Prevention from Achilles tendon ruptures
To reduce your chance
of developing Achilles tendon problems, follow these tips:
1.
Stretch and strengthen calf muscles. Calf-strengthening
exercises can also help the muscle and tendon absorb more force and prevent
injury.
2.
Vary your exercises. Alternate high-impact sports, such as
running, with low-impact sports, such as walking, biking or swimming.
3.
Choose running surfaces carefully. Avoid or limit running
on hard or slippery surfaces.
4.
Increase training intensity slowly. Achilles tendon
injuries commonly occur after an abrupt increase in training intensity.
