There is substantial variability in rehabilitation protocols following PCL and meniscus repair surgery. There is often a conservative period where we minimize or avoid hamstring activity.

In this episode, we discuss the science behind this and how we integrate hamstring exercises into our rehabilitation protocols for these patients.
