Plyometric Training May Reduce ACL Injury Risk

Past research suggests that poor dynamic balance and knee proprioception can increase an athlete’s risk for a non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. In this study, researchers observed that female badminton players who participated in a six-week plyometric training program experienced improvements with respect to both dynamic balance and knee proprioception.
