It is too easy to denounce an exercise if an injury occurred during its execution. See Dangerous Exercises .
Biomechanical deficiencies are one of several causes of injury during exercise or activity.
Also see SAID Conditions . The information below is for precautionary measures only so mechanical deficiencies can be identified and corrected in attempt to prevent athletic injuries during exercise or physical activity. Only a qualified physician should diagnose and give prescription for an existing injury. In some circumstances, an attempt to correct a biomechanical deficiency may irritate the injury and prolong recovery, particularly if certain exercises are initiated too soon after an injury has occurred. Even after the underlying biomechanical deficiencies have been improved, the injury may require the attention of a physical therapist under the advise of a physician to restore total functionality.
