Fascial Fitness and Sport-Specific Injury Prevention with Baseline Mobility Training

The traditional approach to sports training often prioritizes muscular strength and cardiovascular fitness. However, recent research has highlighted the critical role of fascia in injury prevention and performance enhancement. Fascia, a connective tissue that permeates the body, provides support, protection, and enables movement.

The Fascial Connection to Sports Injuries

A significant number of sports injuries, particularly repetitive strain injuries, occur within the fascial system. Studies have shown that the collagenous tissues, a major component of fascia, can be less adaptable to stress compared to muscles or bones. This lack of adaptability can lead to injuries, especially when training regimens don't adequately address fascial health.
