For example, twelve weeks later one of our clients, a 39-year-old CrossFit athlete named Josh, scored a 75/80 on the LEFS. Comparing this result to the graph, he is almost 20% ahead of the average ACL recovery.
His PT was extremely impressed with his progress and offered the following thoughts:
“By combining my physical therapy care with Accelerate ACL protocols at home, my patient experienced an increase in range of motion, increase in strength, and an overall decrease in pain. Three months postoperatively, his daily functional activity scores were 94%. He has set a new standard for our ACL recovery.”
Remember, this is just one example. Other athletes may find that they fall a little below the curve. That’s okay – keep working at it and you’ll get there. Ultimately, we hope you can use this information to start a conversation with your doctor, PT, or trainer about where you are in the ACL recovery process. As is the case with most things in life, try not to be ‘too high’ or ‘too low’ about what the score is telling you.
No matter what happens, your goal for tomorrow is the same. Be consistent, stay disciplined in your approach and work hard.
