Quad Injuries Explained📚

Quad injuries are one of the most common muscle issues in football, especially for players who rely on explosive kicking, sprinting, and rapid changes of direction. With Hannah Hampton now sidelined by a quad strain, it’s a good moment to break down what this injury actually involves — and what athletes should watch out for. 👇

🔍 What is a Quad Strain?

The quadriceps are a group of four muscles at the front of the thigh.
A strain occurs when these muscles are overloaded or overstretched, leading to microscopic fibre damage or, in more severe cases, a partial tear.

⚠️ How Quad Injuries Happen

Quad strains typically occur during:
• Sudden sprints
• Powerful kicking
• Explosive dives
• Fatigue in the late stages of a match
• Poor warm-up or strength imbalance between quads and hamstrings

Footballers — especially goalkeepers — are at higher risk because of repeated, high-force kicking and rapid acceleration.

🧠 Common Symptoms

Athletes often notice:
• Sharp pain at the front of the thigh
• A “pulling” sensation
• Pain when kicking, sprinting, or pushing off
• Tightness or tenderness when touching the muscle

These are early warning signs that should never be ignored.

🦵 What Effective Rehab Looks Like

Rehab isn’t just about rest — it’s about progressive loading.
A solid quad rehab plan should include:
• Early management to protect healing tissue
• Restoring mobility
• Strength progressions (isometrics → eccentrics → power)
• Running mechanics and change-of-direction drills
• Sport-specific progressions for safe return to play

The goal is to restore full strength, speed, and explosive power — safely.

📍 If You’re Experiencing Quad Pain…

A proper assessment can prevent a mild strain from becoming a long-term problem.
At our Farnborough clinic, we help footballers and athletes of all levels return stronger with tailored, evidence-based rehab.

📢Why ACL Prehab Matters More Than You Think🚨

Tearing your ACL changes everything — the way you move, the way you load the knee, even the way your brain trusts your leg again.
But here’s something most people don’t realise:

👉 Your recovery doesn’t start after surgery — it starts before it.

This is where Prehab comes in.
And the science is very clear:

📊 Patients who complete 4–6 weeks of structured prehab:
• Regain knee range of motion faster
• Return to sport 8 weeks sooner
• Achieve better strength symmetry
• Report significantly higher knee function scores 2 years later
• Have fewer complications and smoother post-op rehab

Why?
Because prehab reverses the immediate effects of an ACL tear:
🔹 Quad shutdown
🔹 Stiffness
🔹 Swelling
🔹 Loss of balance & control
🔹 Movement compensations

By improving strength, restoring full extension/flexion, and building neuromuscular control before surgery, you’re not starting rehab from “zero” — you’re starting from a strong baseline.

And don’t underestimate the mental side…
Prehab improves confidence, reduces fear of movement, and prepares you for the journey ahead.
A confident athlete → a better recovery.

Bottom line:
💡 The stronger you go into surgery, the stronger you come out.

If you’ve torn your ACL (or are waiting for your reconstruction date), prehab is the smartest investment you can make in your recovery, your performance, and your long-term knee health.

📅 Ready to set yourself up for the best possible outcome?

Our team specialises in ACL prehab, ACL rehab, and full return-to-sport protocols.

“It’s fine, I’ll run it off.”
Every footballer has said it — and most have regretted it.

But here’s the truth 👇

Pain isn’t weakness.
It’s a message — your body’s early warning system that something’s not quite right.

When you ignore that signal and push through, your body adapts by compensating:
• You start favouring one leg
• Your movement patterns change
• Other muscles take on extra load

And that’s where bigger problems begin.
A simple tight hamstring becomes a strain.
A rolled ankle turns into instability.
A small knock on the knee develops into weeks — or even months — on the sidelines.

💡 Pain-free doesn’t mean injury-free.
Just because it doesn’t hurt as much today doesn’t mean the tissue has healed properly. Without proper rehab and load management, re-injury risk shoots up.

That’s why smart players get assessed early.
With the right treatment plan, you can stay active, fix the issue, and return stronger — without losing fitness or confidence.

🩹 Whether it’s a ni**le, ache, or recurring pain, getting checked early could be the difference between missing one game or missing half a season.

Don’t just “run it off.”
Recover smarter. Play longer. Stay stronger.

Even Premier League stars aren’t immune to groin injuries ⚽💥

Chelsea’s Cole Palmer is currently sidelined with a persistent groin strain, being managed “day-by-day.” It’s the same type of injury we see in local footballers, runners, and gym-goers every week here in Farnborough.

The key?
✅ Managing load
✅ Rebuilding adductor + core strength
✅ Gradually returning to high-speed movement

Groin pain that keeps coming back is a sign something deeper needs addressing — not something to “play through.”

If you’ve got a ni**le that won’t settle, don’t wait until it stops you playing.
Book a sports therapy or rehab session and get back to full strength safely.

📣 Changing the Language Around Women’s Football Injuries

The term “ACL epidemic” has been everywhere lately — but it’s time we shift the conversation from fear to facts, prevention, and empowerment.

💡 Research shows female footballers are 3–6 times more likely to suffer an ACL injury than men.
But why?
It’s not just “bad luck” — it’s a mix of anatomy, movement patterns, hormones, training history, equipment design, and the rapid growth of the women’s game.

At George Gore Sports Therapy, we see this every week: strong, determined athletes rebuilding after injury and returning even better than before.

Our role isn’t just recovery — it’s education, prevention, and confidence.
We help footballers:
⚽ Improve movement control
💪 Build strength where it matters
🧠 Understand their body and risk factors
🏋️ Return to sport stronger than ever

Let’s replace fear with facts, and fear-based headlines with stories of resilience and recovery.

📍 Based in Farnborough, supporting athletes across the local area.
