ACL injuries are one of the most common orthopedic injuries because they can happen with both contact and non-contact situations. Knowing the right ACL exercises and rehab tips can really help you to speed up your recovery.

In this video, I'll show you how the anterior cruciate ligament functions and what causes it to fail in the first place. When you know the function of the ligament you can get a better appreciation for what you need to do to strengthen the knee before it happens.

With almost 70 percent of the ACL tears happening in non contact situations, learning how to control your body and strengthen your knees using exercises that keep your feet on the ground is key. Since you likely injured your ACL in standing, running or cutting, we need to get you off the open chain exercises and to start using closed chain exercises.

My favorite exercise for ACL rehab is a front squat. You don't have to load up the weight at all at the start. You will gradually build up your strength over time. The fact that this exercise helps to put your center of gravity a bit in front of your body helps to take some of the strain off the ligament that you would get from leg extensions.

To completely fortify your body against injuries like ACL tears, you need to train like an athlete. You can build ripped athletic muscle, six pack abs, and a strong functional body...if you train the right way. Let pro athlete physical therapist Jeff Cavaliere show you exactly how with his ATHLEAN-X Training System used by today's top pros. You can find it at http://athleanx.com right now.
