290 | The Fear Of Damaging Your New Graft After ACL Surgery

In this episode we get into the fear that hits almost every ACLer in the weeks after surgery, the quiet worry that one wrong step, one weird zing, one slip in the shower could undo everything. We share a message from a listener that fueled this episode, and we walk through the real moments so many people have panicked over, from a dog running into the knee to losing balance on crutches, and we also put numbers to the graft to help you understand why you might be more resilient than you think. So is that new graft really as fragile as it feels, or is the fear itself the bigger threat to your recovery?_________Want a clear plan for your ACL rehab?1 on 1 Remote ACL Coaching is for ACLers who are tired of guessing.
