The sports industry is in the midst of a revolution. Every day we see athletes and teams from different sports overcoming their limits and setting new and challenging objectives.
However, the constant, increasing pressure to achieve can bring about an increase in injuries.
Within this context, the team physician becomes a crucial role with greater scope and complexity, creating a major need for specificity in terms of teaching and courses on the market.
Sports medicine professionals are key to the health of athletes at all levels as they are involved in the diagnosis and treatment of injuries and the prevention of pain, injuries, and poor habits.
In the Certificate in Team Sports Physician Fundamentals, Gil Rodas develops the essential concepts inherent to team sports medicine, including improvements in nutritional control, a deeper understanding of the physiology of effort to obtain better physical results, the establishment of therapeutic criteria for fast recovery, the detailed study of ergogenic aids before and after effort, and of course, an understanding of the serious issue of doping.
At the end of this certificate, you will be trained to make better decisions in the sport science environment, as applied to team sports.
