Personal trainers must be aware of the most common injuries that can occur in each activity in order to create their training programs tailored to each individual" 

Practicing sports is of fundamental value to maintain our physical conditions and our health. However, we must be aware that all sports must be performed following specific guidelines and considering individual physical characteristics in order to prevent possible injuries.

In fact, data show that in the United Kingdom, sports injuries account for 2% of recorded health emergencies. Specifically, in Premier League soccer, 10% of players suffer an injury during the season. An injured athlete is an important sporting and financial problem for a club. In the USA, there are some 2.6 million sports emergencies in subjects between 5 and 24 years of age, with a cost of more than 2 billion dollars. These figures show that sports injuries are not an isolated issue, but that it is necessary to take them into account and work on prevention in order to reduce these numbers.

In this context, and with the aim of ensuring that professionals in the field of sports are qualified to advise on training, avoiding injuries in athletes as far as possible, this program is designed to show the most common injuries that occur in sports practice, such as shoulder, arm, elbow, wrist, chest, back, hip, thigh, knee, ankle and foot injuries.

It should be taken into account that, depending on the type of sport performed, there is a greater prevalence of specific types of injury. It is therefore important to know the most frequent pathologies, which allows the personal trainer specialized in sports rehabilitation and functional recovery to plan a glossary of work programs from the beginning to the end of the process, so that they will be able to adapt this work to the individual and specific conditions of each person.

This is the most complete training a student can find to specialize in personal training. As it is an online program, the student is not constrained by fixed schedules or the need to move to another physical location, but rather, they can access the contents at any time of the day, allowing them to balance their professional or personal life with their academic life as they please.
