Returning to sport after an injury
A graded return that respects tissue healing and training load tends to be safer than rushing back.

Feeling better is not the same as being ready. Strength, movement quality and confidence usually need to be rebuilt in stages before full training resumes.
A typical staged return
- Restore range of motion and reduce irritability
- Rebuild strength and control
- Add sport-specific skills at low intensity
- Gradually increase intensity and volume
Each stage has clear checks to pass before moving on, and timelines vary between people and injuries.
Share your sport with the team
Tell your clinician your sport, position and competition calendar so the plan reflects what your body will be asked to do.
