66.7%of all female sports catastrophic injuries!For high school girls and college women,cheerleading is far more dangerous than any other sport,according to a new report that adds several previously unreported cases of serious injuries to a growing list.High school cheerleading accounted for 65.1%of all catastrophic sports injuries among high school females over the past25years,according to an annual report released Monday by the National Center for Catastrophic Sports Injury Research.The new estimate is up from 55%in last years study.The researches say the true number of cheerleading injuries appears to be higher than they had previously thought.And these are not ankle sprains.The report counts fatal,disabling and serious injuries.The statistics are equally grim in college,where cheerleading accounted for 66.7%of all female sports catastrophic injuries,compared to the past estimate of 59.4%.The revised picture results from a new partnership between the sports injury center and the National Cheer Safety Foundation,a California-based not-for-profit body created to promote safety in cheerleading and collect data on injuries.The foundation provided the center with previously unreported data.The new data added 30 injury records from high schoolers and college students to the 112 in last years report.Catastrophic injuries to female athletes have increased over the years,since the first report was published in1982.

Ildiko Gaspar Figure Competitor and Actress "I was born in the South of Hungary and immigrated to New Zealand, before settling in Australia, where I have since been actively involved in sports such as athletics, gymnastics, and handball. I have been involved in weight training for the past 8 years. I generally follow a healthy diet and exercise regularly. I entered my first competition in 2003 in New Zealand, which was the South Island Champs, in the Open Class Physique where I placed 1st. I have also placed 2nd at the Nationals, and come first at both the 2007 Australia, Southern Hemisphere Championships in the Open Figure Tall, and the 2008 USA, California, Venice Muscle Beach, where I was also the Overall Figure Champion. My involvement with Bodybuilding is to practice a unique form of art as a way of self expression. Working out is also a physical outlet and time for me to replenish mentally. Some of my early inspirations were people who were pioneers who changed the "ordinary", individuals taking risks going against popular opinions and making a difference. Anyone is an inspiration, who is using sport or any other activity to improve their own, and other peoples lives. My motivation comes from evolving and projecting my genetic lineage into the future. I believe that the areas of emotional, mental and physical development and maturity are closely connected and should be nurtured simultaneously."
