Questions and Answers

Match the following recommendations to prevent injuries to their description:

Regular strengthening and stretching exercises = Helps improve flexibility and strength Warm up and cool down = Prepares the body for exercise and aids in recovery after Stop exercising if you feel a sharp or sudden pain = Prevents further injury by listening to the body Tendonitis = Caused by overuse of tendons

Match the causes of tendonitis to their explanations:

Overuse of tendons = Leads to painful swelling and irritation Muscles overworked = Can result in tendonitis Muscles stretched too much = May irritate tendons Muscles stretched too quickly = Can lead to tendonitis

Match the following statements to their outcomes:

Regular strengthening and stretching exercises = Improves flexibility and reduces injury risk Warm up and cool down = Helps the body transition in and out of exercise Stop exercising if you feel a sharp or sudden pain = Allows the body to recover and avoid injury Overuse of tendons = Can lead to tendonitis

Match the actions to their purposes:

Regular strengthening exercises = Improves muscle strength Warm up = Gets the body ready for exercise Cool down = Helps the body recover after exercise Stop if there's sudden pain = Prevents worsening of potential injury Signup and view all the answers
