We lay out a clear, test-driven plan for returning to gymnastics after an Achilles injury, from strength benchmarks and load progressions to surface mixing and smart skill choices. We also explain why removing a single back pass can cut risk without cutting value.

• why we avoid midroll ads and keep focus
• clearance, range, and strength symmetry before plyos
• force plate isometrics and practical alternatives
• Baxter continuum to map Achilles load tiers
• weekly split balancing plyos and heavy strength
• soft surfaces first with low volume
• mixing surfaces before raising intensity
• event caps and next-day symptom checks
• modifying floor passes to reduce risk
• timelines, expectations, and communication with coaches

We appreciate you listening!
