Quality ACL rehab is not cookie cutter - it depends on the individual down to factors such as graft type.

The heel elevated squat hold is a great movement to elicit adaptation to the patellar tendon and potentially negate some of the anterior knee pain we typically see long term with this graft.

If this isn’t in your patellar tendon autograft ACLR rehab - implement it and see what happens!

Sometimes you can’t win 🤷‍♂️

Nutrition matters. Lock in a dietitian to your referral network and your patients will thank you.

I’ve heard the statistic being thrown around that 90% of adults over 30 cannot sprint.

Is that true? No idea - but I do know that as we age we get tossed into training buckets that say things like…

“You shouldn’t train like and athlete anymore”
“You shouldn’t play sports when you’re older”
“Just lift sub-maximally and walk”

Nah. I want to be able to sprint and change direction. I want to be able to play sports until the day I die because that’s what brings me joy.

And if I want to do that? I have to CONTINUE to train like an athlete. Be explosive, and play sports.

Grateful for a group of guys that is likeminded and will get out on the field in 26deg weather on snow to run around and relive the glory days 🙏

Is there a risk of injury? Yes. But it’s better than the risk of sitting on my butt being afraid to continue to challenge myself.

When done correctly, a good deadlift can be HUGE for back pain. Not only is it a great way to load the entire posterior chain, but it teaches you how to brace while doing so.

once posted this quote and I couldn’t agree more 👇

“IF YOUR LOW BACK REHAB PROGRAMS DON’T HAVE DEADLIFTS IN THEM YOU’RE MISSING THE HUGE PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECT OF A PATIENT FEELING LIKE A BADASS AFTER THEY PULL SOME WEIGHT FROM THE FLOOR!”

Additionally… posterior chain resistance training (including deadlifts) was shown to be more affective than general exercise for chronic low back pain 👀

Most people who think it’s bad just don’t understand the movement or don’t know how to coach it correctly or the derivatives thereof 🤷‍♂️

It’s a good thing though… right?
