1 vote for reversibility...

Answer 23

why reversibility?

Answer 24

reversibility is a problem of "if you don't use it, you lose it". However, it applies primarily to strength and fitness, not skills.. You don't forget how to throw and catch or ride a bike through lack of practice.

So, ankle recovery by couch-sitting would cause loss of fitness.

Ankle recovery by swimming would maintain fitness (and minimize the problem of reversibility) while not creating a loss of soccer skills.
