My first few gave me calf and Achilles problems for a few years. I think it was the bike to run transition, and probably compounded by my old school 80rpm cadence. Triathlon made me a spinning convert.
I've managed an unresolved knee injury for past few years. Did IronMan Sweden last month: 18km into run, knee went like never before - felt like red-hot branding-iron searing underside of kneecap inflaming whole joint. (Walked 24km and finished race.)
i have been getting into triathlon recently, and always fixing little injuries. grounding is something i do that helps out a lot. i will also roll a golf ball with the bottom of both feet. there are quite a few tricks i have for fixing little issues. the ones you showed were great.
Great video. As a personal trainer with a specialism in corrective exercise, I use most of these moves with my clients who do endurance work including triathlons, as well as on myself!
ITBS - on one side I think it came from a mix of "running too far too soon after a marathon - not enough recovery therefore" and "at the same time running on pretty heavily diagonal street-surfaces" and therefore working one leg too much. Was horrible and frustrating and didn't leave for months even though I took weeks off of running. :) Some physiotherapy took it away immediately - should've considered this earlier. Working on my glutes as a try to solve the problem helped too I think. Feels like everything is "in better place" now. :)
Tibialis Anterior was damage pretty hart after my first 20 Weeks of Training... was going for 20k+ every sunday... did not listen to my Body... 10 Week pause, but managed to finish my first marathon after 66 weeks of beeing a runner
Am a competitive runner and new to triathlon. I try to stretch and do range of movement exercises each night, but in the midst of trying to fit all the training in weekly and around work and life etc, how often do you advise fitting in gym sessions and specific exercises like this?
Yep, I've had a couple of injuries! IT Band twice (same knee), which is now fixed by changing how I run... And at the moment I'm dealing with potential tendinitis in my outer hip/upper leg from running (caused probably by a muscle imbalance due to another strained muscle)... My exercises are loads of leg stretches, foam rolling of IT band, glutes, and hip flexor, and single leg squats (like the second exercise you show).
Did my first ironman in July with a condensed training plan of 4 months. Now I'm trying to shake tennis elbow, achilles tendonitis, and planter's fasciitis before the next season 😵
Started racing triathlon last year, only one olympic and a sprint which turned into a duathlon of experience. Underwent the whole long preseason winter months, and now, 1 week away from my first race of the season, I have gotten injured from the tibia/knee. Luckily for me it´s nothing serious, one month without running and its gone. But, lesson learnt. Be aware this things happen. As a newbie I did not know the importance of training moderately and not going hard all the time. Believe me, you´re gonna have to pay for it sooner or later. We are not pros and therefore should not train as hard or as much as they do. Do everything gradually and listen to your body, folks. I did not listen when they told me to and here I am, learning the hard way.
Tomas Azevedo definitely! Even though intensity plays a huge role, too. Going fast and short is quite more harmful than going long and slow, as said by many pros, who find the 10k way harder than a 21k
Biggest issue I have had is with planter fasciitis which took me out of running for 12-18months. My shoulder I did back in 2013 and has never been the same Currently dealing with a calf strain which I did 3 weeks ago
Hey I just picked up this muscle pain over one of my quadriceps.. I’m seeing sports physio and she has suggested to avoid running for sometime. Swim and bike ride is ok to do. She is giving me Dry Needle Therapy. If there something else too you expert would like me to follow and also how to avoid such incident in future. I feel low without training session
Right now I’m troubling with a groin injury for almost 4 months. I did my first ever triathlon in june witch was a 70.3, guess my body wasn’t ready for that. I should have done some of those exercises
I find my hip joint on my don leg tweeks far more than i would like.. When i get to about 8km on the run it hits.. Got my first GoTri this weekend! Watched so many vidoes feel like a pro...ha ha
heya, had a slight niggle in my ankle from previous sprained ankle, but can't always take time off my feet. I annoyingly don't have a wobble board at the gym I use, otherwise i would get one. (is it worth investing in one to build up my ankle strength again?) Cheers :)
Achilles tendinitis has been surfacing in my body. This also effects the knee on that side. My low back aches after races. I guess i need more core work. And i should probably not drink so much beer.
Hi, 15 weeks out from IM WALES. TRAINING BEEN GOING GOOD UNTILL I CAME OFF MY BIKE LAST WEEK, CUTS AND BRUISES WHICH I CAN DEAL WITH BUT PULLED SOMETHING IN MY CHEST. MAYBE A AMALL MUSCLE . PAIN WHEN INHALING HEAVILY. I AM ABLE TO RUN GENTLY AND BIKE . HAVENT TRIED SWIMMING WITH IT YET. DO I JUST REST OR PLOD ON AND TAKE THE PSIN ETC ?
Hello, I'm very used to make some ankle twist ( 2 this year left and right, 6 on seven years). so witch exercice would you recommend to fix it ? Thanks from Belgium !
I've recently started cycling and training for my first tri. Did a zone 2 workout yesterday for 80kms, for some reason any ride i do past 50kms my lower back hurts. any idea how to get this to go away?
Ur lower back should be able to take that. Rather if it feels bad u should work on ur back. Swimming and other core work will help. Baby ur back and it'll grow weaker.
What injuries have you experienced during your triathlon training? Let us know in the comments below 👇
ACL tear... just happened. I'm out till Februray.
ITB issues bilaterally!

anterior tibial tendonitis (a light one, tho)... just recovered after 2 months

Had surgery today for plica syndrome in the knee. Do take injury prevention seriously. I definitely will in the future :)

ITBS - on one side

Shin splints! Started doing resistance band work so hopefully that helps!
Well, did it?
@@user-qy8ph8tf3d need to strengthen calves and gradual progressive running program
Great video and right on time. Thank you.

Even pros had to build up their work load. This can take a year or more until you are ready to put 25 hours per week.

Cool pain cave Mark
Biggest issue I have had is with planter fasciitis which took me out of running for 12-18months.
My shoulder I did back in 2013 and has never been the same
Currently dealing with a calf strain which I did 3 weeks ago
i'm actually dealing with one right now. it is a problem in the knee, something connected to the "runners knee" tendon.
Hello, great video, keep up the good work.
Any advice on building up on knee strength would be great.
Thanks Bo)
Big Dazz butt exercises, sounds dum. But my physio gave me some, and in about 2 months it's gone.
Hi. I have no injuries but I run at my 61 years and want to keep it safe and enjoyable
Shin splints and foot/ankle problems. Could you show some excercises for foot strengthening?
Look up Gwen Jorgensen video on same with theraband

I feel low without training session
When do u recommend doing these exercises? After or before training??
Instead of: for best and reliable results.
Build it into your training week
Okeey thanks to both
Any time: strength exercises, core routines, and recovery are part of the training.
Do it when ur not already sore and a decent amount of time away from a hard workout but can be close to an easy one
Right now I’m troubling with a groin injury for almost 4 months. I did my first ever triathlon in june witch was a 70.3, guess my body wasn’t ready for that. I should have done some of those exercises

I have had runners knee and a calf injury
Keep your eyes out for a video on this very soon!
Chronic calf problems, strains, tears and swim cramps, finally pinned down to weak hamstrings.😎
ITB knee pain. shoulders pain from swimming
heya,
had a slight niggle in my ankle from previous sprained ankle, but can't always take time off my feet.
I annoyingly don't have a wobble board at the gym I use, otherwise i would get one. (is it worth investing in one to build up my ankle strength again?)

Hamstring tendinitis! Any help would be amazing!

My IT band in left leg is a trouble zone … not sure what do i do about it

Thanks from Belgium !
Theraband, tie it round ur foot and to something solid and move ur foot against the resistance. And stop running trails! 😉
Does pulling a muscles in your leg while failing to make a flip turn count? Three weeks in rehab and counting ☹️
ITBS
I've recently started cycling and training for my first tri.
Did a zone 2 workout yesterday for 80kms, for some reason any ride i do past 50kms my lower back hurts.
any idea how to get this to go away?
Not really not if you are sitting in that position for that long just increase your flexibility maybe
2:15- putt it?
Pause, buy theraband, continue watching
1st comment!

Knee tendinitis, two years in a row: right then left... I guess I was doing something wrong.
I've worn my knee out...
Some would say your bend over barbell raise exercise is not good for the lower back.
Ur lower back should be able to take that. Rather if it feels bad u should work on ur back. Swimming and other core work will help. Baby ur back and it'll grow weaker.

IT Band has been the most annoying one... Probably caused by poor running form and weak hip muscles/abs.
