How To Fall Backwards (Safely)

 

Falling backwards can result in serious injury if you don't know what you're doing. To protect your head, make sure you keep your chin tucked and try to fall in a way that keeps your head away from the ground. Falling diagonally helps accomplish this. Rotate your body to dissipate the impact of your fall to a larger surface area. Make sure to use your arm and hand to break the fall.

Exercises to strengthen your upper body and lower will help you fall without injury. Be sure to build up enough strength and stability so you can absorb impact without serious injury.

How To Fall Forwards Safely (without Breaking Your Neck)

 

If you build strength in your arms, shoulders, and chest, you'll be able to fall forward more safely. The key is to be able to catch the weight of your body in a push-up.

A Big Hip Impingement Scam - The Chinese Lie on FAI

 

In Zhu, et al. "Conservative therapy versus arthroscopic surgery of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAI): a systematic review and meta-analysis" researchers use statistical tricks to make surgery for femoroacetabular impingement seem better than nonsurgical treatment. When you look closer, however, you'll discover that the paper is built on shoddy statistical analysis and fundamental mistakes that the researchers and the journal editors should have caught.
