In this episode, we dive into the .300 mindset. One that I think many of you will resonate with. We over strive for perfection as humans or these all-or-nothing mentalities. This mindset helps us reset our expectations, especially in such a long, hard, and nonliear process like ACL rehab. It also dives into how playing the long game allows to better find this .300 vs. expecting it right off the bat (see what I did there?)

In this episode, we cover the Never Zero mindset and how it's key in this ACL rehab process. We dive into how Newton's first law and this mindset connect, how momentum - even just a little - matters a lot, the nonlinearity of ACL rehab, and some really practical ways you can put this into play for 2025 (or whenever you're listening to this) and your ACL rehab.

In this episode, we dive into this topic about the gap and the gain. I really love this concept and it's a big one in ACL rehab. It's easy to look at what's ahead. Here, we share an ACLer breaking down, redirecting towards the gain vs. gap mindset, and unpacking this idea into some practical strategies for you to put it in play. A big way that pays massive dividends, especially from a mindset component.

In this episode, we cover the 80/20 rule and how this can be incredibly effective in helping design efficient, personalized, and effective ACL programs. We dive into this rule (or also known as the Pareto Principle), how this applies to modern day and different domains of society, how it can be applied to your ACL rehab, and be incredibly helpful as an audit - whether you're a PT, ATC, coach, or ACLer. Keeping the main thing the main thing.

In this episode, we dive into comparing time vs. criteria in the ACL rehab process. We talk about how things have been done, how that might get us into trouble, and how setting up criteria and targets can be an absolute game-changer in this process.

In this episode, we are breaking down some barriers around the perception of the older ACL athlete. We dive into how older ACLers might be treated differently, an older ACLer's story, building your ACL team appropriately, knowing when you need to make a shift, and deciding which hard you'd like to cross and when. If you may categorize yourself as "older", I encourage you to give this a listen as this might even shift your ACL rehab entirely.

In this episode, we have our annual AnnKNEEversary episode. This is where we take a deep dive on a theme, and this year, it's about the little moments. Life and ACL rehab can feel like it's trying to get to the next thing. For this episode, we break down a different perspective and a useful strategy that can be helpful if you feel that you're in a rut or seeing more bad than good recently.

In this episode, we cover range of motion regressions that might happen during ACL rehab. ACLers might achieve their target ROM and then move on to the next without ever revisiting. Sometimes this may lead to a regression. We tackle some ways to self-test yourself and make sure that you avoid being one of these athletes that has that regression in the first place.

In this episode, we discuss how to be adaptive in the ACL rehab process. Life things will come up, sometimes you'll have more time, sometimes less, and different seasons come and go, which means goals and the plan needs to adjust with it. This can be a massive game-changer in setting you up for success during a hard season or possibly failure by overreaching and certain expectations.

In this episode, we dive into how to handle the question "how are you doing" in ACL rehab. While it might seem straight forward, this process is long. And, there are times where you won't feel like answering this question. But, we need to make sure we inform our support system, but do so in a way that we can make sure we are putting our mental health first.
