Which of the following is a recommended strategy to minimise reversibility for an athlete following a knee injury?

  1. Eliminating all forms of exercise while setting realistic goals
  2. Increasing rest days and maintaining psychological wellbeing
  3. Remaining active and gradually increasing intensity upon returning to training
  4. Suddenly increasing the intensity of each session to compensate for the reduced time spent training

\(C\)

Show Worked Solution
  • C is correct: Gradual activity resumption and progressive intensity increases effectively minimise fitness loss (reversibility) after injury.

Other Options:

  • A is incorrect: Complete inactivity accelerates deconditioning.
  • B is incorrect: Excess rest contributes to deconditioning.
  • D is incorrect: This approach risks re-injury and overtraining.
