Athlete Transition Lab – Main Content

What this support is – and what it is not

Athlete Transition Lab (ATL) offers specialised online support for people with proximal hamstring ruptures/avulsions. It is designed to sit around your existing care, not to replace your surgeon or physiotherapist.

What this IS

  • Educational and coaching support focused on proximal hamstring injuries
  • Structured rehab navigation in clear stages, based on current evidence and clinical experience
  • Specialised in proximal hamstring ruptures/avulsions in active people and athletes
  • Designed to work with your surgeon's protocol and your local physio, not against it

What this is NOT

  • Not a replacement for your local surgeon, sports doctor, or physiotherapist
  • Not a source of individual medical diagnosis, prescriptions, or emergency care
  • Not a reason to ignore or override the medical advice you receive locally

If you are treated conservatively (without surgery)

If you and your surgeon have decided on a conservative (non‑surgical) path, you still need a serious, structured rehab plan. ATL can help you and your local team make that trial as clear and effective as possible.

  • Help you understand your MRI and diagnosis in plain language, so you know what is actually injured
  • Structure the first 12 weeks of a serious conservative trial: load, stages, and common traps to avoid
  • Clarify what "conservative is working" looks like, and when it may be time to re‑discuss surgery with your team
  • Give you questions and checklists you can bring into your local physio and follow‑up visits
  • Reduce unnecessary guessing, so you do not drift for months without clear progress

If you have had surgery for a proximal hamstring avulsion

After a proximal hamstring refixation, many patients feel "medically cleared but not strategically guided." ATL can help you structure your comeback over months, not just the first few weeks.

  • Guide your return to sport with a phase‑based, hamstring‑specific framework
  • Align your home and gym work with your surgeon's instructions and your physio's plan
  • Integrate your individual goals such as cycling, running, tennis, dance, or strength training
  • Offer options from a one‑off 12‑week roadmap call to a full 6‑month comeback programme
  • For complex or high‑stakes cases, 1:1 work with Dr. Luise "Loopi" Weinrich can help you make weekly "push / hold / adjust" decisions

How it works – simple steps

You have been seen by your surgeon and have a diagnosis.

You are a patient of a collaborating surgical centre (Chirurgie du Sport, Paris) or another specialist centre for proximal hamstring injuries.

You fill out the short form below.

You tell ATL whether you are on a conservative or surgical path, and what your main goals and worries are.

You receive an email from ATL with options, availability, and pricing.

Together, you decide whether a one‑off online consult, a structured 12‑week roadmap, or a more continuous support option makes most sense for your situation.

You continue your treatment locally, with an extra layer of hamstring‑specific navigation.

All sessions and plans from ATL are designed to fit around your surgeon's and physio's work, not to replace them.

Safety, legal notes and important limitations

Online support from Athlete Transition Lab is either educational and coaching‑based or teleconsultation/telemedical work, depending on the chosen service. It does not create a doctor–patient relationship outside of Dr. Luise Weinrich's licensing jurisdiction, and it does not replace in‑person medical care.

ATL does not:

  • Perform physical examinations
  • Issue medical certificates, prescriptions, or sick notes
  • Provide emergency care or urgent crisis management

All medical decisions are made by:

  • Your local surgeons
  • Your doctors
  • Your physiotherapists

Seek in‑person care immediately if you experience:

  • New severe pain with a sudden "pop"
  • Marked loss of strength or function
  • Progressive numbness, tingling, or weakness
  • Fever, night pain, or feeling acutely unwell

Do not rely on online sessions in these situations. Contact local emergency services or your medical team immediately.
