The FIFA World Cup and ACL injuries remain one of the most impactful injuries in professional soccer. While much of the discussion around ACL reconstruction focuses on graft choice, rehabilitation, and return-to-play timelines, a new study published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine highlights an often-overlooked challenge: secondary muscle injuries after athletes return to competition.In this episode of Overtime with The Sports Docs, Drs. Ashley Bassett and Catherine Logan review the newly published article, "Secondary Muscle Injuries and Performance Decline After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in Professional Soccer." The study examines the incidence, timing, and impact of muscle injuries following ACL reconstruction in elite soccer players and explores how these injuries affect performance, playing time, and even market value.The findings reinforce an important principle in sports medicine: return to play is not the finish line—it is only the next phase of recovery.Key Discussion PointsUnderstanding ACL Injuries in SoccerCommon mechanisms of ACL injury in soccerWhy cutting, pivoting, deceleration, and landing place soccer players at particularly high riskThe career implications of ACL injuries in professional athletesACL Reconstruction Graft OptionsBone-Patellar Tendon-Bone (BTB) autograftHamstring tendon autograftQuadriceps tendon autograftAdvantages and disadvantages of each graft choiceWhy allograft tissue is generally avoided in elite athletesModern Return-to-Play Decision MakingMoving beyond time-based return-to-play criteriaStrength testing and limb symmetryHop testing and movement analysisNeuromuscular control assessmentPsychological readiness for sportOngoing graft maturation and biologic healingStudy Review: Secondary Muscle Injuries After ACL ReconstructionThe authors evaluated professional male soccer players from Europe's top leagues who underwent ACL reconstruction between 2020 and 2023 and compared them with matched healthy controls.Key findings included:32.5% of ACL-reconstructed players sustained a secondary muscle injury within one year of return to playOnly 12.5% of matched controls experienced muscle injuriesACL-reconstructed athletes were more than twice as likely to sustain a muscle injury after returnMost Common Secondary InjuriesHamstring strains (42%)Quadriceps strains (32%)Calf injuries (16%)Adductor injuries (11%)Notably, nearly 70% of injuries occurred on the reconstructed side, suggesting persistent deficits may contribute to injury risk.The Highest-Risk WindowOne of the most important findings:Nearly 58% of all secondary muscle injuries occurred between 3 and 6 months after return to competitionThis period may represent a critical vulnerability window when athletes are increasing match exposure, training volume, and competition demands.The Importance of the 9-Month RuleThe strongest predictor of secondary muscle injury was early return to play:Athletes returning before 9 months after ACL reconstruction had nearly a fivefold increased risk of secondary muscle injuryThis study adds to the growing body of evidence supporting delayed, criteria-based return to sport rather than return based solely on time.Performance and Career ImpactPlayers who sustained secondary muscle injuries experienced:Reduced playing timeFewer minutes on the fieldDecreased participation metricsDeclines in overall performanceThe study also demonstrated significant reductions in player market value among athletes who experienced secondary injuries, highlighting the financial and career implications of incomplete recovery.Strengths and Limitations of the StudyStrengthsMatched-control designFocus on elite professional soccer playersInclusion of performance metrics and market value outcomesReal-world relevance for sports medicine clinicians and team physiciansLimitationsRetrospective study designRelatively small sample sizeNo objective rehabilitation data availableNo information on graft typeLack of strength testing, hop testing, or psychological readiness measuresNo workload or GPS tracking dataClinical TakeawaysACL recovery extends well beyond return to competition.Return to play should be viewed as a milestone, not the endpoint.The first 3–6 months after return may represent the highest-risk period for secondary injury.Continued strength training, neuromuscular training, and workload monitoring remain essential after athletes resume competition.Returning before 9 months after ACL reconstruction may substantially increase the risk of secondary muscle injury.Successful ACL recovery is not simply about returning to sport—it is about staying healthy and performing at a high level after return.Article Discussed"Secondary Muscle Injuries and Performance Decline After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in Professional Soccer"Published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine (AJSM), 2026.

Quadriceps shutdown after ACL reconstruction is one of the biggest barriers we see in the clinic. Even with modern surgical techniques and “aggressive” rehab, too many athletes struggle to get their quad strength back, and that deficit shows up later in gait, loading, and confidence on the field.A new systematic review and meta-analysis just took a fresh look at neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) as an adjunct to ACL rehab. Does adding NMES actually move the needle on quad strength? Does timing matter? And does any of this translate into better knee function where it counts?In this week's podcast, we break down what the authors found, how strong the evidence really is, and how we're thinking about NMES programming in our own ACL protocols. If you're working with post-op knees, you'll want to hear this before you set up your next rehab plan.To see full show notes and more, head to: https://mikereinold.com/should-every-acl-get-e-stim-what-the-new-nmes-meta-analysis-really-shows/Join us on Tuesday night, February 3rd, at 8:00 PM EST to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of our podcast!

Quadriceps femoris and the hamstrings are powerful extensors and flexors of the knee respectively, but they also cross the hip joint. Let's talk about their anatomy.
In recent years, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in children and adolescents (age ≤18 years) have been increasing, and the quadriceps tendon (QT) autograft has been gaining popularity for ACL reconstruction. However, there is no consensus regarding the graft choice for ACL reconstruction in these young patients. There has been a paucity of literature comparing the functional outcomes of hamstring tendon (HT) and QT autografts for ACL reconstruction in patients aged ≤18 years. In conclusion, a QT autograft for ACL reconstruction led to similar clinical outcomes, revision rates, and sports participation compared with an HT autograft in pediatric and adolescent patients.

Lunges are a cornerstone of healthy aging - building lower-body strength, improving balance, and supporting joint health. This episode is the third in our twenty-part series, Move for Life, exploring the intersection of longevity, strength training and movement. Miami-based fitness coaches Shebah Carfagna and Nate Wilkins contrast front, back, and side lunges, explaining how each targets different muscle groups and mimics gait to enhance functional movement.Shebah underscores posture, pelvic floor engagement, and proprioception as critical factors in reducing chronic pain and preventing falls, while Nate connects lunge training to real-world demands, from pickleball to travel, arguing that balance and foot placement are non-negotiable for injury prevention. We also discuss how integrating short, accessible sessions into everyday life - at home, in gyms, or even at airports - support longevity.You should seek medical advice before embarking on a new exercise.This episode is the second in our 20-part series, Move for Life, exploring the intersection of longevity, strength training and movement. -----This podcast is supported by affiliate arrangements with a select number of companies.

For optimal quad growth, it's probably not enough to just train squats, leg presses, or similar exercises. This has been bro science for decades, and today we will discuss a new study that confirms this. The study had the participants train the leg press with one of their legs, and leg extensions with the other one. And the results of muscle growth in the quadriceps differed enough to make a long-term difference in your training! Want to try a great leg workout?

Quadriceps peak torque is an important metric to track in ACL rehabilitation. But is it valued too highly for return to run decisions? In this episode, Jeff breaks down some of the literature that looks at this question to understand what we know so far about the value of this metric when making return to run decisions. Please note, this episode does not constitute medical advice.

Despite our technological advances in ACL surgery, the rehabilitation period remains challenging, particularly when it comes to lingering quadriceps weakness. Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Therapy has been introduced as a potential means to speed up the return of quad function. We welcome Dr. Kelechi Okoroha from the Mayo Clinic to discuss his high-level study, “Effects of Perioperative Blood Flow Restriction Therapy Program on Early Quadriceps Strength and Patient-Reported Outcomes After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.” By utilizing BFR in both the pre- and post-operative periods following ACL reconstruction, Dr. Okoroha and his team did demonstrate a benefit in strength and patient reported outcomes.

Fersen-Erhöhung plus Gewichtheberschuhe In dieser Folge beantworte ich die Frage einer Klientin: „Muss ich Gewichtheberschuhe tragen, obwohl ich schon Scheiben als Fersen-Erhöhung bei der Kniebeuge nutze?“ Die schnelle Antwort lautet: „Ja!“ Aus drei Gründen: 1. Stabilität 2. Mobilität 3. Frage der Zielsetzung Gewichtheberschuhe bieten aufgrund der flachen Sohle deutlich mehr Stabilität als gewöhnliche Sportschuhe und wir wollen bei der Kniebeuge nicht die Fußmuskulatur trainieren. Das tun wir primär beim Barfußlaufen. Das Gleiche gilt für die Mobilität. Durch den Heel Drop des Gewichtheberschuhs erleichtern wir es tiefer in die Kniebeuge zu kommen. Die Verbesserung der Sprunggelenksbeweglichkeit trainieren wir dann lieber mit pausiertem Wadenheben, worauf ich in der Folge detaillierter eingehe. Die Erhöhung der Ferse durch Scheiben dient primär dazu, den unteren Rücken zu entlasten, sowie mehr Muskelfasern im Quadriceps zu rekrutieren. Denn je höher die Ferse, desto Quad dominanter ist die Kniebeuge. In diesem Sinne: Trainiere alle Formen der Kniebeuge immer mit Gewichtheberschuhen.

Reeves Weedon is a Fellow of the PGA, a published author and researcher. He's also an authorized Master of the Golfing Machine, a TPI Certified coach and a presenter for the Nick Faldo series of golf. Reeves specialises in Biomechanics and the Prevention of Lower Back Injuries in golf. Recently his three-year research project (on prevention of lower back injuries - conducted at Michigan State University) was presented to the 37th International Society of Biomechanics in Sports Conference. Reeves joins #OntheMark to discuss "Weedon's Way" - his method of swinging a golf club. His "Lower Body Swing" is based on a fundamental fact of physics - all power ultimately comes from Ground Force and from pushing on the ground. His golf swing involves a whole body motion, powered by the appropriate use of the legs, hat does not require any compensatory moves to get the club on plane, or preserve loft, or create lag. Weedon's approach to using the legs to initiate the correct Kinematic Sequence promotes maximum clubhead speed for minimum effort by way of an efficient, timely transmission of force to the club. Unlike other golf swing methods, Weedon's "Lower Body Swing" directs the golfer's attention to the movements that Physics prove powers the golf shot. This approach to swinging the golf-club makes use of two of the three largest muscles sets in the body - the Gluteus Maximus and the Quadriceps. Activating these muscles when swinging the club enhances power, consistency and most importantly reduces back injury and pain by enhancing the pivot and reducing tilts. Play with less pain and more power. Download this podcast or watch it on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/@MarkImmelman

We're coming to you live from the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons annual meeting in Las Vegas, our largest orthopaedic conference. This year, over 20,000 orthopedic professionals gathered at the AAOS meeting to take part. The educational program is comprised of instructional course lectures, video theater, live surgeries, podium presentations and research posters.Over the next several episodes we're going to be reviewing five sports medicine posters that were presented at the AAOS meeting. On this podcast we try to review the most updated literature on different sports medicine topics. So, reviewing some of the posters that were just presented at AAOS is particularly exciting for us because this is very new data. So new that most of this data has not even been published yet. We're joined by Dr. Brian Waterman to get his take on these poster presentations.Dr. Brian Waterman is a board-certified, orthopedic surgeon specializing in adult and pediatric sports medicine, cartilage restoration and joint preservation, complex knee surgery and shoulder and elbow care. He is the Chief of sports medicine at Wake Forest University and the Director of their sports medicine fellowship program. Dr. Waterman completed his orthopedic surgery residency at William Beaumont Army Medical Center and served 13 years in the U.S. Army, earning multiple honors including the Meritorious Service Medal and Army Commendation Medal. Dr. Waterman then went on to complete a sports medicine fellowship at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago. He is the team physician for Wake Forest University, the Winston-Salem Dash, U.S. Ski and Snowboard and several local high schools. Dr. Waterman is an associate editor for the Arthroscopy Journal and is on the Board of Directors for Arthroscopy Association of North America. Given his extensive experience with orthopedic research, Dr. Waterman led the sports medicine poster tour at AAOS this year, so we're looking forward to getting his unique perspective on these poster presentations.Featured Poster:Factors Associated with Return of Quadriceps Strength following ACL Reconstruction using Quad Tendon Autograft. Persistent quad strength deficit following ACL reconstruction is very concerning. It is associated with ACL retears, diminished patient-reported outcomes, lower return to sport, altered knee joint kinematics, and increased risk of osteoarthritis.The purpose of this retrospective cohort study was to identify factors that influence the return of knee extensor strength following ACL reconstruction with quad tendon autograft. Volker Musahl and colleagues at UPMC found that lower pre-op patient reported clinical scores (including higher pre-op pain level and lower self-reported function), female sex, and the use of BFR consistently post-op was associated with a lower likelihood of achieving post-op knee extensor strength symmetry in quad autograft ACL reconstructions.

Knee pain is one of the most common orthopedic complaints affecting 25 percent of adults, with osteoarthritis being the most common cause for people over 50. Oftentimes people think that not being active and just staying on the couch is the solution to preventing knee pain and injury, but this is not true. Inactivity can be just as bad for your knees as the stress of excessive high-impact exercises, and you could still end up with joint pain or injury. There are many great exercises and ways to take care of your knees over 50. You do not have to give up being active and you don't have to give up your relaxing couch time either. One of the first signs of getting older is that your joints start hurting, mainly your knees. The knees support much of our body weight, and every step you take puts pressure on your knees. The pressure on your knees is about one and a half times your total body weight. Combatting knee pain as we age is important so we can stay active and still do the things we love. I'm sharing my experience with knee pain and how, as a Fitness and Pilates coach, I helped myself and many of my clients to age-proof their knees with my 5 ways to take care of your knees over 50. With these tips for exercise and diet, you should be able to help reduce joint pain or prevent further damage. Click here to listen!

It's well established that persistent quadriceps strength deficits are common after ACL reconstruction. Despite a lot of attention, we still continue to struggle in restoring quadriceps strength after surgery.As important as quad strength is after ACL surgery, recent research is showing that strength doesn't always correlate to biomechanical changes, which is an extremely important concept to understand.In this week's episode of The Sports Physical Therapy Podcast, I talk with Dan Cobian about this and his research on lower extremity neuromuscular biomechanics after knee injury and surgery.Full Show Notes: https://mikereinold.com/quadriceps-strength-and-biomechanics-after-acl-reconstruction-with-dan-cobian/ Click Here to View My Online Courses Want to learn more from me?

In part 2 of our round-table discussion on EM Cases with sports medicine guru Dr. Ivy Cheng and orthopedic surgeon Dr. Hossein Mehdian we elucidate some key commonly missed uncommon orthopedic injuries that if mismanaged, carry significant long term morbidity. Injuries of the tendons and ligaments are often overlooked by emergency providers as relatively benign injuries and generally are not well understood. Syndesmosis Injuries typically occur in impact sports. They are missed in about 20% of cases, as x-rays findings are often subtle or absent. The mechanism, physical exam findings, such as the Hopkin's Test, and associated injuries are important to understand to help make the diagnosis and provide appropriate ED care. Distal Biceps Tendon Rupture is almost exclusively a male injury and occurs in a younger age group compared to the Proximal Biceps Rupture. It is important to distinguish these injuries as their management and outcomes are different. The mechanism and physical exam findings of Distal Biceps Tendon Rupture, such as the Hook Test, are key in this respect. Quadriceps Tendon Rupture is often misdiagnosed as a simple ‘knee sprain', but should be consideration for surgical intervention. Quadriceps tendon ruptures are more commonly seen in patients older than 40 years and are more common than patella tendon ruptures which are more commonly seen in patients under 40 years of age. Interestingly, up to 1/3 of patients present with bilateral quadriceps tendon ruptures, so comparing to the contralateral knee may be misleading. There is a spectrum of knee extensor injuries that should be understood in order to provide proper care, with the Straight-Leg-Raise Test being abnormal in all of them. This is of the most important physical exam maneuvers to perform on every ED patient with a knee injury. The x-ray findings of these injuries may be subtle or absent, and proper immobilization of these injuries is important to prevent recoil of the tendon. Patients with calf pain and Gastrocnemius Tears are often misdiagnosed as having a DVT. In fact, one small study showed that gastrocnemius tears were misattributed to DVT in 29% of patients. This confusion occurs because sometimes patients who suffer a gastrocnemius tear report a prodrome of calf tightness several days before the injury, suggesting a potential chronic predisposition. With a good history and physical, and POCUS if you're skilled at it, needless work-ups for DVT can be avoided. For well thought out approaches, pearls and pitfalls, to these 4 Commonly Missed Uncommon Orthopedic Injuries, listen to the podcast and read the rest of this blog post....
