✨ SPORT-SPECIFIC REHAB DRILL ✨
Ankle injuries are very common in football. The first stages of rehabilitation are vitality important including: range of motion, mobility and strengthening exercises. However, late-stage rehabilitation which includes preparing players to return to sport, both physically and mentally is equally important, yet often forgotten about.
This late-stage, sport-specific rehabilitation drill tests both lateral movement and vertical movement of the ankle, but ALSO tests the players reaction and provides them with a drill that’s unpredictable- very much like a game situation.
This is key as it tests the stage of which the ankle is currently at and allows weekly comparison, as well as preparing the players for game situations.
DM now for advice on your injury and rehabilitation- whatever the stage!
