This is not the end. Getting injured doesn’t mean you’re done—avoid the mindset that you’ll never perform again.

Silence the noise. Ignore the crowd of conflicting advice and focus on your trusted team and your personal goals.

Incomplete rehab is a major contributor to re-injury and lost performance.
Recovery is a spectrum, not a switch—every phase requires specific attention.
Rehab must be driven by objective data, not just subjective milestones.
Communication between practitioners is vital for a successful return.
Physical therapists must adopt a performance-based mindset.
Patients need to act as their own performance directors.
