Neurocognitive & Ecological Motor Learning Considerations for the 11+ ACL Injury Prevention Program: A Commentary by Dustin R. Grooms, Mario Bizzini, Holly Silvers-Granelli, Anne Benjaminse

“…It consists of 15 exercises that target the most common injury sites, such as the knee, ankle, and groin. However, the implementation and adherence of the 11+ remain suboptimal, and recent compelling data indicates underlying mechanisms of injury risk related to neural control of movement may not be adequately targeted. …”
