Age and Muscle Injuries: Understanding the Growing Risk

As athletes age, does the risk of muscle injuries increase? 🤔🏃‍♂️ Unravel this question in our latest short, where we delve into the research linking age with the likelihood of muscle injuries. Find out how athletes over the age of 23, and particularly those over 25, face a significantly higher risk of muscle injuries compared to their younger counterparts. We also explore the theories behind this trend, including the potential impact of aging on muscle cross-sectional area and tension resistance. However, it's important to note the variability in the age groups studied and how this might influence the findings. Whether you're a sports professional, an athlete, or simply interested in the science of sports medicine, this video offers valuable insights into the complexities of muscle injury risks as we age.
