Start with the demands of your sport. A tennis player may need to change direction and reach overhead. A runner may want to build distance or manage hills. Tell your therapist about your schedule and previous injuries.
What can I work on?
Depending on your goals and assessment, a plan may include strength, balance, coordination, and practice with movements your sport requires. A therapist can help you choose a starting point and schedule practice alongside your usual training.
How can I make the plan practical?
Choose a goal you can track, such as handling a change of direction more comfortably or building consistency with your strength routine. Review how training feels and adjust your plan when your sport, schedule, or symptoms change.
