Sports Wellness Programme : Post Review

Brian Sir & Girlene Mdm attended this informative talk and the following information is what Mdm noted down to share with all of us.

Exercise as prevention to musculoskeletal injuries

How common are injuries.
25% w injuries

Cause
17% Sedentary

Location?
23% knee
14% foot
10% back
6% shoulder
47% others

Things that contribute to injuries
-poor posture , static , dynamic
-muscle imbalance
-cardiovascular fitness
-poor eqpt, high heels


Balance posture
-allows wt of body to b evenly distributed thru it's joint
-each component of the body functions efficiency

Shoulder hip knee ankle joints vertically aligned with gravity line
Pelvis in neutral

creates abnormal loading forces on the joints, soft tissues, muscles
Overuse or overloading

In order to function optimally, the muscular system needs to have
-strength
-endurance
-flexibility
-coordination
-synergy

Cardiovascular fitness
- efficiency of delivering oxygen to heart

poor bal-> daily exercise-> abnormal loading n stress -> compensation -> joint n tissue strain-> pain -> poor bal

Chronic pain
Pain-> disuse -> decondition

Q&A
1. Why youngsters collapse after running
- generally exercise reduce heart attack risk, bcos after exercise, blood vessel unclogged
- health risk vs expose risk
- there is a special group of <35yrs who had genetic problem, thick heart. This group should not expose themselves at all.

2. Vitrases glucosamine
500mg x3
6months
Then rest 3 months "drug holiday"

3. Bone spur at the hip, how did it occur
Unlikely to occur at young age, so is probably of the impact, thigh bone hit the hip, can try physio, modify exercise to stop the trigger,
Surgery can at most recover 90% for youngster. But definitely not back to norm.
Bone structure posture can play a part. Over a period of time it can create pain, can it have other problem, other muscles problem could also help to give optimal movement.
Recurrence can b possible, unless u change your lifestyle.

Wef from Jan 07, all ladies are required to wear plain white T-shirt beneath the dobok. Failing which, STF may stop the ladies from taking part of the grading.

(Wearing of Club Jersey is highly encouraged to ensure that students, especially young kids, will be easily identified if lost during transit, as there will be a lot of movement to shift from one location to another. And, to ensure that the uniform will be kept clean on the grading day.)

Green belters & above are reminded to bring their shin, forearm, & groin guards to the grading.

For brown belters, you will be sent for grading provided that you have mastered all 4 patterns by 9 Jul 2011.

Poom/Black, you are highly encouraged to attend this grading as your assistance to ZEN TKD is required for the grading to go on smoothly. Please bring along your personal shin, forearm and groin guards.

STF: Courses / Seminars : Grading Preparation Workshop 12 Jun 2011 2-5.30pm

Date: 12 Jun 2011 Sunday
Time: 2-5.30pm
Venue: STF National Training Centre
Blk 80 Lorong Limau #04-191
Singapore 320080
On or before Sat 28 May 2011 - $30
On or before Tuesday 31 May 2011 - $40
On the spot registration - $50

The workshop is open to red, poom and black belt holders.

The primary objective of the workshop is to point out to participants their performance flaws and the areas they should work on from the examiners’ perspective. This will give the candidates a better chance of passing.

During the workshop, participants will be briefed on the grading guidelines and the expectations of the examiners.

Coaches may use the information acquired by their students at the workshop as a basis to guide them for their grading.

All candidates who have attended the workshop are reminded to submit a copy of the certificate of participation with their grading applications. For red (junior) and 1st poom candidates, a copy of the certificate should be attached to their grading cards. This is necessary for the examiners to give them special consideration, if required.

The registration form is attached.
