5 Rehab Movements That Your Creaky Knees Will Love
A kinesiologist’s guide to stopping pain in its tracks fast.
Whether you’re experiencing knee pain due to overtraining, weakness, or immobility, movement has a key role in your recovery. One of the biggest mistakes we make when training the knees is having fear of going into vulnerable positions. We’re so focused on ‘protecting’ the knees during squats and lunges by perfecting form that we leave strength and mobility gains on the table. Bringing your knees over the toes or going to your end ranges of motion may seem intimidating, but it’s necessary to ensure you’re bulletproofing this joint.
Today I want to introduce 5 trusty exercises you should have in your back pocket to prevent knee injuries and stiffness. Regardless of the activities or occupations you choose to do, I recommend throwing these into your routine at least once a week to keep this joint in check and ensure you’re maintaining healthy function. Not only will this help with pain management, but it can directly improve your sports performance. Without further ado, let’s dive in and make those creaky joints feel 10 years younger!
