Ther Ex Thursday: Full lower body and core strength requires end range hip control to decrease compensatory motion of the pelvis and spine- what are your thoughts on the videos below?

[Knee SIG @knee_sig]

Another Ther ex idea a day early, check out these early loading response drills post ACLR. Thanks for the content @wesleywang.dpt (on Instagram) https://t.co/rVTsCgV5x7. What are your thoughts?

Ther Ex Thursday: Different ways to load the knee in different vectors to mimic a RTS. What are your thoughts? Thanks for the videos @N1sportsrehab

[Keith Knurr @KeithKnurr]

Excited to get my first, first author publication out. Thank you coauthors! Key findings: 1) 1-year surgical knee kinematics and kinetics are significantly reduced during🏃‍♀️compared to preinjury 2) non-surgical knee mechanics remained similar to preinjury.

Ther Ex Thursdays: Single leg loading variations- high step back, TRX assisted, weighted eccentric lowering. These demonstrate good loading through a large ROM, challenging both strength and stability. What would you change? Thanks for the video @@24lifedc (on Instagram)

Ther. Ex. Thursday! Here are 3 progressively more complex drills that emphasize the power and agility required for cutting and change of direction. Thanks for the video @the4conditioning(on Instagram).

Therapeutic Exercise Thursday! What do you think is a benefit of holding the tissue under longer load? Thanks for the video ⁦@johnkippdpt⁩ ⁦@UWHealthSports⁩ https://t.co/daYo0T6pQP

Are #MCL and #meniscustears the same thing?

While the pain can often be at the joint line for either of these, medial meniscal tears are not common with most MCL injuries and may be present only 10% to 15% of the time. https://t.co/0IO7LngIN7 #orthotwitter #educatethepatient
