If you want to get ripped, then you should know that it is going to take a lot of hard work and determination. This is why it's important to consult your doctor before beginning any kind of strength-training regimen, so they can offer you tips on how to stay safe and evaluate you to make sure you're healthy enough for physical activity.
The National Collegiate Athletes Association (NCAA) recently implemented a rule that all Division I student athletes have to be screened for sickle cell trait (SCT), after a student died during a football practice from SCT complications. According to researchers, this step is not enough to keep young athletes safe and all athletes, not just those who are Division I, should be tested.
"The culture in sports to push ourselves dangerously beyond our limits is powerful," said researcher Beth Tarini, M.D., M.S. "Implementing policies to identify those at risk provides a false sense of security if we aren't diligent about monitoring and protecting the health and safety of our student-athletes."
This serves as an important reminder that anyone committed to physical exercise needs to be sure that they are staying safe as they get ripped.
