Volume 4 - Issue 3

December 2015
In the final issue of 2015, Welsh rugby captain Sam Warburton tells us why injury prevention training is so important in a high-impact sport. Topics covered include iliac artery endofibrosis, rehabilitation of fibular collateral ligament injuries and effort thrombosis in the subclavian vein. There are tips on how to optimise performance following travel and how to keep athletes infection-free. Our Healthy Lifestyle article asks if altitude training is an effective treatment for obesity, while a fascinating letter from Japan looks at injuries in Sumo Wrestling.
