ACL Injuries happen here👇 Over 90% of non contact ACL injuries happen at a 30 degree extended knee angles or less. The exact position of a Poliquin Step Up & Nordic Hamstring Curl, 2 exercises we typically find most footballers weak in! Here‘s how you can improve in these exercises, to help protect your ACL. Poliquin Step Up: Start at flat ground with just your heel elevated. Use assistance if needed and progress from flat ground to 6inches of elevation over time. Increasing by 2inches each time. Finally start loading. Our community has programs guiding your through this progression (link in bio) Nordic Curl: Once a week is safest. Fighting down the eccentric until you can control down fully. For me it was as simple as that. Once you can control down fully you can start working on coming back up, from regressed positions🫡 Hope this helps! #football #aclrecovery #acltear
