We got a ton of questions about our last hamstring post so let’s follow it up with some more hamstring goodness

10/23/2025

It’s easy to look at the end result and forget what goes into it. Here’s a snapshot of how we got to those first steps that you saw at the beginning of the video.

Step one is establishing knee extension and quad control with no lag on the table in non-weight-bearing. That’s a nonnegotiable.

Step two is working on accepting load on the involve side statically before we start moving. We’re looking to see if the knee can stay straight while the weight is being accepted on that left side.

Step three is adding a dynamic component to it, which you can see with the cone walkovers. Adding a band behind the knee to engage the quad more. This also challenges her ability to keep the knee straight while she is doing a full single leg task.

Then we practice walking. Does she start walking unrestricted, full-time without a brace now?

Absolutely not. We ease into it and gradually progress, giving her a strict guideline to follow to make sure we’re not overdoing it early on. She’s only two weeks post op. We want to make sure that we are being smart with our load management and sticking to our philosophy of being conservatively aggressive.
