Hi, I´m Dom!
I created SPORTYKNEE to share my insights out of several knee injuries with you. SPORTYKNEE is based on my practical experience with knee operations and rehabilitations and upgraded by self studies and a certified personal trainer education.
I believe sports has the power to boost ourselves. And I know that we are sometimes not able to do so – with negative impact to our lives. This is what I experienced while facing several knee injuries over some years. I used to play soccer since I was a child and stood 4+ times a week on the ground. This was my passion, outlet and community. Suffering a cruciate ligament rupture my ambitions were stopped and I needed to recover about 1 year.
Strongly relying to doctors and physiotherapists I´ve done all I was told to and tried to be back on the field as soon as possible. This did not really work out what led me into a quite difficult phase. I regularly went through short-term success and pushbacks again. In the end, I faced a second cruciate ligament rupture and a cartilage lesion in the same knee. More than once negative thoughts came over me.
Step-by-step I started to question my current situation, read books and got in contact with several doctors and physiotherapists. I gained out of my real experience with different knee challenges and additionally became a certified personal trainer with focus on sport rehabilitation. I continuously stabilize my knee situation and am up to come reliably back to sports again. That doesn´t mean that I will never ever get knee challenges – but now I know how I can handle them.
This should enforce you to also accept your knee challenge, look forward and make your desires happen – SPORTYKNEE will help you with this.
