Plyometrics are the foundation of powerful athletic performance—whether it's jumping, landing, or changing direction. After an ACL injury, rebuilding these explosive movements is crucial to regain strength and confidence in your sport. The single leg drop jump test is a milestone in late-stage rehab, measuring the speed and strength needed for a full comeback.

Is this the inevitable reality of ACL rehabilitation or something we should strive to improve by rewriting the narrative around these outcomes? Despite a plethora of studies reporting how patients struggle to regain strength symmetry, achieving LSI >90% and benchmark values can be done as early as 3 months post ACLR, even for non-professional athletes. Having spent the last couple of years leading Jointli at Landmark Orthopaedics ACL program, I can confidently say that this is not unrealistic. What is the missing piece here? Have we ever considered what gets actually done by the patients? The current body of evidence fails to properly report: 1. Detailed Training/Rehabilitation content (other than citing protocols) 2. Adherence (% of training prescribed that gets completed) Personal opinion here but these are extremely important variables to describe variance in outcomes, yet never get considered properly in research studies. It goes without saying that type of surgery, pre-op / pre-inj. function, acute symptoms response all play a relevant role in shaping patient progress. We have to stop looking at reduced outcomes following ACL injuries / rehabilitation as a static inevitable result, and start making changes to ensure goals are met effectively.

Wonderful experience last week visiting my good friend Meng Sok and his colleagues in Cambodia, and helping out with some knee surgery cases. Made even more special by being able to share with my son Sam who is doing his final year elective there. Also had the opportunity to visit some historical sites and learn a bit more about this fascinating country. Look forward to visiting again before too long.
