A quote for you: "Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.."

Your knees take a beating.

They’re involved in almost every movement, walking, squatting, climbing stairs. Over time, this can add up to pain and stiffness, especially if your knees aren’t prepared to handle the load.

The secret to bulletproof knees is to increase their capacity for load.
That means building strength and control, not just stretching or doing mobility work.

Here’s my protocol to make your knees stronger and more resilient:

1. Activate Your Glutes
If your knees hurt during squats, lunges, or stair climbing, your glutes might not be pulling their weight. Priming your glutes before a workout can reduce knee strain.
Try these:

• Fire Hydrants

• Glute Bridge

• Slow Step Downs

2. Strengthen Your Hamstrings
Weak hamstrings put extra stress on your knees. Most people neglect them in favor of quads, but balanced leg strength is key.
Try these:

• Swiss Ball Leg Curl

• Machine Leg Curl

3. Improve Hip Control
Tight, weak hips can cause your knees to collapse inward or outward, leading to pain. Better hip mobility and control will make your knees more stable.
Try these:

• Cossack Squat

• World’s Greatest Stretch

4. Build Knee Load Capacity
Your knees need to be challenged to get stronger. Start light and gradually increase resistance to avoid overloading them.
Try these:

• Wall Sits

• Bulgarian Split Squats

That’s All for Today!

Have a wonderful day,
