Sunday scaries? Not here 🥍

While everyone else is winding down, we’re locking in—stacking reps, sharpening skills, and getting ready for a big week ahead.

Early after ACL surgery, one of the MOST important goals is restoring terminal knee extension — and not just passively, but actively.

That “heel pop” (lifting the heel off the table by fully locking out the knee) is a simple but powerful sign that your quad is doing its job again. After surgery, many people experience arthrogenic muscle inhibition — where swelling and joint trauma essentially “turn down” the quad, making it hard to fully straighten the knee even if nothing is structurally blocking it.

This is why chasing perfect, active extension early matters. If you skip it, you risk lingering stiffness, altered mechanics, and delayed progress.

The good news? Rehab doesn’t have to be fancy to be effective.

👉 Get the swelling down
👉 Wake the quad up
👉 Own your terminal knee extension

Master the basics, and everything else builds from there.

Happy Birthday to our amazing office manager, Janna! 🎉

Janna is the voice behind the scenes who keeps everything running smoothly—from answering calls and scheduling patients to helping with questions, payments, and new evaluations. While she works remotely and may not be seen in the clinic, our patients interact with her every day—and we constantly hear how friendly, professional, and reliable she is.

We are so grateful for everything you do, Janna. You truly make a difference for both our team and our patients. Wishing you a wonderful birthday! 🎂

Post-op ACL work isn’t just about getting stronger — it’s about moving well again.

Today’s focus:

🔹 Range of Motion – restoring full bend and extension so the knee can move freely.

🔹 Heel Pop – getting that terminal knee extension back so the quad can fully engage.

🔹 Gait Mechanics – relearning a smooth, confident walking pattern.

Small details like these build the foundation. One rep, one step at a time. 🦵

Knee pain doesn’t always mean skipping plyometrics as long as the prerequisite strength is present! Here are a couple of ways to introduce plyometrics: ️

Start with low-impact jumps with double leg and transition to staggered stance. Then the knee angle can slowly be increased with oscillations in split stance. The goal is to train your body to absorb force safely before progressing to higher intensity movements.

Strong, resilient knees are built step by step. Progress patiently and your power will follow. 💪🏼
