To prevent anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, it is crucial to implement appropriate exercise programs tailored to the specific sport being engaged in. Exercises aimed at strengthening the muscles of the legs, hips, pelvis, and lower abdomen can provide a protective effect against such injuries. Furthermore, technical training for movements such as turning, sudden stops, jumping, and landing are also effective strategies in preventing ACL injuries.

However, there is no scientific evidence to suggest that the use of knee braces prevents ACL injuries or reduces the risk of recurrent injury after surgery.
