What Happens When You Train Without An ACL Like Nicky Ryan?

Gary Berger — Fri, 05 May 2023 18:59:29 +0000

I recently saw an interview with professional Jiu-Jitsu athlete and member of “B-Team,” Nicky Ryan. Nicky Ryan and “The B-Team” were on episode 363 of @lexfridman podcast and they were discussing his knee injuries. Nicky explained his rationale for not fixing his ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) and how he has continued to train without this ligament in the knee.

I go through some ideas on the purpose of the ACL, my recommendations on whether you should have surgery to repair your ACL, some myths and facts about what can happen to your knee if you do or don’t get the ACL fixed, ideas on BJJ longevity, rehab, and prehab.

I also discuss a research article with some interesting ideas on what happens to your knee when you sustain an injury such as the ACL and whether having surgery can decrease the risk of arthritis in the knee.

Here is the link to the article that was mentioned: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7083996/

A Comprehensive Guide To Returning To BJJ After ACL Surgery

Gary Berger — Fri, 24 Feb 2023 17:00:09 +0000

In this video, I answer a question from Kim, who was asking advice about how to get back to BJJ training after having an ACL reconstruction surgery in her knee.

The ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) is a ligament responsible for helping stabilize your shin bone relative to your knee and in many cases requires surgical repair if injured badly enough.

ACL Reconstruction can vary in duration and has. fairly lengthy rehab and recovery time. If you have had ACL surgery this video will be helpful, and if you’ve injured your knee and are wanting to safely get back to training BJJ, then this video has some important information to help your return to the mats.
