@askdrveera: #duet with @Overtime #football #healing Which injury are female soccer players 5x more likely to get than male athletes? ACL tears! In fact, most injuries that happen to women in soccer are non-contact and many are from deceleration motions. Women have a wider Q angle, which means the angle of our hips to knees to ankles is very different from men and so we really need great hip mobility, hip stability, and recovery training. That angle creates more torque on our knees and so cutting motions create a sheeting mechanism.
