What Is Patellar Tendonitis?
Your quadriceps (or “quads”) are actually a group of four powerful muscles that extend, or straighten out, your knee. These muscles originate up near your hip, come down your thigh, and cross your knee through the patella (or kneecap). The connective tissue between the bottom of your kneecap and the top of your shin bone it’s called the “patellar tendon“.
This is a common area for pain and inflammation to develop. This condition is known as patellar tendonitis.
Why Do You Get Patellar Tendonitis?
The three most common causes of patellar tendonitis are overuse, muscle weakness, and faulty joint biomechanics.
OVERUSE: patellar tendonitis is often referred to as “jumpers knee“. It is common in populations where jumping and high-intensity performance are required (basketball, volleyball, track and field, etc.).
MUSCLE WEAKNESS: oftentimes weakness in the quadriceps and hip extensors (glutes) are major contributing factors to the development of patellar tendonitis. Failure of these muscles to adequately handle loads and resistances places more stress on the tendon.
JOINT BIOMECHANICS: performing running, jumping, and resistance-training activities with inadequate strength often leads to higher loads being placed on tendons surrounding joints. These faulty joint mechanics can lead to increased stress in the tendon and eventual breakdown.

Luckily, patellar tendonitis is a very manageable condition with the right modalities, stretches, and exercises. In the video above you’ll learn 10 great tips and exercises that will help to eliminate your patellar tendon pain.

Hello, do you we need to warm up before this exercises?
Question: Does patellar tendinitis also cause pain at the upper (proximal) area of the knee as opposed to the lower area?
That’s where my pain is on both knees anytime I do any type of squat or squat-like movement. Even trying to hover over a public toilet for example. I’ve been working out regularly over the last year and started taking dancing classes and the problem has just gotten worse and worse. It feels like a pulling sensation and pain at the top part of the knees. Will these things help me?
Please say yes!!😂😂
This is super helpful and just what I needed – thanks!
Does anyone else get bruises on their knee after a workout? Do you know if this is a symptom of patellar tendonitis?
My knee pain come on when I cycle – usually about 45 min into a ride. Any suggestions?
I was following along with the knee massages and I was having trouble getting my leg to lay flat. Then I started pulling my knee cap up and it just went flat no problem.
That was really cool and super unexpected. Thank you
