Message: [QUOTE="sun, post: 4804638, member: 11664"] Okay. I did see Liv doing a chin up in a video. But let me ask you thiis, is it always a good idea to jump up & down while holding a barbell full of weight like C. Williams was shown doing? Since when is a fitness instructor also a medical specialist? Do they recommend weight training based on the feedback of the athlete & how much pain & discomfort that they can endure? We already know that staff doesn't know all of the medical records & injury history of every UConn athelte, yet they're supposed to be able to recommend the maximum weights that can be ifted safely by each individual? I think that there's some gueswork & assumptions involved. Another question would be how closely are the athletes monitored & supervised while they're exercising? Who is watching to see that each & every one is doing everything properly & as recommended? Not that recommdations are always perfect.... I'm just opining that the system can be flawed by human error which we all know that humans are capable of making errors. The system may be flawed, the athletes may be flawed, every case is different & without blaming anybody. [/QUOTE]
