assessment: * Assessment of force-velocity and power-velocity relationships in each leg during a cycling task
* Assessment of unilateral force-velocity and power-velocity relationships during a knee extension task
* Assessment of maximum force and explosive force in isometric (static) conditions of the knee extensors.
* Measurement of scores using questionnaires (IKDC-SKF).
Study summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to to determine the extent of the association between objective changes in the muscle function of the knee extensors (strength and power) and the function reported by the patient following ACL reconstruction surgery. The main questions it aims to answer is:
\- Pre- and post-operative (6 months) changes in maximum knee extensor strength following ACL reconstruction, correlated with the IKDC-SKF score.
