As many clinics now move towards having strength-based equipment (which is huge!) to help facilitate rehabilitation, strength markers in the gym are now easier to tick off.
However, where a lot of rehab falls short is the on-field component. This isn’t just running but the integration of specificity as it relates to the sporting skills and contact.
Having a systematic approach with some “go-to” drills can be super useful. I also highly recommend linking in with actual skills coaches for individual sports to take it to the next level and provide the athlete with the best chance of success.
Here we have two athletes integrating contact with specific skills and context. This is part of the ladder we climb to ensure an athlete is adequately prepared for the demands of their sport.
