3 / 6 / 12 monthsFactors Influencing Recovery Speed
↑ What speeds up recovery
Milestone-Based Progression
• Strength, hop quality and control should progress in phases. • Following the right sequence protects long-term outcome.
Consistent Strength Work
• Regular lower-limb loading is essential for return to sport. • Small, consistent gains matter more than random big sessions.
↓ What slows down recovery
Rushing Return to Sport
• Returning too early can create major setbacks or reinjury risk. • Function must match the demands of the sport.
Persistent Quad Inhibition
• When quad strength lags, gait and landing mechanics suffer. • That slows higher-level recovery.
How do we estimate outcomes?
We combine insights from published research, clinical guidelines, practitioner experience, and typical rehabilitation timelines to map out common recovery trajectories. The ranges presented are general estimates only and should not be interpreted as guaranteed results.
