ACL Injury Prevention and Post-Op Rehab

Course Description

When we see so many athletes getting hurt coupled with high ACL re-injury rates…we’re doing something wrong.  With these evidence-based strategies to confidently identify the at-risk ACL athlete and design higher-level exercise progressions, you can help stop the cycle.  In this webinar we will cover:

• Preseason screening tactics to identify neuromuscular and biomechanical ACL risk factors
• 5 must haves for early phase rehab that reduce pain, swelling and atrophy
• Strategies to give the athlete confidence to move again
• Sport specific progressions to restore function
• How to integrate plyometrics for advanced neuromuscular retraining

This proven framework will help you bridge the critical gap between post-op rehab and higher-level performance.  You’ll walk away with techniques that will equip your athletes to get back in the game with sport specific prep for power, strength, speed and agility!
