An estimated 150,000 Americans suffer ACL injuries each year in the United States. A growing number of them are female athletes. While we know there is a huge increase in injuries in females compared to males, we don’t have all the answers as to why yet.

What do we have? A program to prevent ACL injuries before they happen.

In The ACL Solution, renowned orthopedic surgeon Robert G. Marx and physical therapist Grethe Myklebust present a practical and effective prevention program for all athletes, both professional and amateur, that can be easily incorporated into a regular warm up routines.

For those unfortunate enough to suffer from an ACL injury, there is ample advice on the available treatment options.
