Exercise with an Injury When you get injured while exercising, you might think that exercise will be out of the question in the long term, and that you are doomed to gain weight and get out of shape. However, that doesn’t have to be the case! No matter what the degree of your exercise-related injury, you can continue to move the rest of your body, and reap the physical rewards of exercise!   When you have an exercise-related injury, the wisest thing to do is go to your doctor. Your doctor can determine if you are able to keep exercising through diagnosis, treatment, and assessment. Even if you are simply dealing with a nagging ache or pain, you should still consult your doctor, who can help prevent long-term or permanent injury. Once your injury is being treated properly, you and your doctor can determine the best types of exercise that you can do in order to stay in shape while not aggravation the injury. When considering whether you should continue exercising with an injury, above everything else, use your common sense. Be careful, and work around the injury, being careful not to put undo stress or strain on the hurt area. Also consider: Please listen to your doctor! The doctor can give you a list of appropriate exercises that can be done to promote both healing and fitness. Follow his/her advice in order to prevent further problems. Modify your workouts so that they do not include the injured region. For upper body injuries, avoid lifting weights, and concentrate on lower body activities. For lower body injuries, consider upper body exercises, or even doing exercises while seated. If the injury hurts, even if you are being careful to avoid stressing the area, stop exercising! Listen to your body; it’s trying to tell you something! By stopping, you will prevent further harm to the injury or other body parts. Never ignore increased pain, new aches, or swelling of any kind. Call your doctor! An injury doesn’t have to sideline you for good. It is possible to continue exercising, maintain your fitness levels, and heal properly at the same time. All it requires is a little common sense, and the willingness to consult your doctor and follow his or her advice!       Problems with too much exercise   What causes muscular soreness?   Workout total body for increased calorie burning & better results
