Louw, M. (2022, March 22). Exercises for torn ACL: Anterior cruciate ligament injury. Sports
https://www.sports-injury-physio.com/post/torn-acl-exercises
The article starts off addressing how to protect your knees using body awareness, strength, and
balance. The main focus of the article is to inform athletes what exercises work best for avoiding
tearing of an ACL. It lists the different exercises that the HSS recommends. The article even
includes different photographs of the exercises recommended to help those with more of a visual
understanding. Another piece of information the article includes, is the different ways to land
safely from jumping or falling. This section also includes photographs to demonstrate the
different ways to land on your feet. I would say that this article is helpful in many ways to
athletes, parents, and teenagers. Although the article was highly informational, It is more based
on graphics and photos rather than just a bunch of information. I would recommend it to those
looking for a more photographic source of information. For me, that is just what I was looking
for considering the wide range of pictures and information I was not firmiliar with before reading
the article. This article is especially useful towards my project because it gives me information
on the importance of stretching as well as catching yourself before you get hurt. Knowing and
understanding these helpful tips could prevent many ACL injuries or injuries in the knee.
