It's AMA Friday with TJ & Helen answering your questions!

☝️Do ice baths actually work? 🧊

In short, yes but it depends!
For short-term recovery, they're solid 👊. Research shows reduced soreness and DOMS within 24-48 hours compared to control groups. Ice baths would be great if you need to perform back to back!

The catch? If building muscle and strength is your goal, you may want to think twice about doing it directly after training. A 2024 study found ice baths right after resistance training can interfere with muscle growth.

✌️If stretching doesn't prevent injuries… why do we still do it? 🤸‍♂️

Stretching isn't useless but the evidence for it preventing injuries is pretty weak. What it does do is improve range of motion that you may need, and helps increase flexibility. Make sure you're training into your new gained range in order to keep it!

Most people have heard the terms tolerance and capacity thrown around, but what do they actually mean for your training?

Tolerance is what your body can handle right now.
Capacity is what it's been built to handle over time.
The gap between the two is where injuries happen.

Rehab with us through an Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (quadriceps tendon autograft) + medial and lateral meniscus repair 🦵

☝️Early phase = protect healing and rebuild the basics:
• swelling control
• full extension
• quadriceps activation & strength (no lag)
• normal walking
• gradual flexion (>120 deg at the end of this phase).

✌️Strengthening phase:
• Reintroduce hinging + squatting patterns (depending on the graft site, there'll be a bias towards one over the other).
• Start shallow, progressing depth and load as tolerated

In this phase we can also start retraining running mechanics with sled pushes, triple extensions against the wall, etc which will help prepare us for future running.

3 questions we hear every week!
🤔 “Do I need to rest completely?”
🤔 “Do I need a scan?”
🤔 “Why do I feel pain? Is it a sign of damage?”

If you’re stuck in a cycle of flare-ups, you probably don’t need 'more rest'. You need the right progression and advice.📈

Rehab with us through an ankle fracture & Syndesmosis Reconstruction. 🦶🔧

1st PHASE - PROTECTION 🛡🏋️‍♂️
- Focus is allowing the natural healing to take place
- Build up lower limb strength with mostly open chained exercises & closed chain exercises within Dr’s post op orders.
- Maintain cardiovascular fitness ❤️‍🔥

2nd PHASE - BUILDING STRENGTH💪
- Once all post-op precautions are ceased, priority is regaining full mobility ASAP
- Start strength building phase with focus on unilateral exercises to avoid compensation ⚖️

3rd PHASE - BUILDING PLYOMETRIC CAPACITY ⚡️
- Focus is on landing control & reactive strength 🦿
- Building the bones, muscles and tendon’s capacity and tolerance to take impact

4th PHASE - RETURN TO SPORT 🏃‍♂️
- Sport specific drills given the client’s goals
(We’re currently in this phase!) 👏

Everyone is different and the progression to the next phase should be based on respecting the natural healing times, the individual’s strength & control, and their goals. 🎯✨
