"Research has now shown programs, such as the one outlined here, can and do decrease the risk of ACL injury.  My own children have completed this program, and they will repeat it yearly." --- Dr. Edwards, of Ohio Riverside Sports Medicine at the Ohio Orthopedic Center of Excellence in Columbus, Ohio, is a specialist in sports medicine.  He is a team physician for The Columbus Crew Major League Soccer Team and several other local sports teams.   This product will teach you the following:   How to know if you are at increased risk for an ACL injury   Proper jump landing positions that reduce ligament stress   How to cut and plant safely   Proven drills to increase your speed   Effective exercises to improve your strength and power   Training methods to dramatically increase quickness and agility   Listen to an interview on ACL injury prevention with co-author Brian Schiff on World Talk Radio   Can you afford to be hurt?   How old are you?  Research has determined that girls from early to late puberty are at greater risk for ACL injury as they show decreased neuromuscular control of the knee with landing from a jump movement.  (Hewett et al. JB&JS, 2004)   Does your sport require jumping?  A recent study estimated that 70% of all ACL injuries occur when landing from a jump.  (Boden et al. Orthopedics, 2000)   Do your knees cave in when landing from a jump or when cutting?   Excessive knee valgus (knees coming together) can be a cause for ACL injury.   Do you have a dominant leg that you use with your sport?  Research has determined that the dominant leg has a greater valgus knee when landing from a jump. (Ford et al.  ACSM, 2003)   Are your hamstrings weak?  The hamstrings act as a dynamic restraint to ACL injury.  Most athletes display a significant overdevelopment of the quads compared to the hamstrings.   Are your other joints loose?  Hypermobility (laxity) of your other joints may be a precursor for ACL injury.  Check the mobility of your knee, elbow, and pinky finger.   Can you balance on one leg?  If you have to touch down with the other foot or your knee caves in you are at a greater risk for ACL injury.  ACL injuries often occur when landing on one leg or cutting on one leg.  The athlete needs to dynamically stabilize the knee effectively to prepare for an injury free season.   Can you land a jump softly?  If you land a jump from a 12-18 inch box with a loud thump, you are having difficulty decreasing the forces of landing—increasing your risk for ACL injuries.   You can reduce your risk for ACL Injury!  Studies have determined proper training can reduce the incidence of serious knee injuries by 62%  (Hewett et al.AJSM 1999)   So, what is Protecting the Athlete's Knee and why do you need this book?   This 95 page manual covers ACL injury prevention and performance training   Learn how to perform a general screening to asses your risk level for an ACL injury   Reduce ACL injuries through science-based strength training exercises   Develop increased power with safe and effective plyometric training   Learn how to run properly using sound running mechanics   Increase speed and acceleration through our running drills   Improve first step reaction and explosiveness   Discover agility drills to improve ability to change direction rapidly   Develop better dynamic balance and knee stability   Reduce muscle strains with effective warm-up and stretching routine   Have access to an easy to follow sample 8 week training program   Low cost program created by physical therapists and professional strength and conditioning coaches   Perform drills on the field     See what others are saying about this innovative training program!   "Tearing an ACL is one of the most devastating injuries for any athlete.  Unfortunately, it has reached epidemic proportions in young female athletes where they are prone to this injury 7 - 10 times more than male athletes.  'Protecting the Athletes Knee' shows how to reduce the chances of an ACL injury with plyometric/Strength, Speed & Agility workouts and is a book that every young female soccer player should own." ---Mike Saif is the owner and President of World Class Coaching, and the editor of the World Class Coaching magazine.
