Injuries are a common occurrence in sports, but they don’t have to be if you properly take care of your body both before and after a workout.
In this episode of our #TeamBehindTheTeam series, Paddy McGuinness chats to Liverpool FC Academy’s Head of Physiotherapy, Paul Kelly, and Liverpool FC player, Diogo Jota, to understand the importance of preparing properly before a workout.
In this video, Paddy McGuinness talks to:
00:00 Paul Kelly, the Liverpool FC Academy’s Head of Physiotherapy, on the importance of physiotherapy for preventing injuries in the players
01:15 Paul Kelly about the warm-up exercises the players do before training
03:02 Liverpool FC player, Diogo Jota, on how physiotherapy plays a role in his training
03:31 Paul Kelly about what he recommends people to do at home before training
Physiotherapy is often seen as an afterthought, a way of helping someone deal with and rehabilitate their injury after it has happened, but it is also an important way of preventing future injuries especially for athletes and those who exercise daily. Going behind-the-scenes, Paddy tries out some of the exercises used to warm up the players as well as uncover some techniques that can be used by anyone at home.
