Sometimes people train too hard, or push themselves too far which can result in damage or injury.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Switching between high-impact and low-impact exercises can give your body a chance to bounce back from the most intense sessions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Take for example a runner who had tried to compete in a 26.2 mile run but had failed twice due to pain from uterine prolapse until she underwent a hysterectomy and surgery to repair the damages.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

After recovery and feeling fine she thought to give it another shot and began to train hard which was tough and so was the race; at mile 13 she began to feel pain and pressure in her abdomen, but still managed to cross the finish line and complete her lifelong dream.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the days after the lower abdominal pressure did not stop, she had pushed her body too far. <\/span><\/p>\n

She was lucky to have no permanent damage to the surgical repairs from the previous year but was told going forward she was to only do low impact exercises with no running, no lifting heavy weights, and nothing strenuous. <\/span><\/p>\n

This was a setback to a person who loved running and how strong it made her feel who could now not do running of any kind, even at a slow pace for a short distances, so she stopped doing everything.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfortunately this experience is not unique, as many people are prescribed low impact exercise routines for a variety of reasons, it may be temporary or permanent due to injury, rehabilitation, recovery after surgery, or prevention of joint related pain, especially with age.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\t\n \n
