Adolescent Female Athlete

Program for female athletes aged 12-18 addressing ACL injury risk reduction, growth-related flexibility changes, body image awareness, and sport-specific conditioning within developmental constraints.

Clinical note: Female athletes have 4-6x higher ACL injury rates than males. Neuromuscular training (landing mechanics, deceleration, cutting) is the single most effective prevention intervention. Body-positive framing is essential at this age.
