To do list post ACLR to recover v jump: regain full pass/act knee extension wake up quad (responsive work) avoid loss of fibre I (endurance hypertrophy) maintain fibre II activity ( strength - power) focus on triple extension add velocity to strength

Only 64% of patients passed the RTS test at 9 months after ACLR. Those who passed those tests displayed a lower SNQ (signal to noise quotient) in the proximal and middle part of the graft. T2 could be an effective indicator of graft maturity after ACLR.

Rehab alone didn’t shift my tib post tendinopathy, so I added in topical HRT every day. It’s 80% better in 2/52. Backs up the study below but more research needed. Anyone looking for an MSc or PhD study? ā˜ŗļø journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/03…

RTP test after ACLR useful or not? You know that 5.3% to 42.2% of healthy participants failed 6 different hop tests, 15.2% failed the SEBT, 37% and 50% failed the isometric knee flexion and extension test, and 23.7% to 28.9% failed the DVJ?

"It is important to recognize that a stiff movement pattern is likely a consequence of arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI), potentially combined with hamstring co-contraction or psychological factors such as fear."

"Practitioners should monitor the progression of muscle co-contraction during both open and closed kinetic chain activities in early to mid stages of rehabilitation. Analyzing kinetics, and displacement-time curves to identify compensatory strategies."
