What are contraindications/precautions for muscle strains in the Hamstrings,
Quadriceps, and Adductors (groin)? Progam? - ANSWER-avoid returning to
full activities too quickly
- exercises for entire hip musculature that are pain free with a
concentric to eccentric focus

peroneus longus, flexor digitorum longus, flexor hallucis longus, tibialis
anterior, extensor digitorum longus, extensor hallucis longus
Ankle Sprains - Inversion v. Eversion? - ANSWER-inversion: more common
causeed by forceful inversion of foot that damages lateral collateral ligament
eversion: forceul eversion of the foot dmages deltoid ligament
Contraindications/precautions Ankle Sprain? Program? Exercises? - ANSWER-
1. caution with turning/twistin, avoid returning to full activity too quickly

ankle eversion with plantar flexion with Theraband
balance exercises on Bosu
Achilles Tendinopathy (Tendinitis and Tendinosis)
contraindications/precautions? Program? Exercises? - ANSWER-1. avoid
increasing intensity or duration too quickly, use caution with plyometric
exercises
2. stretch gasrocnemius-soleus complex, strengthen plantar flexors and anterior
calf muscles (dorsiflexors), eccentric training of plantar flexors, proprioception
and balance training
