Building strength around your knee will help reduce forces going into the joint itself, disseminating them where they belong -> into your strong muscles💪

As the largest joint in the body they naturally handle a lot of load, making them more susceptible to pain and dysfunction.

⏰ Don’t wait until it’s too late to do something about it.

These 2 exercises can strengthen & protect your knees for the long term.

1️⃣ Seated Knee Extension - straighten your knee within a pain-free range to strengthen your quadricep under light resistance, effectively training your patella to glide in its groove.

2️⃣Bent Knee Taps - as the knee bends under body weight, the pressure under your kneecap increases. This exercise is designed to strengthen the quad in weight bearing while teaching you to trust taking your knees over your toes.

🚨 It goes without saying that assessment and diagnosis from a trained physical therapist is the best option.
