.
![Page 22: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Wound Care
Wounds can take longer to heal in people with diabetes
If you have a wound, first rinse the wound with waterDon’t use hydrogen peroxide, soap or iodine, you may
irritate the woundUse an antibiotic ointment and apply a sterile
bandage or band aidUse soap around the woundChange the bandage daily and inspect your wound
for signs of infectionDon’t let the wound dry out and keep it covered If the wound is not healing, contact your doctor
![Page 23: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Broken Bones
If you have broken a bone: Call 911 or go to the emergency room. Don’t try to straighten the extremity. Try not to move the extremity Put ice on the injury Elevate the extremity
![Page 24: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Head Injuries
If you fall and hit your head or collide with something, you may have a head injury
You may not bleed from your head, but if you do, stop the bleeding with the tips from the previous slide
Even if you do not bleed from the injury, you could still be seriously injured
![Page 25: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Signs of a Serious Head Injury
Watch for the following signs of serious head injury and get help right away if you or the person injured: Becomes very sleepy Behaves abnormally Develops a severe headache or a stiff neck Has unequal pupil size in the eyes Cannot move their arms or legs Loses consciousness even if for a few seconds Vomits more than once
![Page 26: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Diabetes and Exercising
CONSIDERATIONS
![Page 29: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Blood Sugar and Exercise
Exercising will lower your blood sugar by making your cells better at using insulin to take up sugar
Exercising will also make your cells take up blood sugar without using insulin
Over time, you may lower your A1C with regular exercise
![Page 30: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
What Does This Mean for Me?
Check your blood sugar before and after each time you exercise to understand how YOUR body reacts to exercise
Always be ready to treat low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) with a sports drink, or regular soda or a snack in case of emergency.
Call your doctor with any questions about starting a program
![Page 31: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
How Do I Know if I Have Low Blood Sugar?
Some signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia include: Shakiness Nervousness Sweating, chills, clamminess Confusion or delirium Rapid, fast heartbeat Lightheadedness or dizziness Nausea
![Page 32: MATT CURRIER, SPT, AND BRIANNA DEBIASI, SPT UIC DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY Injury Prevention and Safety in Exercise.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032600/56649dcf5503460f94ac46ee/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
