This topic seems somewhat timely given these particular injuries are normally load related.

As discussed in my previous blog about Load Management, the last 6 months have played havoc with people’s Acute Chronic Workload Ratio and children/adolescents are no exception.

The conditions I will be discussing are usually related to a big spike in activity which has been the case this year with most sporting organisations eager to recommence their seasons. These spikes will be somewhat amplified in young athletes who participate in multiple sports or who are already specialising in their chosen sport which can mean numerous training sessions/games per week.
