We recommend consulting a musculoskeletal physiotherapist to ensure exercises are best suited to your recovery. If you are carrying out an exercise regime without consulting a healthcare professional, you do so at your own risk. If you have any concerns whilst completing these exercises, please contact a healthcare professional.
During the next stage of rehabilitation, exercises are progressed and are more challenging. Developing lower limb and lumbopelvic strength and control, as well as hip and knee flexibility, should be incorporated into your programme.
During the advanced stages of rehabilitation, you should be building towards, and achieving, a near-full level of fitness. In sport, this translates to upwards of 90-95% of your maximum sprinting ability, as well as the ability to quickly change direction, accelerate, decelerate and kick, if involved in your sport, through short, medium and long distances.
