In an attempt to elucidate the biomechanical and neuromuscular risk factors associated with
anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in female athletes, numerous authors have …

Despite the identification of effective anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury prevention
exercise programs, female athletes remain at a 4-to 6-fold greater risk of ACL injury …

Objective: To present the rationale and detailed techniques for the application of exercises
targeted to prevent anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in high-risk female athletes …

Prevention of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is likely the most effective strategy to
reduce undesired health consequences including reconstruction surgery, long-term …

Although anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are not gender specific, they do occur at a
significantly greater rate in females. Biomechanical and neuromuscular deficits in females …

Since 1996, when the first report of sex differences in neuromuscular function appeared in
the literature with the aim of understanding why physically active females are at greater risk …

This paper examines the effectiveness of implementing neuromuscular and proprioceptive
training programs in female athletes and their ability to decrease the incidence of anterior …

A SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER number of noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears
have been observed in women's basketball as compared with men's basketball (2, 3, 19) …

Female athletes are at 3.5 times risk of sustaining a non-contact ACL injury compared with
males. Research has shown that this gender discrepancy results from differences in …

Female athletes are four to six times more likely to sustain an anterior cruciate ligament
(ACL) injury than male athletes. Since the enactment of Title IX, male athletic participation at …
