ACL injuries are common in football, but the good news is that prevention is possible with the right exercises!

Here are 3 key exercises every footballer should incorporate into their training routine to help protect their knees and reduce the risk of ACL tears:

🔷 Focusing on eccentric hamstring strength, Nordic curls are excellent for ACL protection. Strong hamstrings help balance the force on the knee and prevent ACL strains or tears.

🔷 Proprioception (balance training) is crucial for better knee control. By training on one leg, you enhance your knee stability and coordination, which are key to preventing injuries during sudden movements or direction changes.

🔷 Mastering soft landings is essential! Proper jump technique reduces the force going through your ACL and minimizes the risk of injury during aerial play.

Want to stay fit and safe on the field?

Start incorporating these exercises into your training today! 💪

Heading to the slopes this winter? 🏂

It's crucial to take steps to protect your knees before hitting the snow. Here are 3 simple tips to keep your knees safe and performing at their best:

1️⃣ Strong quads = stable knees. Build up your quadriceps with targeted exercises to support your knee joints and improve stability during skiing.

2️⃣ Bindings are CRITICAL for safety and injury prevention. Ensure that a professional adjusts your ski bindings to ensure they release properly in the event of a fall, thereby reducing the risk of knee injuries.

3️⃣ Know when to stop! The last runs of the day are often when injuries occur due to fatigue. Listen to your body and rest when needed to avoid overexertion.

With the right preparation, you can enjoy your time on the slopes safely and injury-free. 🏔️❄️

If you’ve been experiencing knee clicking, it could be a sign of an underlying issue like a meniscus tear or ligament injury. While occasional clicking isn’t always cause for concern, persistent or painful clicking can indicate damage to the cartilage or soft tissue in your knee.

Common causes of knee clicking:
🔸 Damage to the cartilage can cause a clicking or popping sound when moving the knee.
🔸 Loose or torn ligaments can cause instability, leading to abnormal sounds.
🔸 Misalignment of the kneecap can also result in clicking sounds.

When to seek help:
✔️ If you experience pain or swelling alongside the clicking
✔️ If the clicking is associated with a feeling of instability or locking
✔️ If the clicking persists for an extended period

Don’t ignore persistent clicking. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent further damage and get you back to your active lifestyle.

✅ Return to activity faster – With a quicker recovery time

🦵 Did you know?

The ACL is one of the most commonly injured ligaments in the knee. Here's why it’s so vulnerable:

The Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) helps keep your knee stable by preventing your shin bone from sliding forward. It plays a key role during activities that involve sudden direction changes, jumping, or landing.

However, with forces reaching up to 2000N, it’s easy to see why athletes can get injured, especially with such high forces.

Common Signs of an ACL Injury:
⚡ A popping sound at the moment of injury
⚡ Immediate swelling around the knee
⚡ A feeling of instability or the knee "giving way"
⚡ Inability to continue playing or moving normally

If you’re experiencing these symptoms, it’s crucial to seek expert care right away.

At Yorkshire Sports Knee Clinic, we specialize in ACL injuries and offer advanced treatment options tailored to your needs.
