Abstract
Underwater treadmill (UTM) exercise is emerging as an innovative method of injury rehabilitation, but there has been little research on performance and injury prevention. The low-impact nature of UTM has been suggested to expedite recovery
while providing a cardiovascular training effect. Our aim was to test our hypothesis that UTM would decrease overuse symptoms and increase performance in high school cross country runners.
