As a sports PT and lifelong gymnast, I’ve helped many athletes recover from injuries and, more importantly, decrease the risk of them coming back. If you want to keep performing at your best, here are some things to know about injury prevention:

Prioritize strength training.
A well-rounded strength program is essential for stabilizing and protecting joints, improving movement mechanics, and reducing the impact of high-intensity forces.

Mobility and flexibility are key.
Dynamic warm-up through the existing joint range of motion at the beginning of your practice. Strengthen into new ranges of motion instead of only passively stretching. Complete controlled static stretching only when joints are warm and when there are at least 2 hours of recovery time available afterward.

Master landing mechanics.
How you land is just as important as how you take off. Proper landing techniques reduce stress on joints and ligaments.

Listen to your body!
Pain is your body’s way of signaling something isn’t right. Ignoring aches and pushing through discomfort can lead to serious injuries. If you experience persistent soreness or sharp pain, it’s time to seek professional advice.

Allow yourself time to recover.
Athletes often underestimate the importance of recovery. Rest days, hydration, proper nutrition, and sleep all play a role in keeping your body in peak condition. Need a great sports nutritionist? Check out our friend .

Confidence in coming back from an injury is so important! 🙏🏼 💭

If you believe you can come back even stronger than before, there’s a higher chance you’ll be working towards that goal. 💯

Using a sports psychologist and ensuring your rehab includes exercises that mimic your sport are two ways to help encourage that confidence and keep your motivation going.

đź’ˇIn a rehab program post-ACL injury, athletes must include high stress & high multi-directional forces in their exercises!

These exercises should mimic the same stretches and patterns that the athlete is going to go through once they return to their sport.

One common mistake is getting the knee pretty strong, but not getting it ready specifically for the movements that they will soon be taking on.

Properly practicing the 10-minute rule in your exercises is very important, especially when you're dealing with a muscle strain.

Resistance that reproduces pain in a muscle is required for complete muscle healing. The biggest mistake people make with treating muscle injuries is practicing exercises that don’t hurt! 💪

The 10-minute rule allows you to stay active without overloading the injured muscle. It helps you find the “sweet spot” where the muscle is being challenged—but not worsening the injury.

So you find out you have a muscle strain! What to do now? 👀 First up: rule out any more serious injuries. It’s very comm...

So you find out you have a muscle strain! What to do now? đź‘€

First up: rule out any more serious injuries. It’s very common for someone to believe they have a muscle strain when there is really a different culprit. The muscle strain will respond well to movement-based treatment.

After, figure out the trigger point. Technically, you don’t even need to know the name of the muscle you’re treating as long as you’ve correctly identified the resisted movement pattern that creates the recurring pain. To self-treat effectively, you’ll use the pain-producing movement pattern for the 10-minute rule. Stay tuned for more! 🔥🙏🏼

New blog post is up! How to Self-Treat Muscle Strains đź’Ż

Some common symptoms of a muscle strain include:
đź”´ Localized pain always in the same spot
đź”´ Pain occurring with the same resisted movement each time, and almost no pain at rest
đź”´ Possible stiffness and pain when stretching the injured muscle, depending on severity
đź”´ Retaining full range of motion and strength for all other movement directions of the joint
đź”´ Less pain and improved strength with warming up the injured muscle

Don’t forget this in your ACL recovery! 🚨

Single-leg stability and strengthening is so important. These two are often missed in a proper recovery.

04/14/2026

Following an ACL injury, the standard rule of thumb for returning to sport is that your injury leg is at 80% capacity of your uninvolved leg.

Here are some ways you can ensure that you’re working at 80% capacity:

🦵The ability to complete both double-leg long jumps, rebounds forward and backward and side-to-side, as well as single-leg running forward and backward and side-to-side with at least 80% speed in comparison to your uninjured leg without any reproduction of injury.

đź’ˇA lot of doctors will tell parents that their youth athletes have Sever's disease just because they're going through a growth spurt and have pain in the area around their heel...
..but specific location is very important here! It should only be the point that the tendon is pulling on where the pain is centralized. Pain in other locations is a sign that it's likely not Sever's!

04/11/2026

When youth athletes have Sever’s, they don’t always have to stop training completely!

Treat it like a normal tendon injury: spend extra time warming up and practice targeted movements that don’t flare you up. As long as you're not experiencing worsening pain, these actions can help with your Sever's.

04/09/2026

The most important thing that parents need to know about Sever's?

It should be happening during a period of rapid growth. If the pain persists for more than a few weeks, it has likely turned into tendonitis or another ankle-related injury and needs to be addressed.

04/09/2026

This week, we’re diving into Sever’s Disease and answering some questions from parents of youth athletes! What is Sever’s Disease? Actually, it’s not a disease per-se, but something that happens in growing kids. With bones growing faster than muscles and tendons, there is added tension and stress that may cause pain for a few weeks. Stay tuned for some more Q&As! 👀 🔥
