• How does and athlete get to this level training ?
• What does the athlete do if they get injured ?
Rehabilitation principles
• Rehabilitation Follows many of the same principles
of training
• training dealing with strengthening normal tissues
( Nb holds true for athletes & normal population)
• Rehabilitation involves strengthening injured
tissue
Tissues and
Healing
• After injury – stages of healing
• Body does a lot of our work !!
• Thankfully it works to heal itself !
• Tissues have capacity for
strengthening with training
(Adaptation)
– They adapt to the loads placed on
them
– Science expanding knowledge
Increase intensity
session Longer
recovery required
Increase
Frequency
Reduced rest
tissue weakening

STRENGTH
Adaptation
progressive
overload = tissue
strengthens

Tissues and Loading
• Different tissues ADAPT and
HEAL differently
– Time scales
– Recovery times
• What is OPTIMAL loading for
strengthening tissues ?
• Ie how do you pitch the athlete’s
loading correctly
• Secret to good rehabilitation

athletes
