These knee pain exercises should help strengthen your knees and decrease knee pain. If these moderate knee exercises are too difficult, check out Dr. Jo’s beginner knee pain video first: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHgIV32iwMo&list=PLPS8D21t0eO8bRyNBvm5NULZeCKPsnP3Q&index=62&t=0s

The first knee pain exercises are bridges, clamshells, and a four way hip lying down. These not only work your knees, but your hips as well.

Bridges with a band make your muscles work together to help them stay balanced. Sometimes when you have an injury, the muscles become imbalanced, and don’t work together.

Sit to stand, heel/toe raises, and single leg balance exercises work your hips, knees, and ankles. All these areas need to be strong to help your knees stay strong and decrease the knee pain.

Squats and Lunges have always been painful for my knees. Could be years of doing them incorrectly BDJ (Before Doctor Jo 🙂). I use a leg press type exercise using a therand while lying on my back. No pain with this one. Is this a good substitute?

Dr. Jo, I appreciate your YT videos regarding the knee. My knees issue have improved significantly by carefully and diligently working out through your instruction and for this, I am grateful. Thank you. I do have a question regarding the Tensor Fasciae Latae (aka hip flexor), The right side started hurting today and it may be because i was on vacation for 9 days and not exercising at all… Upon returning back to the gym, after vacay, while on the treadmill for a walk (gradually working my way up again…) and during the walk, i started getting the pain… so i cut the walk short so as not aggravate the TFL any further… Any advice on what i can do to? please help ☺️ me.

Hi @askDoctorjo I like a few of your videos and have to put them into practice as I've started running again (³rd time lucky) and I need good exercises for lower back, thighs and Achilles as that seams to be the most I'm working, can you point me into any tips or videos you have to stretch and strengthen if you don't mind.

Thanks and keep up the good work
