LATERAL BOUNDS + MED BALL: POWER IN EVERY DIRECTION

ACL rehab, and specifically athletic performance, doesn’t just happen in a straight line. You have to be able to move side-to-side, generate force, and control it.

In this drill, we’re using lateral bounds with a med ball to challenge power, coordination, and stability all at once.

Why this matters:
• Lateral power development – Trains explosive movement for cutting and change-of-direction
• Deceleration control – Teaches the body how to absorb force safely on landing
• Core + upper body integration – The med ball adds rotational demand and coordination
• Single-leg stability – Reinforces control through the hip, knee, and ankle

This is where rehab starts to look like sport: dynamic, reactive, and purposeful.

DO DOPE THINGS WITH DOPE PEOPLE

I am very thankful for Jesse, allowing me to fully embody the vision of BPR to Reframe Rehab.

Hafthor, thank you for trusting me with your rehab, being open to listen and be the student that we all are. It was a lot of fun and I appreciate the experience of working with one of the all time greatest strength athletes.

15 years ago I sat in a Fresno State dorm room and would watch these 2 on youtube. Being passionate about strength has brought some cool stuff and I can’t wait for more people to experience it with me.

QUAD ACTIVATION MATTERS IN ACL RECOVERY

After ACL surgery, restoring proper quadriceps activation is one of the most important—and often most challenging—parts of rehab.

At Bax Performance and Rehab, we use standing hip extension with electrical stimulation (e-stim) to help athletes re-engage the quad while reinforcing proper lower-body mechanics. Training in an upright position allows us to activate the quad functionally, without placing unnecessary stress on the knee early in recovery.

Why this matters in ACL rehab:
• Quad activation with e-stim helps overcome post-surgical muscle inhibition
• Functional positioning reinforces posture and movement patterns used in sport
• Improved knee stability supports safer walking, running, and landing mechanics
• Progressive return to load bridges early rehab into higher-level strength training

At Bax Performance and Rehab, our sports physical therapy and orthopedic rehabilitation in Pleasanton and Livermore is built around intentional progressions so athletes don’t just recover, they return ready.

Don’t waste your time with step outs if you aren’t moving with intention

Endlessly stepping left to right with your legs straight and foot pushed out past your knee is missing the whole point.

Sit in a quarter squat (Knees bent , butt back) and drive your knee out.

That’s all that it takes to make the movement worth it! Your hips and glutes will immediately feel the difference.

The act of driving the knee out will translate over to all strength movements and can help with knee pain once your glutes get used to this stimulation.

Thinking you can take it easy right after knee surgery?

Well yes, but no.

We still need to keep the intensity as high as possible but dial it WAY back.

So post knee surgery, trying hard may be just picking your heel off the table.

But this first step is just as crucial as any squat or lunge in the rehab process.

Don’t race and skip to the fancy stuff. Dial in the intensity early and with every step along the way and you’ll be on the right track to a better rehab.
