Book Review of prevention and care of athletic injuries

1 purpose of myself having the idea to go through this book was because developing a type of injury/pain in the right heal of my foot ,after using type barefoot shoes for first time trying them seriously for a period of three months writing this - where I was trying running a certain distance using these type of cheap shoes every day - where.

could be explanation why I developed an injury - cos not giving myself necessary time or adaptation period to transition to barefoot shoes.

Then a second reason for going through this book would be - holistically feel like I'm kind of person who just hasn't always ever best payed attention to my body or bones/joints, have a background where I have blood flow problems from having "Raynaud's syndrome" due to toxicity/toxaemia with mercury heavy metal poisoning (AKA autism - which got symptoms after V@ccine).

Overall I thought the book was through , went in depth about certain topics such as warming up , other factors such a monitoring hydration, and factors such as sleep which have an impact in recovery/recuperation.

there were certain chapters which were less prevalent to myself such as protective gear, or gear for sports - because personally im not the kind of person who takes part in social sports groups due to being limited.

warming up and cool down - chapter giving recommendations how to warm up prepare for any time exercise - made me think that I actually have a habit not spending much time warming up for strength training I do after seeing types persons say you don't need to.

Over use, overload and overtraining" - was a chapter which caught my eye, because it was writing about scheduling for workouts - and is something which I feel like personally don't do perfectly, will have certain symptoms of soreness .

chapters "enhanced recovery " talking about types of other environmental/lifestyle factors which have effect and "nutrition's role" - talking how a natural diet is the best recovery tool,

Then the nine chapters after this - are Doug writing about how to approach recovery from being inured to fully healed.

Yeah just a quick book review

or further specific things:

-about barefoot shoes

-Example given - of type body builder who got results in increasing muscle size by increasing amount time sleeping

Q should I mention that I read from a digital version of the book?"
