ACL surgery to back on the pitch. Same season. đ
Ozzy walked in post-op unable to straighten his leg. Couldnât stand on one leg. Couldnât load his quad.
Most people at that stage think itâs a strength problem. Itâs not. Itâs a neuromuscular one.
After surgery, the nervous system shuts the muscles down to protect the joint. The hardware is there. The software needs rebooting.
Thatâs where we started. Isometrics. Soleus work. Step-ups. Rebuilding the signal before we rebuilt the strength.
That shake you see in early rehab? Thatâs not failure. Thatâs the nervous system reconnecting. Thatâs where the comeback starts.
Swipe to see how we got Ozzy back â phase by phase. đ
