Hi guys,
I did a search on "ACL" and it appears that a few of you guys have had torn ACLs and gotten back into climbing not long after your surgery. I have a surgery coming up on Friday Apr 9 and was wondering if you could talk a bit about the kind of rehab you did that had you climbing again?
Going in to the surgery, I have strong legs. For example, I was able to squat 245 lbs the week before. I have kept up with regular weight lifting (squats, deadlifts etc) so pre-op conditioning is not a problem.
What did you focus on for physio/rehab POST surgery? stationary bike? range of motion etc? I am going to a physio and will ask my surgeon for advice as well but I am looking at collecting info from all possible avenues and then tailoring my program as I see fit (without overdoing it and risking further injury of course).
Thanks
