This is not a gym...

It's a home for athletes, Injured or performing. taken in Miller Street, North Sydney by @athletesauthority

We asked 16 injured footballers one thing: what's it actually like?

Turns out rehab isn't just physical.

It's losing your identity as a player.
Missing the changing room more than the game.
Quietly holding back without telling anyone.
Saying you're "fine" while pointing at someone else who isn't.
Not knowing the timeline, or what's waiting on the other side.

If you're working with injured athletes: ask directly, show them progress instead of just reassuring them, keep them involved, and be honest when you don't have the answers.

The injury is never the whole story. by @athletesauthority

From day one to game day.
From the physio table to the training floor.
From no direction to a clear plan.
From doing it alone to doing it with people who get it.

We have you covered, no matter where you are.

Rehab isn't a journey you should be guessing,
and it's not one you should go through alone.

Don't wait to start writing your story back to your best ✍️ taken in Miller Street, North Sydney by @athletesauthority

Four months have passed and your surgeon told you that you should be running.

You’ve seen your physio a handful of times and you’ve been told it looks good to go.

But in yourself? You don’t feel the same.

Here's why: you haven't seen any evidence your knee can handle what you're about to ask of it.

Testing gives you that evidence.

Are you strong enough?

Are you powerful enough?

Can you get in and out of positions your sport demands?

When the numbers go up, confidence follows. And confidence is what lets you actually perform.

Running isn't a low-load task.

4-5× bodyweight through the knee. Every stride. Hundreds of times a km.

Jumping raises the ceiling. Single-leg hops and drop jumps hit 9×+.

But peak isn't the whole story. The demand on the knee is three things:
→ How hard it hits
→ How fast it hits
→ How often it repeats

So in rehab we:
    1    Build absolute force
    2    Expose before you expect
    3    Progress magnitude, rate and volume
    4    Bridge the gap from gym to field

Know the number. Set the target.

Drop any question's below. Let's discuss 👇 taken in Miller Street, North Sydney by @athletesauthority

We are always looking for ways to layer in improvements for our Athletes in their programs, to give them that edge you cannot get anywhere else.

We are stoked to officially have @neubie_performance on board at Athletes Authority 🤝

Here's a reactive change of direction drill I've been using with some end-stage ACL'ers.

It's good to put the athletes in both positions - as a defender and an attacker.

As an attacker they get to show their strengths - and their biases.

As a defender, it exposes weaknesses when they need to react to another person.

Can they regain control of the situation?

Are there any drills you're using at the minute?

Let me know below. by @athletesauthority

"Wiped" isn't a diagnosis. It's a symptom with five different causes.

Central or peripheral. Systemic, psychological, metabolic, neuromuscular - each one shows up differently, recovers on a different timeline, and needs a different response.

Push through systemic fatigue and you might be fine. Push through neuromuscular fatigue at the same load and you're compounding it.

And fatigue itself isn't the enemy. Planned overreaching is the plan working - a dip, then a bounce back within days. Unplanned fatigue that lingers for weeks is a different problem.

Overtraining syndrome is a different one again.
The question isn't "are they fatigued."

It's which kind, and does it match what you asked them to do. by @athletesauthority
