Return to Running Program

Unsure of whether you’re ready to run or not? Have you been told that you’re far enough post op but have no clue whether your leg is ready for the demands of running? Our pre-running entry point will allow you to see whether you meet the criteria to run or not while also giving you access to our running prep exercise training program to ensure you’re as ready to run as possible! This program will emphasize getting you ready to run before transitioning to a structured training program designed to help you get to the next step in your training, the Return to Sport phase.

 

Return to Sport Program

Back to running but not fully ready to get back to activities that look like your sport or activity? Our Return to Sport training program will allow you to assess your readiness with our return to sport testing battery while also giving you a detailed, all-inclusive strength and conditioning program that utilizes all the principles of ACL recovery that makes us experts in the return to sport game. This program can also be great for those who are looking for a great prehab program before surgery, as we know that the stronger you are going into surgery, the better you’ll be coming out! Each training block is five weeks long and will continue to update as you hit new milestones.

 

Return to Play Program

Our final entry point is our Return to Play training program. This program is amazing for those who have gotten back to sport but need a robust, detailed strength and conditioning program that utilizes ACL recovery principles to not only maintain their current strength levels, but also continue to build on top it. This program can also be great for those who want a “prevention” training program to reduce the risk of an ACL injury happening. Each five week training block will focus on keeping you in the game and allow you access to a gym program that is ACL specific.
