Cross-train
Avoid overusing specific muscle groups by incorporating variety into your workout routine. This prevents overuse injuries like shin splints and tendinitis. For instance, alternate between working on your chest, running, and swimming on different days to engage various muscle sets and reduce strain on any single area. [3]
Know Your Trouble Spots
Tailor your workout to address specific problem areas while respecting your body’s limitations. If arthritis affects your knees, focus on exercises that build strength without causing discomfort. Consulting with your doctor ensures a personalized exercise plan that aligns with your health condition. [4]
