ACL Injuries Up 400 Percent in Young Athletes!

Athletes, Warriors, and anyone who love them! We are in code red in incidence of injury in sport and life.
ACL's (Anterior Cruciate Ligaments ) are getting huge publicity in part because of its commonality among professional athletes some of whom will suffer these injuries in front of a National TV audience.
Watch this news report from Texas from 2015 that illustrates how severe this epidemic is and some of the ways that you can help prevent or reduce the chances of this kind of injury.

How do you prepare your young athlete or seasoned vet to avoid ACL and other injuries? By engaging in a year round training program that helps him/her prepare for their sport. If a good strength coach or personal trainer is not feasible or affordable; train online with US Sports Online Strength and Conditioning.Saving money, time and possibly you or your child's knees, ankles, shoulders, etc.,Go to http://www.fitnessgenerator.com/ussportsradioand fill out the fitness profile form to get started.

Once we have determined a course of action to include ACL injury prevention, then part of your year round program will include our ACL rehab strength and power program described below:

Custom Strength and Power Programs
These are a group of Custom Strength and Power Programs with some great additions and variations to the original Strength and Power Programs.

The programs with the word "Olympic" in the title will have the Olympic lifts (power clean, snatch etc) added in. The programs with "Advanced" in the title will use something called "phase jumping". Phase jumping means it includes a set that calls for one rep at an intensity level that is 5-10% higher than the work sets. This set has been added at the end of the descending warmup for the "bigger" or primary strength exercises like squat, power clean, bench etc. The set combinations for these exercises appear rather long, but usually half of them are actually warmup based! These phase jumping sets allow the body to neurally adapt to the training poundages that will be experienced in the next phase of training in the workout.

Included as one of these Custome Programs is an ACL "Functional" Rehab Programthat is designed to bring strength levels back up over a 12 week time period. This ACL Rehab Program should not be done unless full range of motion exists in the knee joint, and physician clearance has occurred.
