Yoga for Footballers :

Though the most popular game is apparently a simple game but football's effect on knee are far from simple. Tears in the semi lunar cartilage are far more common in this than in any other sport. The knee is rotated outward with the additional strain of weight bearing. Add to this a sudden jerky movement and the torsional forces tear the meniscus. The tear can heal by fibrosis. If the tear is large the knee is prone to sudden locking, the most common complaint. The player tries to stretch the flexed leg and the movement is halted midway, suddenly and painfully due to the torn part of the cartilage getting jammed between the femur and the tibia as they glide over each other to complete the stretch of the knee. The cartilage can also become torn through its full length.

American Football

American football has a high propensity for injury. Players have permanently damaged themselves with transaction of the spinal cord. Strong concepts of safety have no doubt changed the face of the game but injuries still occur. Padding provided to all parts of the body is not the answer. A game should not result in recurrent injuries. Head on collisions have caused fractures of the cervical vertebra due to excessive loading on the column paraplegia. Injuries to other parts of the body also occur depending on the site of impact by the opponent.

Barring injuries, the main concern in this sport is one of exhaustion to the nervous system- to the senses. Inversions, standing inversions, seated forward bends, sputa virasana.

Viparita karani are all helpful to relieve strain in different parts of the body. Pranayam relieves the strain on the mind.
