What are the two categories of risk factors for overuse injuries?

  1. Internal and external factors

  2. Physical and mental factors

  3. Intrinsic and extrinsic factors

  4. Active and passive factors

The correct answer is: Intrinsic and extrinsic factors

Intrinsic and extrinsic factors are the two categories of risk factors for overuse injuries. Intrinsic factors refer to those related to the individual, such as their physical characteristics, biomechanics, and overall health. Extrinsic factors, on the other hand, are related to the individual's environment and external factors, such as improper equipment, training methods, and playing surfaces. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not encompass the full range of risk factors for overuse injuries. While they may play a role, they do not accurately capture the two main categories. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
