Tearing your ACL is one of the most frustrating injuries an athlete can face. The road back is long, demanding, and requires more than just “waiting it out” until you feel ready. Unfortunately, many athletes unknowingly make mistakes during their rehab that increase their risk of re-injury—or worse, leave them underprepared when it’s time to return to sport.

A structured return-to-play plan isn’t just about safety—it’s about performance. It’s about equipping athletes to handle the demands of their sport, not just survive them. If you’re an athlete, coach, or parent navigating ACL recovery, you don’t need more opinions. You need a plan.
