The Dreaded ACL Injury - Is There A Solution? _ Part V

Last week in our discussion, we talked about the squatting motion and how some of the deficits that we note in this motion could add to weakness and some of the pathological movements we see that put our athletes at risk for injury.  This despite the fact that these movement patterns may have existed for years and been reinforced as a part of their strength training program does not mean that it cannot be corrected or not a problem.   Some authors will tell you to stop the athlete from doing squats until this motion can be corrected.  Frankly, I feel this is the worst thi ..read more

Over the course of the last couple of weeks, we have talked about the dreaded ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) injury.  One of the keys in preventing these devastating injuries is education about how they occur and how we as clinicians, coaches, parents and athletes can identify what puts an athlete at risk.  Over the last 2 weeks, I talked about two ways we can identify those that are at risk.  One is having an athlete perform a single leg squat and what we should look for when they are performing that motion.  Secondly, we talked about core testing.  Not only what ty ..read more

Last week, we started a deep dive into what are some of the positions that the knee gets into that causes the non-contact ACL (dynamic valgus) and how we can assess that.  However, non-contact ACL injuries are very complex and there are a lot of things feeding into this.  One that is often ignored is the contribution of the core.  First of all, when I talk about the core, what I am referring to is the section from the knees to the chest.  From an anatomical point of view, this includes the majority of the structures that impact the core.  Structures and tissues that at ..read more

Last time, we started our discussion talking about anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and the impact that anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions (ACLR) have on future performance.  We ended the discussion asking the questions, what is it that leads to these injuries, how can we assess this as parents and coaches and what can we do about it?  First, lets look at what leads to these injuries.    The majority of ACL injuries are non-contact in orientation (Nessler et al Cur Rev Musculo Med 2017) meaning there is not contact with another player or external object.&n ..read more

Whether you are a parent, an athlete or a coach, when you think about one of the most dreaded sports injuries for an athlete to have, the ACL or anterior cruciate ligament often rises to the top mind.  All of us have either had personal experience with or know someone that has suffered an ACL injury.  This topic became a huge passion for me and a part of a higher calling when I had 22 young athletes come into my sports physical therapy practice over a 2-week period with an ACLR (anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction).  I knew I had to do something about it.  As a mast ..read more

As a sports medicine physical therapist, I have been blessed to work with high school, collegiate and professional athletes for 24+ years.  As most of you know, I have devoted the majority of my professional career to a calling.  The calling of prevention.  Although it started in ACL prevention, it has expanded to all preventable lower limb injuries.  This started over 20 years ago and is a part of what I do every hour, every day.  With the commercial launch of the DorsaVi ViPerform AMI (athletic movement index), adoption in professional, collegiate and sports rehabi ..read more

Over the last 15+ years I have had the pleasure of divulging into one of my true passions.  Teaching.  I initially started teaching for MDs, DCs, PTs, ATCs and strength coaches back in 1997.  Since then, I have been blessed to teach all over the US and abroad.  I love sharing the passion for what we do, how we do it and what we are learning.  Last year alone, I was blessed to teach at 35+ conferences in the US.  Since COVID-19, this has led to an entirely new way of teaching for me, virtually.  Although I fully anticipated this to be the year that I did a lot ..read more
