Not All Athletes Wear Jerseys
The industrial worker and the professional athlete perform remarkably similar movements on a day-to-day basis. The repetitive physical exertions increase their risk of musculoskeletal disorders and illnesses. However, the preventive conditioning and medical support that these athletes receive aren’t limited to the world of professional sports. Industrial athletic trainers offer strategic injury prevention services and invaluable aid to the industrial workforce by conditioning them for the physical demands of their job tasks.
