Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
ACL rehab is a grueling journey, but the hard truth is that standard physical therapy protocols often fall short. In this episode, we’re breaking down what physical therapists get wrong, from rushing the biological healing process and skipping critical milestones, to ignoring movement mechanics and completely forgetting to train the opposite leg.
Joining the show to separate fact from friction is physical therapist and sports residency graduate, Jordan Cargile. Jordan brings her elite, frontline expertise in high-level athletic recovery to reveal why we need to slow down, respect the healing process, and completely reframe how we approach ACL rehabilitation.
Whether you're a clinician looking to level up your protocols or an athlete navigating your own recovery, this episode is a masterclass in doing ACL rehab the right way.
