How to protect your knees before, during and after playing basketball?

Today, I will tell you how to protect our knees before, during and after playing basketball.

Warm up dynamically before playing basketball and exercise leg muscles. Dynamic warm-up before playing basketball is very important, because our bones are protected by muscles. However, warm-up can fully activate our muscle activity, thus reducing the risk of injury while playing basketball. We can do the following exercises to fully warm ourselves up. In the first warm-up training, let our hands hold our knees to bend and stretch back and forth. It should be noted that the knee should not exceed the toe and the training speed should not be too fast. In the second warm-up training of lunge dribbling, we really lunge and bend our knees when dribbling with one hand. Pay attention to bend your knees about 90 degrees, pause for a while and practice on the other side.

In the process of playing basketball, we should pay attention to our movements to protect our knees. Note that when we dribble, don't let our feet get into the habit of figure-eight, because this action will cause great pressure on our knees when we accelerate the landing. Also, when we dribble through, don't bend our knees less than 90 degrees, because such bending will put a lot of pressure on our knees.

After we play basketball, we must stretch in time, otherwise it will cause tension in the thigh muscles, which will affect the knees. After we play basketball, we can do lunges and knees, let our hands hold our hind legs, and then slowly lift them until our heels touch our hips. Be careful. We feel the pull. Then we do a lunge, break our feet with our hands inward, and then rotate slightly to the outside of our thighs, so that we can feel the feeling of pulling.
