How to recover from your ACL injury like a professional athlete

Picture1

Last winter I connected with another NFL player who was going through an ACL recovery.

Before meeting him, he had been working as hard as he could to recover efficiently from the ACL injury. But he had just been to his doctor, who had taken him through several to test to determine how well his recovery was going.

The score on the test wasn’t pretty. So much so that his head coach later told me it caused him to have a panic attack in the parking lot. Despite doing everything possible to keep this player’s recovery on track, they were… well behind.

Fortunately, the player received a referral to call Accelerate ACL. After just a few training sessions with our team and technology, he started seeing steady progress.

After a few weeks he went back to the doctor for further follow-up to test again. His score doubled. The head coach was relieved and sent me a text saying, “I believe his scores have gone up in large part because of your work with him.”

Today, that player is on track to return to the field for the start of the NFL season. During a recent workout at his home, another player was visiting him, and I told him that the technology used in Accelerate ACL workouts is similar to his “cheat code.”

Had this player settled and not sought additional help, his recovery likely would have been delayed, putting his 2021 season in jeopardy. Instead, he’s back on the field and eager to make an impact… we can’t wait to see how it turns out.
