ACL Return To Running Exercises [ Axe Rugby ] 

ACL Return To Running Exercises. How To Safely Begin Returning To Running From 3-4 Weeks Post ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) Operation By using Early Running Plyometrics. Returning to run after ACL injury can be very daunting and quite frankly scary. That is why I put this video together, to show you start to finish, the best plyometric exercises to assist you in returning to running safely. This is so important because only 30% of ACL patients do Plyometrics and agility before returning to sport! So that's why i made this video so we can all Level UP and get back to running!
Quite often I see people running after an ACL injury and you can see they just aren't ready! Patients report feeling slow, sluggish and without a 'Spring' in their step. When you aren't ready you get foot pain, hip pain, knee pain and swelling! Then you start to doubt yourself etc. This happens all too often because WE haven't done enough early preparation plyometric exercises for you to feel:
1. Build Strength in your Legs and trunk: Triple Extension Strength
2. Done any Part Practice Exercises that mimic running
3. You haven't done this because you don't have a plan!
I start my patients as early as week 3 post op and have a goal of getting back running for ACL Only patients at 12 weeks. HOWEVER your surgeon will know best having SEEN your knee and their recommendation should be be adhered to in regards to when you can start running again!
Then after 3 weeks I personally DONT even think about weeks again. You progress in exercises when you have the CAPACITY and the TECHNIQUE to progress. If you sat down for 12 weeks after your operation you won't be able to magically run straight away.
