High prevalence of ankle, knee and low back problems in highly trained adolescent basketball players at the beginning of their competitive season
Background: Adolescent team sport athletes with high training volume and overscheduling have increased incidences of injuries (Osgood-Schlatter disease, low-back pain etc.) compared to their less active counterparts. These overuse injuries may begin to negatively affect young athletes' attitudes towards physical activity. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of low back, knee and ankle problems in young male basketball players.…
Objectively measured sedentary behaviour and moderate and vigorous physical activity in different school subjects
