Sportsmetrics™ is the first ACL injury prevention program scientifically proven to decrease serious knee ligament injuries in female athletes. With Anterior Cruciate Ligament, or ACL, injury rates that are 2-10 times higher in female athletes than in male athletes, it is time to TAKE ACTION and get involved with Sportsmetrics™–the ACL injury prevention program with performance enhancement techniques. Sportsmetrics™ is not just another ACL injury prevention program.

The research team at Cincinnati SportsMedicine Research and Education Foundation know that athletes’ schedules are tight, and that making time for ACL injury prevention conditioning is not always a priority in the off season. In addition, even the best off season conditioning requires in season attention, in order for athletes to maintain their desired level of fitness. With this in mind, the Sportsmetrics™ Warm-up for Injury Prevention and Performance program was developed.
WIPP is a specially designed ACL injury prevention warm-up, incorporating the four components of Sportsmetrics™ for maximum efficiency and conditioning. It integrates the proven components of Sportsmetrics™ ACL injury prevention for 20 minutes of nonstop muscle and joint preparation, plyometrics, strength and flexibility. WIPP also includes agility drills that can facilitate a quick transition into practice activities.
