🦵 Next in the ACL-R ‘getting the knee moving forward’ series!

🙌 Here you can see how important it is that the knee can travel forward, under load, to allow both a push and a landing.

☝️ If you haven’t really focussed on this ability early on in the rehab, you won’t be able to do it now.

➡️ It’s a common area where people really struggle through their post knee operation rehab and why a return to sport is so challenging for some.

💪 Clearly you need the absolute strength to push and absorb, but if you haven’t got the movement competency, the strength is relatively useless.

⬆️ Up your knee rehab game with Edge Physio!

➡️So the reason we choose the easy options to make us feel good, are because HARD THINGS ARE HARD!!!

🫵 You have got to push yourself
✅ Get out of your comfort zone
💪 Actually work to achieve it

🙌 This is why you feel GREAT after doing something that’s hard.

🫷Stop just coasting through and existing.

🧠 Challenge your brain & body!

🙌 Next simple landing progression, the single leg drop jump.

✅ You can see the overall improvement in strength, control, range, force absorption etc from previous videos.

👎 Then challenge the single leg ability and you see less landing stability, compensations at the pelvis and the other leg doing funky things!

👍 Yes, there is a learned component to this. But that’s the whole point right?! The whole neuromuscular/ proprioceptive mechanism needs retraining & improving post injury, let alone an ACL reconstruction.

➡️ Why should you start hopping, bounding etc if you can’t repeatedly NAIL this landing?

🤷‍♂️ In my opinion, you shouldn’t. I like to ensure the component parts are bang on - then you’re not being set up to fail!

➡️ You can just coast along taking the easy options.

🤷‍♂️ But nothing will change
🤷‍♂️ You won’t change
🤷‍♂️ Your circumstances won’t change
🤷‍♂️ Your luck won’t change
🤷‍♂️ The people around you won’t change

✅ The hard options WILL change things and you WILL feel great!

🤷‍♂️ Makes sense, right?

🦵 If you’re going to jump, you HAVE to land!

🙂 Very difficult to train jumping without landing.

💪 But you can train landing without jumping!

➡️ if you can not land effectively, strongly, controlled with both absorbing force and creating stiffness, then you’re going to have real problems.

✅ This simple drop jump two foot landing, nail this over & over. Then maybe 2 foot plyometrics. Then we’ll push on!

🫵 YOU!

🦵 Next in the knee flexion aspect of ACL reconstruction rehab…

⬆️ Pushing up on a higher box with maintaining that knee forwards (positive shin angle).

🤝 If you can’t push through the knee in flexion, it will be difficult to get on and off the floor strongly and effectively.

🤷‍♂️ Let alone absorbing force from landing from a header, pushing in a ruck, decelerating to push off with power.

👀 As always, there is a TON of pure strength work being put in. Plus side to side work, initial plyometrics etc.

✅ But the absolute ability of the knee to cope through all ranges of movement and demands still needs to improve.

😩 Unfortunately, this is where a lot of knee operation rehab fails:
➡️ Not enough pure strength.
➡️ Not enough attention to detail.
➡️ Not enough challenge to the knee.
➡️ Then eventually not enough plyometric / power generation work.

🤝 Not here at Edge Physio.

🤷‍♂️ Struggling with your knee rehab? Then we are the clinic for you!
