The aim of the present article has been to analyze the literature on the epidemiology of injuries in two aspects of aerobic gymnastics: as a physical leisure activity and a regulated sport to determine which are the most frequent injuries when practising this gymnastics modality. %26lt;br%26gt;In December 2011 a search was made in the databases: Teseo, CSIC, Scopus, Medline, Sport Discus, Wos, Pubmed, Enfispo and Pedro. The descriptors used were: %26quot;aerobic dance injury%26quot;, %26quot;aerobic gymnastic injury%26quot; and %26quot;gymnastic injury.%26quot; %26lt;br%26gt;Ten studies on competition Aerobic Gymnastics and fourteen on traditional aerobics were found. The studies show that in both activities the most frequent injuries are to the extremities and those affecting the muscles. %26lt;br%26gt;The search revealed that the scientific production on this sport is scarce and in the competitive area it centres on Spain.
