Relationship between Mechanism, Neuromuscular Imbalance and Neuromuscular intervention for ACL injury prevention in Female Athletes.

Injury Mechanism Component	Underlying Neuromuscular Imbalance	Targeted Neuromuscular Intervention Component
Knee adduction during landing	Ligament dominance	Train for proper technique
Low flexion angle in landing	Quadriceps dominance	Strength\en posterior chain
Asymmetrical landings	Leg dominance	Train side/side symmetry
Inability to control center of mass	Trunk dominance (“Core Dysfunction”)	Core stability & perturb training
