ACL Rehab Live Patient Case Series Part 4: Loading Up to Run

Course overview

This course is the fourth in a series that documents real-world progress of an athlete as he progresses through his rehabilitation journey following ACL reconstruction. This advanced course provides rehabilitation professionals with the specialized knowledge and practical skills needed to effectively integrate early plyometrics and targeted exercise interventions into ACL reconstruction rehabilitation programs. The course emphasizes the importance of early-stage dynamic training to enhance recovery outcomes, restore functional performance, and minimize the risk of reinjury in an actual patient. Learners will gain an in-depth understanding of the strength training principles and scientific rationale underpinning the use of early plyometric exercises in post ACL reconstruction care. Through a combination of theoretical instruction and practical demonstrations, clinicians will learn how to assess patient readiness for early plyometric training, design individualized exercise prescriptions, and implement advanced functional strength training strategies. Actual footage from the athlete's treatment session will offer practical application, insights, and real-time problem-solving into the successful integration of these techniques.
