TH@theaclrehabguy 👈 & Comment “KNEE” and I’ll send you my FREE ACL strength guide on how to get your quad strength back.
Lost the spring in your step after ACL injury? @theaclrehabguy
The biggest reason athletes don’t return to sport is a lack of confidence,
But when we look closer this is often followed by a feeling of weakness, loss of explosiveness or a feeling that “my leg just isn’t what it used to be”
When I hear that I ask 3 questions
❌ What are your quad strength scores?
❌ Are you completing a structured plyometrics training plan?
❌ And if so are you doing more than just a few box jumps and hops ?
The last thing to come back after ACL injury is your explosiveness.. but we know not fully restoring it, is putting your knee at risk when returning to the high speed change of direction movements in sport.
But ACL rehab can be overwhelming
❌ How do I fit these into my program?
❌ Which exercises should I do?
❌ How do I safely progress them?
Are all questions I’m regularly asked.
The answer is, there is no magic “best” plyometric exercise..
Everyone needs different exercises at different times based on your individual recovery phase and goals
So if you feel like you’re randomly trying to add jumping exercises into your rehab from Instagram videos, you’re probably missing something. And right now you really have two options
1. Continue with the uncertainty and unstructured plan - IE stay in the same place, never returning to the same active lifestyle you love
OR
2. Take control of your rehab moving into the summer, get a rock solid support team, a structured, individualised plan and specific targets you can work towards and smash so you can have confidence you’re safe to return to your best!
And option #2 I can help with
I’ve already helped 150+ ACLers in the past 3 years
So if you are determined to return to the sports or activities you love in the next 12 months DM me “INTERESTED” to find out how we can work together to make that happen
