Rested your injury for a few weeks and wonder why you’re still in pain?
Time plays a part in your injury recovery, but most people get stuck after this
They go straight back to that 10km run, max bench press, face running pace or straight back in to full contact training
But nothing has been done to prep your body for that return to activity
Load management plays arguably the next most important role to time, bridging the gap between pain - inactivity - return to activity
This bridging of activity can also help with psychological readiness, return after major injuries such as ACL can put a huge stress on our belief system. Being frightened of changing direction at pace is going to elevate your risk of reinjury, exposing yourself to this safely and gradually over time will help build your confidence!
