Hi Alex, This is one of the best videos I have seen for ACL recovery. Well done. I’m about 13 months from snapping my acl from a very minor rotation injury. I also ruptured my LCL at the same time, I elected to not have surgery and went for physio as an option. I feel that I have progressed well however I get mild discomfort from my knee after running (1-2k) at slow pace can you recommend a strengthening exercise to reduce the pain Kind regards Barry.

Thanks for the kind words mate. I do have some videos on quad strength. The mistake people often make is the don't 'load' the exercise hard enough over time. kzread.info/dash/bejne/kah3w7uDmMi1qNY.html&ab_channel=AxePhysio

Excellent demonstration of the progressive steps to return to running. I can see that it would take a few more months before I can run.

hey alex, i have a question. So my doctor cleared me for pretty much everything and he wants me to do this 4 week program just to “make sure” im 100%. i had a unhappy triad injury 9 months ago during a football injury and am 8 months post op. i’ve been fully lifting for 6 months i been running for 3 and now i want to start doing exercises to get my back into football. there’s a camp i want to go to soon and my schedule is filled up and won’t allow me to go to the 4 week rehab before so i’m just trying to do my own rehab before the camp and this video was extremely helpful. would i do all of these techniques with my special brace that i was given for sports? or with a more sleeve-like brace? i’m so glad i found your channel, extremely helpful and ur a beast man

Hi Kae, Irrespective of the ammount of time that has passed. your leg needs to be the same size. Strength the same for quads (like 5rm leg press or knee extension, glutes and calves plus you want to have done sprinting for about a month. plus you should be really happy with changing direction and jump landing etc. if you feel that hasnt happened i would keep rehabbing. i work in elite rugby and a 9 month return with 1-1 physio is quick...

Hello I was just wonder how long you would suggest me to wait to try and jump when I have completed the landing strength exercises?

@AxeRugby

3 жыл бұрын

Hi chewy, this reeally depends on you and your presentation. but definitely. sufficient strength like leg press 1.5x your body weight, calf raise 20 reps, ability to jump land with control and no pain along with any meniscus pain/post surgery pain being resolved. Make sure you contact a physio to help. At axe physio we do consultations also

In the pogo exercise you talked about “landing dorsiflexed” to be a spring. Did mean land plantarflexed?

@AxeRugby

No, dont reach for the ground with your toes. be prepped to land by having a stiffer foot.

After 6 month of my surgery,can I try to start running slowly? I have no swelling,but I still have 20/30% thickness of my Thai?I still have little bit of pain in my knee when I do single leg squats? And feel some pain when I bend my knee and sit in the floor?otherwise I feel strong when I walk,and doing my regular activities? My surgery was done by fibertape internal brace acl+ both meniscustomy??

Restore strength and size first and foremost !

So basically it’s preferred that I do the quad exercises before doing these exercises?

deep sitting compresses the meniscus. Make sure you have full knee extension to get the knee to be fully settled

I cant specifically comment on your condition im afraid, but every rehab should be logical, and guided by a professional!

I am 7 weeks post op acl and meniscus repair. 26 yr old and very active prior to injury. I'm told 8-12 weeks is the time the graft is weakest. How many of these exercises should i do?

@AxeRugby

4 жыл бұрын

Hi mate, really appreciate you commenting. I cant speak specifically to you as when the meniscus is involved they may not want impact due to the repair until a certain time. However that being said I get my meniscus patients to at least do the posture holds, Calf walks and the landing practice double leg exercises. I then progress them based off their pain, swelling and movement response to the exercises, (were they sore, were they ok, did the knee swell). The graft is at risk when you plant and twist or fall onto your knee whilst bent. so dont do those things. getting back to running by 12 weeks is best case scenario, but the main purpose of the video is making the progression back to running as seamless as possible. Let me know if that helped! Alex

Hi Alex. I am 11 months post op. with ACL reconstruction using hamstring graft and meniscus repair. My quad and hamstrings are weak as compared to my normal leg. I am also struggling with end range of motion.I do not have an access to a sports physio. Please help.

Hi Syed If you would like dedicated time I do online consulting email me at axephysiotherapy@gmail.com I'm happy to provide general information of course but I wouldn't be able to give you specific advice without talking 1 on 1. In general for quads. 2-3x a week of squats, knee extensions, lunges, leg press (not all of these but a combo) will improve your leg size. Hamstrings. rdl, nordic hamstring curls, box bridges are great. I have videos on this in my ACL playlists which you can check out via the playlists tab in KZread. Alex

Hamstrings will never be the same as before surgery. I'm 15 year's post surgery, still alot weaker. You miss the grafts and muscles
