Elite athletes are competing for longer seasons, training more hours, and taking less time off. This schedule may predispose the elite athlete to overuse injuries. When an injury occurs, aquatic-based rehabilitation may expedite the recovery process, as effective cardiovascular and musculoskeletal training may be accomplished by aquatic exercise. The pool may be used both during rehabilitation and postrecovery as an adjunctive tool. Knowledge of the unique physical properties of water, as well as the physiological responses to immersion both at rest and during exercise, will aid the physical therapist when designing a rehabilitation or training program for the athlete. Understanding the principles of movement in water will provide a foundation for creative use of water's unique properties.
The sport of triathlon is a rapidly growing arena for athletic competition and training. Men and women of various fitness backgrounds have become involved in this sport that involves the disciplines of swimming, cycling, and running. Training for multiple sports has the advantages of providing the athlete with a variety of means of maintaining fitness in the event of an injury. On the other hand, multisport training may also contribute to a special category of injuries, those related to the cumulative effects of cross-training. The purpose of this paper is to provide a review of the literature regarding triathlon training and injuries. A survey of a local triathlon club regarding the incidence of injuries is presented, and comparisons are made with previously published surveys. Finally, this paper attempts to outline the training conditions of the triathlete and to provide readers with strategies for injury management.
