reconstruction (ACLR). The objective of this study was to assess the impact of quadriceps …

Clinical Scenario: Interventions aimed at safely overloading the quadriceps muscle after
anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction are essential to reducing quadriceps muscle …

Objective Even some time after a ruptured ACL has been reconstructed thigh musculature
atrophy, voluntary activation, and knee-extensor strength deficits may be encountered. The …

Purpose To determine the most effective practices for quadriceps strengthening after ACL
reconstruction. Methods An electronic search has been performed for the literature …

Objectives To investigate the effect of sex on measures of quadriceps strength, rate of torque
development, and knee function during the first year following ACLR. Design Cross …

Background: Quadriceps neuromuscular function is negatively affected after anterior
cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The specific effect that the ACLR has on the …

OBJECTIVE: To describe the changes in quadriceps and hamstrings muscle strength in the
uninvolved limb of male professional and recreational athletes during rehabilitation after …

Background: Quadriceps dysfunction after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is
common and may affect return to sport due to resulting muscle atrophy and muscle …
