I’m a gymnast and I tore my acl about 1 year and a half ago, I had to retire for 10 months maybe and go to therapy. In therapy they used to tell me that I needed strength on my legs since my knees used to pull to the side instead of pulling up. Around November I stopped going to therapy and began going to the gym, and around February I began gymnastics again, but several times my knees just give up, it feels like they cannot handle my weight and aren’t stable. Yesterday I was doing a simple leap and I fell on my right leg (my good knee) and it staggered, right now I have a lot of pain and I can’t even stand up without pain. I really want to continue doing gymnastics so I will try to do this exercises to improve my strength, thanks a lot and please give me tips for this situation. (also sorry if my English is bad, it’s not my mother language).

Guy is humble he even replyed to his audience

Thank you so much for sharing these exercises.I've torn my acl 5yrs ago,no surgery.I've survived but a few weeks ago,I've bent it and heard a loud pop!it hurts a bit now and i'm wearing a knee support and soing these these exercises will help me regain the strength of my knee again.Thanks again and keep making more videos so you could help others like me recover w/out spending so much money in physio

Great video doc tore my acl a few years ago playing soccer and had it reconstructed fully and rehabbed however I’m fairly sure I had a retear and literally just decided to stop playing out of frustration hopefully these exercises can help me gain some confidence in my knee again

Thank you sir its been over 5 yrs and some months now since my acl torn. I have been receiving the wrong treatment and about a year ago i found out that it was a ligament injury and i was adviced to see a physio but their prices were to high . I'm hoping this helps me recover quickly. Thanks for this video i was scared about this whole thing but seeing this video and the comments has really made me happy and hopeful

Great exercises i feel it working right after finishing thanks a lot

These work outs have been helping me rehab my injury 💯

I had acl surgery years ago but after a I rehabbing for 8 months I got back into football and tore it again I’ve been 3 years with my torn acl and I’ve have major pain and I can see muscle loss in my leg hopefully I’ll come back in a month after these exercises and I’m better

I dont have an acl injury but i do have wrist and ankle pain love your channel sooooooooooooo much love your exercises soooooooooooooo much Thanks Ramya

Thanks so much doc. I had been searching for such exercises for a long time.

It was very helpful to relieve my knee pain

I have grade 1 ACL injury , been feeling the wobblyness since 8 months , in beginning i thought it may be temporary , after sometime when i saw no improvement i thought it may be be vitamin D deficiency so i got it tested , turns out i had severe vit d and b12 deficiency. Ate suppliments for few months yet no improvement in my knee. All this time i was working out and doing heavy walking. At last i decided to get my knee checked. Got an x ray , nothing showed up , bones were all right. Then the doctor recommended to get an mri scan which i got and results were obvious Grade 1 ACL injury Minor chondromalacia patella injury The doc told me to do core strengthening , he said doing planks consistently should be enough. I started doing planks and hurt my back. Then i looked for something which didn't require planking and here i am , i did my first session today (apart from the ball exercise because I don't have it) My back isn't that hurt should heal in few days. Thinking to do these exercises and planks together. Hope it works out because i was working out to drop fat and wanted to be physically active. Thanks for the video. I'll be providing updates weekly.

I had a partial ACL tear while playing games with my friends. And I don't want to go for surgery , as doctor has said that physiotherapy exercises might help recovering it in next few months. I hope I recover from your videos in next few months. Pls pray for me 🙏

Tore my ACL and fractured my femur along with other ligaments. Fell on the left leg from a 5 ft drop. 52 yo male 208 lbs 5’10” As writing this today, 2 weeks and 2 days ago was the accident. Dr didn’t recommend surgery after reviewing imagery. The leg is finally starting to not be so swollen and I’m able to slowly walk a little without crutches. The back of the calf from the knee down to the ankle is tight and sore. I’m hoping I’m not jumping into using the leg too soon but, I appreciate the video you made to show us what exercises to do for this type of injury. Thanks!

I love your posts! Your microphone is a little weak, you may want to invest in some microphone strengthening purchasing!

Hello Dr Beckstrand. Can I switch these excercises for Hamstring curl machine, leg extension machine, hip thrust machine (all with light weights) and leg raises on the pull up bar? I feel like it will be more convenient for me since I have a gym nearby. Thank you!

This exercise helped me lot, thanks from India

MCL ligament exercise

Thank you Guys 🙏🏽🙂🙂🙂

Thanks very much 💟

I have complete ACL torn with some hairline fractures and hospital decided to do only physio, not surgery, they said that I don't need ACL, only athletes need it, and not even all athletes. They gave me 2 series exercises, first was good and there was improvement, but second series of exercises made me knee more sore and more swollen and there is actually a regress now. The worse exercise is sit to stand with band. Physio insist that I should do it. But I'm not very sure?

I torn my ACL please help me I cannt afford surgery.

Thanks for the information. I had a ligament injury on my left knee 2 years ago. And I have not done surgery on that part and sometimes I have pain on that part. I cannot run ,dance and jump. Please Sir give me some suggestion

Could you do a video about treating pain around the collarbone area(shoulder, neck)?

Acl tears make it so you will never be the same again. I partially tore mine around 7 years ago and I’m still terrified to make movements I know will stress my knee.

Make video on After acl tear surgery exercise

I think this will help me to be fine and my knee back to normal

Thank You Bro for sharing your video

I no longer have an acl, and as I’m 73 it won’t be rebuilt. I went to physio for several months and I can now walk with only a minor limp. I can ride a bike and go on easier hikes. I would like to strengthen my leg in order to return to skiing, first cross-country, then perhaps downhill. Are there particular exercises you could recommend? Thank you.

My injury is one-and-a-half year old, does it reduce by doing these exercises.

i got a grade 1 acl injury on left knee in Feb end. Its been more than 5 months , been doing physiotherapy and able to walk almost normally. But I am still unable to any strength training including squats leg extensions. I don't know what to do now ... thinking maybe need a surgery after all :(

Thanks, very helpful 🙏🏅

Pls make a video on MCL tear rehab

Thank you so much!

Hey do you think you could do a video on bow legs posture? Love your channel!

Question: Do people with completely torn ACLs use these exercises forever? Or do you recommend for only partially torn ACLs? Avoiding doc. Terrified of surgery.

I had a meniscus tear about six or seven years ago . I did not have surgery, just some exercises. Now I’m largely free of any pain except occasionally when I climb stairs . Will these work for me ?

I am having pain while bending my knee for doing some those exercises, othera seems good.

I love your videos thank you

@toneandtighten thanks a lot for these, tore my acl a year ago and for whatever reason haven’t been able to get the surgery done, how often would you recommend doing these exercises? Thanks

Thank you!

Mildly bulky ACL with T2/ PD fat sat hyperintense signal, s/o Partial mucoid degeneration - this was my MRI result for both knees. Should i do the exercises mentioned in the video?

How long should I wait after my injury to start trying some of these exercises? I can already put some weight on my injured leg, about 2 weeks since initial injury.

@Tone and Tighten, when doimg the quad sets, I can hear and feel a small pop each time I press my knee down but it doesnt hurt, is it ok to continue doing this exercise?

Shld i do these exercises once a day or twice a day?

Hello! So I actually tore my ACL back in 2017 and had surgery done on it and then had a second surgery about a year later on my meniscus (some of it was removed) all on the same knee. I did PT after I had my first surgery but haven’t done so since. I exercise and do plenty cardio throughout my week but I want to start training for soccer soon. I’m just afraid my knee won’t be ready for pivotal movements. Are there any exercises you recommend (and can upload) I should do to help strengthen my knee? Thank you!! Look forwarding to hearing from you soon

Thanks for these exercises! I tore my ACL last year, so my knee still feels wonky 🥲 Even in minute form, these exercises helped a lot 😎👏🏽

Hi doc I am football player I got my knee injured during playing football my regional doc hasn't said it's an ligament tear I don't have swelling or too intense pain but slightly I feel off about my knees. How many days I have to take rest to get back to my football?

I tore (complete tear) my acl 4 years ago…. I also broke my pelvis that day… so they kind of ignored my knee… I ended up tearing my meniscus as well a few months ago… finally got a mri to confirm both…. I have some weakness (and burning pain) and locking up after awkward movements occasionally…. My doctor says I should get surgery but I’d really rather not …. Is it possible to have a “normal life” without it?

Sir I had an accident about 3-4 years back. That time my right leg patela was displaced. The doctors helped it set back to normal and restricted movements for a month. That time it felt I was alright. But about an year ago there was a slight pain in my knee. There was some cranking sound when tried to bend or stretch my leg. So I thought I was creating pressure on the leg and tried to use more of my left leg to avoid the pain. That didn't work and I had to get a physical therapist who made my knee set back forcibly and tied bandages. This treatment went on for a month. But now still I have the same cranking on my right knee and I strain my left knee a lot. I am just 19 year old. Will these exercises help me with my issue?

Sir Iam accident complete acl injury excerise better operation complesary

My question sir how many days for this exercise
