[quote=Anonymous][quote]No idea generally, but my 12 year old son was injured through over use. He practices with his travel team twice a week, his year round futsal team once a week, plus usually 1-2 games a week, and one session per week with his private trainer. On top of that, he is in a track club at school one day per week. He developed a stress fracture this year and it has been tough on him. He hates having to take a break from exercise.

Reading this, that is entirely too much. But I know it is difficult to see that when doing day to day life.

Yes, injury through overuse is very common. It does not have to be a stress fracture. It can be painful chronic tendinitis that is only healed with a long period of rest.[/quote]

Yeah, and the thing is he is very decent, but not great, at soccer.  However, he does really love exercise, and it truly has a positive effect on his behavior ( he has some behavioral disabilities).  But we are torn about whether he is overdoing it.  The issue is that when he doesn't get a ton of exercise, it leads to increased acting out at school and mean behavior towards his brother.[/quote]
