Thank you so much Aaron for sharing your knowledge. I've learned so much watching your videos (and those of other coaches/PTs) the last two years. It changed the way I train and coach (I work in a gym in France) and think about the body, to the point that I'm thinking about going back to school and become a PT my self. UA-cam truly is an amazing place, and I'm gratefull to be able to learn more everyday. Thanks again !
Been doing touchdowns and hip airplanes from a previous video since getting a hip impingement on my right side last year. Can finally squat and dl with no hip nor knee pain. Thanks so much, never been able to do a pistol squat and did one this week!!
I just found this channel today, the first video I watched about squat stance has changed my depth forever. And now my bad knee is gonna be all the smarter for going over 300
Massive thank you Aaron. From your video I have been able to identify where my imbalances are...this is not something that is covered in other channels.. information is very generic. I'm definitely going to explore the exercises you are suggesting. Please can you move to the UK !!!
I have this exact problem! Down to the T and have tried so many things and nothing worked. This might actually work and I can’t wait to test this out!!
from me, this is a million dollars content, for us, to live our life with better knee . it's been years i subs to this channel dr. Aaron thank you so much :-)
Really appreciate the detailed content you put out for free on this channel. Have had the touch down drill prescribed by PTs but it’s a challenge during a flare up of pain. Going to add more hip flexion and add the airplane as well. Didn’t know until I saw your videos that I have quite asymmetrical external rotation
Aaron, I’m having an issue with my knee pain I feel like my ankle mobilities aren’t symmetric but when I do ankle mobility exercises I feel like it is making my achilles tendon pain worse. What can I do to make my ankle more mobile without making my achilles tendon worse?
great Video! You named at 1:58 .. the asymmetry in Baseball Player. I'm actually playing Baseball and noticed them .. do you plan on doing a Video about this Problem ?
Wow. For years if not a decade (or more, I didn't even pay attention back in the day) I've had uneven hip mobility and it's annoyed me (I think it also caused groin pain when slapshotting in ice hockey or just sneezing real hard), it has felt like a bone block on one side and like my whole hip was twisted. Furthermore I couldn't feel comfortable when sitting on the floor in partial lotus. I believe it caused or was caused by weak core on that side, both abs and back. I've strengthened those drastically, and grown them (they were clearly visibly smaller than the other side) but the blocking or twisted sensation hasn't gone away. The hip stabilizers are also uneven. However, doing the first one, extending the problem side hip and stretching into it with weight keeping torso upright, I felt intense contracting sensation in all the problematic hip muscles, and after just five reps I felt like giving up. I had equal starting results in the faber test than her, and equal end results after the kneeling stretch. It felt so amazing. So good. With some good luck fixing that will also ease up digestive track issues, I have a feeling part of it just comes from odd positions of structures and excessive uneven tensions. I don't need that band to pull me to cause me falling down. My whole hip feels like having been hit by a grenade after trying the hip aeroplane in both rotations.
What if I fail faber test but techniques which you showed doesn't work? For example if I'll try to push knee downward (during faber test) I feel sensation in the outer thigh (right below glute). It feels like some kind of blockade. Is there any other technique that I can check? Thanks in advance.
What would you recommend for platforms in leiu of those weights? I have a bunch of iron weights, but its tedious to take them on and off my bar the way my home gym is, and they do slip a lot. Great videos would love to know
@Squat University thank you so much for your amazing content. Could you please make a video on flat foot and shoe options for people with flatfoot. Can I still try powerlifting though I have flat foot??? Please answer this. Thanks a ton!
Sir nice video . Love from India 🇮🇳 Sir can you please make video for increasing strength for snatch ani how to improve snatch please sir it's my hardly request to you 🙏
What if our left hip shows issues in the Fabre test, and external rotation, but we constantly have right knee pain? My left him is immobile and locked by it’s by far my stronger side what’s a logical reason?
I have before but rarely use it anymore. If i want to challenge someones balance I'll have them close their eyes or do more one leg work but rarely put someone on a BOSU anymore.
She seemed like at the bottom of her squats her back was flexing a bit. Should she be stopping before she does that. I feel like I do that also and I'm under the impression that it can be a cause of back pain.
Every other day is what most PT exercise frequency is at, so I would say the same here. If you do it more, you might not be doing it well enough, cos the muscles get tired and cant recover, and if you do it less, you wont progress as fast as you could. (I know you asked months ago. Just answering for anyone else wondering the same thing, and ofc, if youre still curious about it)
I have osteoarthritis, squatting hurts now even with no weight. Sometimes it's better... Am I supposed to do the touchdowns when it hurts ? Saw them on your website a few months ago, they do help for tendonitis but when the knees are swollen I often quit...
Do them over a VERY small height (maybe 2 inches to start) and use a very hip dominant start by pushing your butt back and putting more torque on the hips. You can even use your hands for balance holding onto something if you need to at first.
@@SquatUniversity Thank you, yes, I learned the movement on your website. It is hard to keep progressing though with osteoarthritis flare ups ... 55 years old, 16 years bodybuilding...
So I wonder is there different diagnosis between knee pain while working out and knee pain after working out. For me I don't have any to significant pain during workout. But as soon as I finish and my body gets colder it's starts hurting while sitting down or standing up from chair. Also it hurts when I try to squat or bend it. Only time my knee hurts during workout is when I warm up for snatches. I sit in deep squat for minutes and when I am standing up it feels like something is pulling me down and my knee goes wild
@@SquatUniversity i have no mobility issues. i can touch my knee on wall test. and also everything is balanced. i have a quad tendon calcification. now i know why stretches and knee work doesn't help. i have to remove that little bastard. its only 3.5mm and f me up
Great video! Don't want to stir a hornet's nest here but what are your thoughts on her butt wink near the end there. I'm still trying to get rid of mine 😅
Iam pretty strong, but 1 set of each exercise, glutes are dead 🤣. Havin knee pain on both sides currently due to knee cave on high loads. I guess a few rounds of these over the next week will do the job, can already feel the difference.

I'm truly honored to hear!
Dude I straight up love you. The amount of stuff you've done for my physical pain through these videos is nuts. Thank you!

Thanks so much, never been able to do a pistol squat and did one this week!!
That's so awesome to hear! I'm glad you're doing so well!
@@SquatUniversity thank you for all the amazing advice you have been giving, truly lifesaver.
You are actually my hero Dr. Aaron
I always use knee touchdowns in my warm up - they're just so absolutely great!
Thats great to hear!
I just found this channel today, the first video I watched about squat stance has changed my depth forever. And now my bad knee is gonna be all the smarter for going over 300
The fact this video has sooooo many views and not a comparable amount of likes is WACK. This was SOOO helpful.
Thank you for all of your videos!

Did it work?
Great video, great explanation. Thank you!!!
Hey man, please do a video on how to WORKOUT with a herniated disc and how to heal it. Would really appreciate it ...
I'll see what I can do!~
from me, this is a million dollars content, for us, to live our life with better knee . it's been years i subs to this channel dr. Aaron thank you so much :-)
As a physiotherapist in india they dont teach us about the mechanism of pain in this manner thank u sor for helping us ❤❤❤
This is a helpful video to manage the pain. Thank you for sharing.
You're welcome!

When you’re doing the 5” ankle mobility test, wouldn’t you adjust to, say, 3” to compensate for shorter morphologies?
I will say thanks till get tired. So many thanks for sharing this videos man
I will be happy if this fixes my knee pain. My hip did not pass the faber test but my ankles are very mobile
Dr Aaron -- The GODSEND👏🏻
Thank you for this. Bless you for sharing your knowledge and expertise
You are too good doc ! Your videos are way too good ! Please continue with such beautiful informative videos. Thank you so very much 💓💓💓💓
Thank you so much for the support!
So much valuable information! Thank you!!
I love your videos! I learn a lot with you!
You help me recover some injurys too!!
Thanks man! 😉💪 Congrats from Portugal 🇵🇹
I"m so glad to help!
Amazing video. Same exact results on my hip test thing, and I coulda predicted it based on knee pain from squat day :p
This was so helpful! Thank you!
Amazing content as usual 😍
Thank you!

Amazing channel, thank you guys 👍
IR test used to be performed at 90 degree of flexion, what changed? Tanks.
Thanks for the video! Would you use knee touchdowns to treat Chondromalacia Patellae as well?

I wish you had videos about foot pain
Brilliant
Thank you
In RNT Hip airplane, why you use band to keep the knee out.🤔Usually RNT exercises (the band) keep the knee in.
It depends on what the goal of the RNT is. This is specifically to make it more difficult to keep the foot stable and keep the big toe engaged down.
Cool sir👍
thank you for clearing my doubt 😊
Eccellente. Grazie coach!
Sir nice video .
Love from India 🇮🇳
Sir can you please make video for increasing strength for snatch ani how to improve snatch please sir it's my hardly request to you 🙏
You bet!
Waiting for your video 🙏

My left him is immobile and locked by it’s by far my stronger side what’s a logical reason?
Aaron I love your tips and techniques. Are you using the Bosu ball, and have you been considering doing a video on knee strengthening with it ?
I have before but rarely use it anymore. If i want to challenge someones balance I'll have them close their eyes or do more one leg work but rarely put someone on a BOSU anymore.
@@SquatUniversity Thank you 👍
Should one lift with herniated disc which is very painful?
go Mattie
Will this also help me when i start running?
She seemed like at the bottom of her squats her back was flexing a bit. Should she be stopping before she does that. I feel like I do that also and I'm under the impression that it can be a cause of back pain.
How frequently would you do these exercises?
Every other day is what most PT exercise frequency is at, so I would say the same here. If you do it more, you might not be doing it well enough, cos the muscles get tired and cant recover, and if you do it less, you wont progress as fast as you could.

What do the tests in this video show?
@@SquatUniversity i have no mobility issues. i can touch my knee on wall test. and also everything is balanced. i have a quad tendon calcification. now i know why stretches and knee work doesn't help. i have to remove that little bastard. its only 3.5mm and f me up
Im scared for me knee to detaches..it has happened. I stop working out.
Posterior pelvic tilt? Is okay?
My inner thigh cramps only on the left leg when doing touch down, what could be the problem?
I would check your hip mobility first and then make sure youre balance across your full foot.
Are pistol squats as useful as single leg touchdowns in this context?
You'll see that on his website, pistol squats is what you so when you really master the highest touchdowns
Very useful knowledge, thanks for that! By the way, did you guys notice, how cute she is)
Great video!

Why my calf is burning when I do this? Am I doing it wrong?
Make sure to lean forward more with your chest and feel more balanced across your entire foot. Don't be too much into the heel.
@@SquatUniversity thank you so much I'll try it now again ☺️☺️
@@SquatUniversity it worked it worked thank you ☺️
