About this listen

In this episode, we dive into the real-life case of a 14-year-old female athlete navigating a complex ACL rehab journey. From prehab through post-op frustrations, the story unpacks the common—but often overlooked—issue of a cyclops lesion, and the emotional, physical, and systemic challenges that come with it. You’ll hear the importance of restoring full knee extension, the nuanced role of quads and graft types, and why trusting your gut (and advocating for yourself or your athletes) could be the key to unlocking progress. This is a must-listen for any ACLer or clinician who’s hit a frustrating plateau and wonders, “Am I crazy, or is something actually wrong?”
