In this episode, we tackle a widespread problem in the ACL rehab space: the drop-off in support and structure between the early stages and mid-late stages. We unpack why this happens—from insurance visit limits to gaps in clinic skillsets and facilities—and how this gray zone aka "the gap" leaves ACLers feeling uncertain, unsupported, and stuck. More importantly, we outline a practical 3-question audit (testing, planning, and expert guidance) to assess whether you’re truly on track or flying blind. Whether you’re an athlete navigating rehab or a clinician trying to level up your care, this is a must-listen episode that calls out the standard and shows how we can do better.
