What causes micro-trauma?
Poor bio-mechanics can cause micro-trauma because, it refers to movement mistakes in which the body compensates and uses sub-optimal joint alignment, muscle coordination, and posture. These mistakes eventually manifest as fatigue and appear when the fundamentals of conditioning and technique are not observed. Because these tiny errors often don’t hurt performance, the athlete is usually not aware of the problem. Overtraining can also cause micro-trauma because doing too much of either the right thing or the wrong thing is a loss of perspective.
