I'm a big skier too (2 torn ACL's from skiing...). Have you seen my other blog posts on what I've been doing for rehab? There are a few under <a href="http://www.you-be-healthy.com/blog/category/my-knee-surgery-journey/" rel="nofollow">My Knee Surgery Journey</a>. Swimming is great for ACL rehab. I have not incorporated it into my rehab as I am doing mostly biking and hiking. I actually just got in from my second single track mountain bike ride and I'm at week 7.5! The <a href="http://www.you-be-healthy.com/blog/2009/06/the-power-plate-acceleration-training-amazing/" rel="nofollow">Power Plate</a> is just incredible. If there is a gym in your area that has Power Plate classes, I highly recommend getting in ASAP. It'll speed up your rehab big time. I went to physio twice a week until last week and now will go once a week for another month. Plus I go to the gym every day and do my leg exercises (strength and balance for proprioception). Hope this helps! Kim Hi Luli, Thanks for your post! I’m a big skier too (2 torn ACL’s from skiing…). Have you seen my other blog posts on what I’ve been doing for rehab?
