Sudden, intense motion at regular, yet infrequent intervals and without any preparation between them seems like a great way to tear a ligament or tendon to this uneducated person.
Of course, I'm always thinking about the wonderful injuries that I can get being a weekend warrior, and that's going at it super hard at infrequent (yet regular) intervals.
- throwawaymsft 13y agoSure, for weightlifting, maybe -- but bodyweight exercises like squats and pushups? About the same chance as tearing something when picking up a phone you dropped on the floor. Like anything, just go at a reasonable pace. (I'm not a fitness expert, but exercises like this were the warmup in whatever class I would be in, no "preparation" to do a pushup or squat.)
- sukuriant 13y agoYou're not weightlifting when you tear an ACL skiing or snowboarding. It just seems like a poor idea.
