6 Helpful Exercise Modifications to Lower Your Injury Risk

Everyone knows that working out is good for them. But carrying more weight makes certain moves harder on the body – and riskier. 

The problem: Extra weight puts more stress on the joints, such as your knees or wrists, says Lisanne Cruz, MD, a rehabilitation medicine doctor at New York City’s Mount Sinai Hospital. That can raise your risk of a strained muscle, torn ligament, or other injury.

Don’t let that stop you. Modifications make most moves simpler to do, and safer. Here are six to try. 

Healthy Fact of the Day: Drinking water can boost your brain power! Staying hydrated helps maintain focus, improve memory, and boost mood. Even mild dehydration can make it harder to concentrate, so sipping on water throughout the day can help you stay sharp and energized.
