Plyometrics aren’t where rehab starts — they’re where it proves itself.
Before you’re jumping, landing, and cutting… you need a foundation. Progressive strengthening builds the capacity of the quad tendon to actually handle force — not just produce it.
Think of it like this:
Strength = your ability to create force
Plyometrics = your ability to absorb and redirect it
Skip steps, and the tendon pays for it.
A solid progression looks like:
➡️ Isometrics (reduce pain, build baseline load tolerance)
➡️ Slow, controlled strength (squats, split squats, eccentrics)
➡️ Dynamic strength (faster tempo, single-leg work)
➡️ Plyometrics (jumps, hops, deceleration, change of direction)
When done right, plyos don’t just make you more explosive — they bulletproof your knees for sport.
Excited to see our athlete, Tristan, back in action!
