Furthermore, the findings suggest that novice runners may benefit the most out of preventive interventions for RRI.

The intrinsic factors are those connected to the body and include biomechanical and anatomic abnormalities, flexibility, injury history, anthropometric characteristics, bone density, body composition and cardiovascular conditioning [5][6][7][8] . Thus, running either amateur or professional, involves musculoskeletal injuries risk.…”
