Pro Bowl games used to be full contact affairs. Then they slowly started removing some of the contact elements for injury concerns. It started to resemble non-contact football, especially across the line of scrimmage. So they decided to replace it with flag football and a skills competition. It's a thing that they did out of necessity, but just decided to go full on fun. I would embed this here, but NFL sharing rules refuse it.

Luckily for Los Angeles, they are one of the deepest teams in MLB. They have more than enough depth in their starting rotation with River Ryan and Gavin Stone set to return from their season-long injuries in the upcoming season, and have done well to reinforce their bullpen in the offseason with the addition of yet another All-Star in Edwin Diaz.

Barcelona have taken a proactive approach to protect one of their brightest young talents, Lamine Yamal, after concerns arose regarding his pubalgia discomfort. According to a report from SPORT, the club recently welcomed surgeon Ernest Schilders to their facilities to conduct a detailed evaluation of the winger's condition. Schilders, recognised worldwide as a leading specialist in hip and groin injuries, arrived in Barcelona during the early hours of November 10.

Footballers mainly tape their wrists to protect them from injury. Sports tape, which is wrapped around the wrist and sometimes fingers, provides support and stability to the wrist joints during a match - meaning that if a player has been tackled, faced a collision or a fall, the tape will form protection to their wrist. Goalkeepers use tape to protect their fingers and wrist under their gloves, but any outfield player is also permitted to do so.

Plank. Chaturanga. Downward-Facing Dog. Crow. Handstand. What do all of these very different yoga poses have in common? Each of them requires wrist extension, in which the backs of the hands are drawn toward the forearms as if you're signalling "Stop!" We constantly extend and bear weight on extended wrists in yoga, particularly in vinyasa classes. The aching you might feel in your wrists after leaving class? That's often the result of overworking the wrist extensors.

Researchers from the Royal Veterinary College have now revealed which breeds are the most likely to suffer one of these nasty injuries. Boxers come in at the top of the list, with these large dogs being 3.6 times more likely to hurt their tails than mixed-breed dogs. The English Springer Spaniel comes in second (2.46 times more likely), followed by the Cocker Spaniel (1.86 times).

Cal State Fullerton's women's soccer coach is pushing for more college sports teams to implement helmet rules for athletes on e-bikes and e-scooters after a box truck hit and seriously injured two of his players who were riding e-scooters in September.

For the majority of travelers, though, flying is a scrunched (and increasingly shrinking) torment that makes it impossible to fall asleep, exacerbates persistent back pain, or generally leaves them feeling sore and sour. That's too bad - especially if you're en route to a vacation with lots of walking. Or, god forbid, if you're an amateur athlete headed for a big event like a marathon or triathlon.

Every so often, when I get into a groove and push the miles or intensity a little too hard, my shins let me know. That sharp, nagging discomfort tells me I've crossed the line into overtraining. These days, when I feel it start, I immediately back off fewer hills, easier cadence, maybe even an extra rest day. Within a few days, the pain usually eases up. It's a good reminder that recovery is part of training, not separate from it.

Many people mistakenly think they should curl into a ball for the brace position but this is not the safest way, said Zack D, who posted the viral video to YouTube. 'Instead, assume the brace position by leaning forward and covering your head,' he said. 'This position helps protect your vital organs and reduces the risk of head and neck injuries. 'By leaning forward, you also minimise the impact force on your spine, increasing your chances of survival during high-impact situations.'
