At the end of this module; the students should be able to:
1. Identify the personal safety protocol to avoid dehydration, overexertion,
hypo- and hyperthermia during MVPA participation.
2. Determine steps to take or things to do in case of injuries or
emergencies.

To avoid the dangers posed by extreme cold, keep the following in mind:
Avoid excessively cold and windy weather.
Dress appropriately.
Watch your time.
Stop if you feel anything out of the ordinary.
Injuries are damaged tissues or organs which occur when it encounters trauma or
physical force.
Structure Function Acute Injury
Ligaments Stabilize joints Sprain – Overstretched
Tendons Attaches muscles to bones Strain–Excessive Stretching
Muscles Creates movements Strain
Bones Anchor for muscles Fracture – Breaks in the
continuity of the bone.
Joints Fulcrum for movement Dislocation – Bones that are
pushed out from their joint.
Chronic Injuries
Stress Fracture – occur among runners who train for long periods without
adequate rest periods. The repetitive workload creates micro-trauma.
Tendinopathy/Tendinitis – the most common overuse injury in sports involves
the muscle-tendon which usually due to muscle imbalance between muscle pairs.
Osteoarthritis – is the wear and tear of a joint that in severe cases, doctors may
recommend surgery to replace the joint.
Bursitis – the bursa is a sac-like musculoskeletal structure that provides support
and cushioning to the joint. It protects commonly used joints such as shoulders and
knees from repetitive mechanical stress. This injury is common in swimmers and
runners. The inflammation of the bursa interrupts the surrounding structures, causing
pain during movement.
Cause of Injury
Environmental/accidental injury
Overuse injuries
May also be classified as:
Internally Caused Injuries
Overuse injuries – caused by intense training.
Sudden injuries– caused instantly by actions such as overstretching, twisting or
turning.
Externally Caused Injuries
Impact injuries – impact from a sudden application of force.
Foul play injuries – caused by another player.
