BUILD Knees That LAST a LIFETIME (only 10 minutes a day)
If you’ve ever struggled with fragile knees, you know how limiting it can be. But with just 10 minutes a day, you can go from knee pain to near-invincible knees! Here are some exercises that helped me strengthen my knees and keep them injury-free. Check out the video linked above for a full demonstration on the movements.
Start with heels elevated squats. By elevating your heels, you can squat deeper and put more load through the knee joint. This helps strengthen the tissues around your knee, improving both flexibility and strength.
Next up are ATG split squats. These target the front knee, providing great load in the bottom position, while also stretching the back hip flexor. This exercise helps address imbalances between your legs and strengthens each knee individually.
Don’t forget step-downs on a slant board. This movement mimics the motion of walking upstairs and is great for chronic knee pain. It allows you to work through different ranges of motion while strengthening the knee joint.
Adductor holds are a lifesaver for strengthening the inner thigh and knee, areas that are often weak. Start slow by bringing your knee halfway and gradually work your foot out over time.
Finally, reverse nordics and Nordic hamstring curls are excellent exercises for building knee flexor and knee extensor strength. Start with smaller movements and pulses, then work your way up to full-range exercises.
