Dr. Allan Levy knows. As team doctor for the New York Giants
football team, he has treated every kind of sports injury there is,
from strains and sprains to more serious tears and fractures. In
Sports Injury Handbook, he shares his vast practical knowledge of
sports medicine with recreational athletes who want to keep in
shape, while minimizing aches, pains, and injuries. For ease of
use, the main part of the guide is organized by body part and
sport. To find out why, for example, your knee is sore and how to
treat it, simply turn to the knee chapter. Then learn how to avoid
further risk of knee injuries in sports-specific chapters on
aerobics, jogging, tennis, skiing, basketball, and many more.
Peppered with firsthand stories and anecdotes from professional
sports, the Sports Injury Handbook is an entertaining, informative
guide to the latest methods of injury prevention and treatment. In
it, you'll discover:
- The conditioning, nutrition, and strength training techniques
professional athletes use to stay in top physical shape
- Easy, step-by-step rehabilitative exercises you can perform at
home
- Special precautions for women, children, and older
athletes
- How to prevent or treat the most common injuries in more than
two dozen sports, including aerobics, baseball, basketball,
bowling, boxing, cycling, football, golf, gymnastics, hockey,
running, skiing, soccer, swimming, tennis, triathlon, volleyball,
walking, and wrestling
