For parents
Structured recovery, stage by stage.
Both options work through the same three stages: managing load and pain, building impact tolerance, then rebuilding sports capacity. The difference is how much personalisation and physio support you want alongside it.
Structured 6-week recovery frameworks for young athletes following an appropriate diagnosis and assessment by a qualified healthcare professional.

Please read before you buy
- These are educational rehabilitation frameworks, intended for young athletes who have already been appropriately assessed and diagnosed by a qualified healthcare professional.
- They are not a substitute for individual clinical assessment, diagnosis or treatment, and they are not personalised to your athlete.
- A parent or guardian should be involved throughout, and should supervise the exercises.
- Stop and seek advice if symptoms get worse, or if any red flag appears: significant trauma, inability to weight bear, night pain, fever, unexplained weight loss, or a hot, swollen joint.
- Young athletes vary. Progress at a pace that suits the individual, and seek professional assessment if you are unsure whether this is suitable.
The three stages inside every framework
Recover
Load & Pain Management
Understand the problem and get symptoms to a manageable level.
- Understanding what the symptoms are telling you
- Monitoring pain day to day and after activity
- Modifying the parts of training that flare things up
- Awareness of total training load across clubs, school and sport
- Maintaining appropriate strength rather than stopping everything
- Avoiding unnecessary complete rest where that is appropriate
- Setting a manageable baseline to build from
Grow
Build Impact Tolerance
Rebuild strength and the ability to tolerate impact again.
- Progressive strength work for the affected area and the whole body
- Building tendon and muscle capacity over time
- Gradual exposure to impact
- Hopping and jumping progressions where appropriate
- Running progression where appropriate
- Increasing tolerance to training, not just to exercises
Perform
Rebuild Sports Capacity
Rebuild the qualities their sport actually asks for.
- Running and sprinting capacity
- Jumping, landing and change of direction
- Sport-specific loading and drills
- Progressing training volume sensibly
- Considerations for returning to full training
- Considerations for returning to competition
Progress through the stages is guided by symptoms, capacity and the individual young athlete, not by the number of weeks completed. Some move faster, some need longer in a stage, and that is normal.
Not sure which one?
If your athlete is still in a lot of pain, or has been struggling for more than a few weeks, the personalised 12-week option is usually the better fit, you'll get a proper assessment and the stages judged with a physio. The £59 6-Week Recovery Framework suits a confirmed diagnosis where you want a clear structure to work through yourselves. It is educational, not individual clinical advice.

For parents
Before you buy, questions parents ask.
Honest answers to the things that keep sports parents up at night. If your question isn't here, get in touch and ask.
Is this just growing pains? Should I be worried?
Pain during a growth spurt is common and usually manageable, but "growing pains" is not a plan. Most growth-related pain settles well when training load is adjusted and strength work is added. What matters is knowing which pattern you are dealing with, and watching for the warning signs that need a face-to-face assessment.
Can they still play?
Often, in some form. Complete rest tends to settle pain for a week or two and then it returns, because nothing has been built in the meantime. Most young athletes do better reducing the parts of training that flare things up, keeping what they tolerate, and adding strength work alongside.
How much is too much?
Look at the whole week, not one session: club, school, matches and any extra training. Pain that settles quickly and does not carry into the next day usually means the load was manageable. Pain that lingers the following morning is the signal to pull the load back a little.
How long will this take?
It depends on the condition, how long it has been going on and how much they play. Growth-related pain often takes six to twelve weeks of consistent work to settle and rebuild capacity. Anyone promising a fixed timeline is guessing.
Is strength training safe at their age?
Yes, when it is coached and progressed properly. Well-supervised resistance training in young athletes is supported by the research and is one of the better things you can do for their long-term health and injury risk. It is the loading spikes and lack of strength that tend to cause problems, not the strength work itself.
How do we know when to progress?
By what their body is doing, not by the calendar. Each stage of the framework has criteria: symptoms behaving predictably, strength work being tolerated, then impact and running being tolerated. If a stage still feels hard, staying there longer is the right call.
Do we need a scan?
Most growth-related pain is diagnosed from the story and a physical assessment, not imaging, and scans in young athletes often show normal changes that can worry families unnecessarily. Imaging is useful when specific red flags are present, and that is a decision for the clinician assessing them.
What if the pain keeps coming back every season?
Recurring pain usually means the underlying capacity was never rebuilt, or training load climbs faster than their body adapts. That is the gap the strength, impact and sport-capacity work is designed to close.
When do we need to see someone in person?
See a clinician in person if there was a significant injury or trauma, if they cannot weight bear, if there is night pain, unexplained weight loss, fever, or swelling and heat around a joint, if pain is getting steadily worse, or if you are simply worried. Our content and frameworks are education and exercise support, not a diagnosis.
What is the difference between the free guide and the £59 framework?
The free guide helps you understand the condition: what it is, why it happens, what makes it worse, when to get them assessed, and how our three stages work. The £59 framework gives you the structure: a six-week format with phases, load and pain guidance, progression criteria, impact and sport-capacity progressions, demonstrations and checklists.
What do we get for £59 versus £395?
The £59 recovery framework is condition-specific and the same for everyone who buys it, and you work through it yourselves. The £395 option is twelve weeks built around your athlete after a 1:1 video assessment, with bi-weekly physio check-ins, changes as they progress, message access, the exercise video library and return-to-sport screening.
Do I have to be sporty or know the exercises?
No. Everything is written for parents, with coaching points, sets, reps and video demonstrations. Your job is to help them stay consistent, not to coach it perfectly.
