Sprinting can also lead to injury for people with hyper mobility. They require good form like any intense exercise. I recommended sprints to my yoga instructor sister who is close to underweight and she quickly injured one of her knees. Now it’s not something I would recommend to untrained people or those who might have hypermobility. Walking up a steep hill is probably enough stimulus for most people.Sprints can be problematic if you’re overweight or untoned. High chance of injury, even when short. To be done properly long term they actually require a fair bit of before and after prep work, warm ups, slowly building the intensity, and then things like self massage afterwards.
They do feel amazing, but for many I think long slow walks is safer
