Are you aware that girls tear the Anterior Cruciate Ligament in the knee at a rate 8 times that of male athletes?
The unique physiology of women is to blame for this phenomenon, and strength and conditioning at an early age is key to warding of the surgeon's knife.
I am a strength coach with Athletic Edge in Glen Burnie, MD, and I have a program specifically designed to strengthen the muscles that support the knees. My program will help to prevent ACL injury, while also increasing leg strength, speed and agility. Having been through an arm surgery myself, injury prevention is one of my biggest priorities.
For more information, read this ESPN Article on ACL injury. Also visit the Athletic Edge website to learn more about what we do to train and educate our athletes and parents.

Do we have to come to Glen Burnie or could you come to some of our winter indoor work outs? And do you care if we were to video tape your sessions with our team so we can make copies to give to our players and parents?

I could certainly come to your practices, and it would be no problem to videotape the sessions. I make it a priority to educate everyone so that you can practice injury prevention at home when being with a trainer isn't practical. |
