Injuries.
The 10 keys to keeping your athlete healthy...

Like Steve and Kevin, I dont believe in the term

injuryprone.
Injuries are rarely flukes. There is always a reason whether it be poor mechanics, inappropriate
programming or loading, or an ineffective medical setup.
Blaming bad luck for injuries is a total cop-out.

1. Stress Management
People get hurt because their system is unable to cope
with the level of stress that they are getting exposed to.
People never get hurt by accident. Even when
something seems accidental, my belief is that the body
is smart and finds ways to protect itself from overload.

2. Multi-dimensionaility of Stress
Dont get trapped into thinking that training stress is the
only type of stress. I always talk to my athletes about the
bath tub with several taps coming into it. Each tap
represents a different stressor in your life: training;
relationships; money; car issues; travelling etc,. The bath
tub will over flow if all the taps are on. It is the same with
the body. It doesnt distinguish between stressors. So be
very aware of the whole picture around your athlete.

3. Inappropriate Training Loads

Your athletes will only get hurt because you expose them
to inappropriate training loads.

.....
If they have a lot of stress going in their life, adjust the
training load.
If their mechanics are poor
(until their mechanics improve of course).
If they have banged up tissue
If their joint system isnt functioning right on that dayIf they have had a long-haul flight two days before

.....
It doesnt mean less training.
It means using the training options you have in front of you
to make sure they survive that particular training day.
You have to accept that certain changes are long-term in
nature (mechanical, tissue, joint changes) so in the
shortterm
you have to be very smart in the training loads you
expose your athletes to whilst you work on resolving the
longer term issues.

4. Injuries Dont Happen in Isolation

As appealing as the black swan idea is; in my experience
it doesnt really fit the process of injury occurrence. I read
once that significant injuries can be like a light bulb going
out. With a light bulb you will always get signs that the
light bulb is about to go out. Small flickers happen before
the light eventually blows. It is the same with injuries.

..
There are a thousand different signals that the body is not
coping. Colds, cramps, ground contact quality changes
etc,. You just have to be observant enough to read the
signs. You also have to be emotionally removed to allow
yourself to accept the signs. Conformational bias and
denial can lead to you building a picture you want to see.
Dont be that guy.

5. Healthy Joint Function

In my experience if the joint system is not perfect then the
soft tissue will have to take up the slack. This is bad news.
This situation reminds me of the butterfly effect. Small
fractions away from optimal joint movement can lead to
massive demands placed on the soft tissue.

6. Quality of Soft-tissue
Work constantly on the quality and capacity of your joint
system and soft tissue. This is your insurance policy. We
are in the business of producing the largest possible forces
in the shortest possible times. This is hard and stressful
task. Overload will and needs to happen. But conditioned
tissue and joints will be able to deal with things much more
efficiently than banged up tissue and poor functioning
joints.

7. Good Mechanics
As above we are in the business of producing the largest
possible forces in the shortest possible times. Good
mechanics can help you optimise this. And will allow you to
be more efficient at doing this. So constantly work on the
technical aspects of your event. In the long run, the
improved efficiency will also allow you to achieve
significantly more training load by reducing the stress on
the body. And more training at the appropriate speeds will
make you run faster.

8. Balancing Long-term with Short-term Success

As a coach you have a fine line you need to walk between
short-term success and longer-term sustainability and
success. Short term success can be easily achieved with a
huge exposure to training load. This will bring with it many
injury issues, though.
..

..
Some people operate on the basis of the people who
survive and dont break are the ones that are going to be
successful. Or the season you get through and survive is
worth the ones that you dont. So as a coach you need to
decide your philosophy.
If you have a huge talent pool, then choosing the short term
strategy might be appropriate. In situations of smaller
talent reserves then you might need to get your tight rope
out and walk the line.

9. Team around the Team

Be very aware of the team you build around your athletes.
Our job is to stress and overload the athletes as much as
we can without breaking them. It is a very thin line we have
to tread. To help you tread this line you will need the
support of a very skilled and sensitive medical team. As a
coach take responsibility for establishing roles, creating
understanding and developing lines of communication with
your team. If problems arise your ability to manage them
effectively is completely dependent on the strength of the
team you have created, and the collaboration you have
encouraged.

10. Develop a Relationship

As a coach, be totally connected to your athletes. Tap into
their rhythms. Observe. Reflect. Be patient. Make smart
decisions. Make more smart decisions than you make bad
ones and you will have a chance.
