I know many female athletes, and one in particular who is prone to knee injury.
Reuters: Special warm-up prevents knee injury: U.S report
Women who completed the Prevent Injury and Enhance Performance, or PEP, program were 1.7 times less likely to have anterior cruciate ligament injuries, the researchers reported.
The program, a rigorous series of running, jumps and stretches, is neuromuscular and aimed at strengthening the muscles and ligaments in and around the knee.
