Female basketball players tear their ACL far more often than male players. In this episode, Gratas and I explain why: the Q angle, hormonal changes during the menstrual cycle, and the two factors you can change, which are strength and landing mechanics. We also cover three simple tests you can do at home, how to progress strength and plyometric work, and a five-minute warm-up that every player, parent, and coach can use.
