80% of my injuries occurred while sleeping, which seems very weird.
I knew someone who dislocated her shoulder often while sleeping. If I remember right, she's dislocated it 17 times or some ridiculous number.

This is specifically cardio. High intensity interval training can be safe, for example, air bike, battle ropes, etc. High intensity running does have higher injury risk.
I love me some adult coed soccer. And it can be very high intensity intermittently if you feel like it.

No joke. I go to the gym a couple times a week so that I'll maintain mobility and won't injure myself as I age - unfortunately 80% of my injuries come from the gym.
Some people believe "high intensity" means lifting as much as possible as fast as possible, I'd say more reps and deliberately slow movements are as intense for the purpose of staying in shape/healthy.
Most body weight exercises are virtually impossible to fuck up to the point of injury, done properly they'll keep you fitter than 99% of the population

Everyone just needs to play soccer and avoid the 50/50s if you're an adult that wants to be pain free the next day. I love me some adult coed soccer. And it can be very high intensity intermittently if you feel like it.

Calisthenics is a really easy way to push intensity at basically 0 risk of injury. They're all compound and depending on the variation could require high reps, but between push ups, pull-ups, squats, their numerous variations, and accessory work, I would challenge anyone to actually injure themselves while also being able to push to true technical failure.

The study is about 70 year olds. I’m not sure it’s a good idea for the average 70 year old to be engaging in contact sports…
