234 | When Sh*t Happens in ACL Rehab: What to Do (and What NOT to Do)


Listen Later

In this episode, we talk about one of the most underrated but guaranteed parts of ACL rehab. Sh*t will happen. Whether it’s a flare-up, a groin strain, a missed session, or life throwing curveballs—sh*t happens. I share my personal story of a recent setback, the emotional rollercoaster that followed, and how I navigated it using mindset and movement strategies. You’ll learn how to reframe these “detours,” apply practical decision-making tools like the traffic light system, and understand why having an adaptable plan and expert support makes all the difference. This is the episode every ACLer—and clinician—needs when rehab feels anything but perfect.
