CLINICAL GAP
Passing strength tests is not always the same as being ready.
Many ACL athletes look physically ready on paper but still hesitate when they need to cut, decelerate, jump, land, or accept force under sport-like demands. This course focuses on the gap between standard milestones and confident athletic performance.
Kinesiophobia
Recognize fear of movement and reinjury as a practical factor in ACL recovery and sport progression.
Force acceptance
Think through how athletes tolerate, absorb, and express force during late-stage rehabilitation.
Athlete confidence
Help athletes rebuild trust in the involved limb as tasks become faster and less predictable.
Return-to-sport bridge
Connect rehabilitation goals to the specific demands of practice, competition, and performance.
