🦵💥 Feeling Confident After ACL Rehab? That Might Not Be Enough... 💥🦵

New research (Zarzycki et al., 2024) just revealed something surprising: athletes who felt more confident returning to sport after an ACL injury were actually more likely to get re-injured!

At Bodyworks, we understand that after months of rehab, you want to feel ready. But here’s the thing: confidence alone doesn’t mean your knee is truly prepared for the demands of sport.

⚠️ This study is a big reminder:
🧠 Feeling mentally ready is not the same as being physically ready
📊 Objective testing is essential. Think strength, stability, control
⏳ Rushing back too soon can undo all your hard work

That’s why our ACL return-to-sport programs focus on:
✔️ Comprehensive movement assessments
✔️ Progressive sport-specific drills
✔️ Psychological readiness screening
✔️ Education to support smart, informed decisions

💬 Thinking about returning to sport after an ACL tear? Let’s talk. We’ll help you make a return that’s not just confident but calculated, safe, and sustainable.
