Abstract: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is one of the most common knee injuries for most athletes and sports-active people. Arthroscopic reconstruction is the preferred treatment. Rebuilding ACL for the rapid return to pre-injury level movement and function is an important goal for athletes. In this paper, the use of isokinetic strength training methods for athletes after ACL injury rehabilitation effect is reported. Thirty-one knee anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction athletes were divided into two groups and were respectively subjected to 12 weeks' traditional rehabilitation training and isokinetic strength training. It was found that constant strength training of the knee joint could improve the muscle strength of the athletes more quickly which provides better rehabilitation training for the postoperative recovery of athletes to return to the track.
