Leah Williamson light rehab day 🔴⚪️
Here is a good example of a lower load day.
1️⃣ Banded Terminal Knee Extensions- great for quadriceps activation.
2️⃣ Decline Single Leg or Split stance Isometric Squat- excellent for patella tendon prep and capacity.
3️⃣ Isometric Hamstring Bridge- Builds hamstring tendon capacity. Particularly important following a hamstring graft for ACL reconstruction.
4️⃣Isokinetic Dynamometer Testing- Objectively testing Hamstring vs Quad strength ratios. An absolute must. Significant imbalances here can be a risk factor for ACL (re)injury.
5️⃣ Off-feet conditioning. Maintains CV fitness without overloading tissues/joints. Particularly useful after a higher load training day or match.
I’ve helped literally hundreds of people with knee ligament injuries. If you’re struggling or need a second opinion, feel free to get in touch!
