Summary
This completed study followed 274 young gymnasts over three years, checking their muscles, bones, tendons, and joints twice a year. The goal was to see how these tissues develop during adolescence and how that relates to injuries. Researchers used ultrasound and strength tests to measure changes, aiming to find patterns that could help prevent future injuries.
