Description

70% of athletic injuries associated with sports are anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears.  From the ages of 15-25 there are over 37,500 ACL injuries per year.  Women are up to 10 times more likely to injure their ACL than men.  Ligament tears at the knee occur by both impact and non-impact moves.  If injured, the recovery and rehabilitation time that it takes to return to normal function after an ACL surgical repair is anywhere from six to nine months. 
The DHF coaches have created a interactive step by step approach to help minimize the risk of an ACL tear, by enhancing your mobility, stability, and power production.
