Hoping these can finally help. Have had knee issues since I was 13, am 24 now, and it's impacted everything athletically I wanna do. Lift weights? Knee weakness causes imbalances. Cycling? Improper mechanics. Running? (which is the worst one) Knee weakness that has a knock on effect and causes shin splints
I pray for you, man. Have had terrible issues with constant/perpetual knee pain - cartilage related, which is worrying (did a LOT of cycling and running since 16; 27 now)
Broken Tibia Fibia and Tore My knee. I'm about 2 months past my accident. I'm realizing I've lost allot of movement and slowly getting it back. This is the best video I've seen so far. The more help I can get the better. I never thought I'd be in this situation.
Hi, thanks for the informative videos. It seams that your knee is popping at 1:43 . My knee does the same when I bend in the same position. It began to pop since last year without a trauma. I’ve no pain even if I cycle or hike for hours. Mobilization can help? Have I to be worried?
Knee popping or a crepitus like this is quite common and nothing to be worried about if you don’t experience pain, or haven’t suffered a recent trauma to your knee. More recent research actually suggests that this popping sound may be a sign that the joint is well lubricated.
I had ACL surgery 30 years ago. What do you suggest for me? I'm a woman, 63. I love to lift. I have limited mobility on my right knee. It snaps crackles and pops. sometimes there is pain.
Thank you for such an in-depth informative video -- I was in a car accident almost 15 years ago - I lost the bottom 1/4 of my right kneecap and was told I'd never have full range of motion ... I worked hard to get it all back - and I did ... I was also told I'd never run again ... well, NEVER say Never, right? I have since run 9 marathons, 24 halfs and countless other races - and am now training for the full ironman (again, dnf'd in 22) ... ANYWAY ... my knee has been feeling super stiff lately and clicking when I go down stairs ... it also has a lot of 'crunching sounds' when I bend it ... which I'm attributing to scar tissue build up - which is probably causing the stiffness ... anyway - long story, short ... I'm definitely going to start doing these exercises - I believe it will really help me. THANK YOU!!!✌
So amazing! I’m glad you didn’t listen to those statements and are back functioning at such a high level! Besides the exercises in this video, you might try the exercises in my knee clicking and popping video below. ua-cam.com/video/mI5NY3udo9k/v-deo.htmlsi=c093nArRjnkpgbTQ
Amazing video!!! Just recently had an injury and this has helped me sooo much. Thank you!!! I do have a question: my outside knee sac, bursa, has liquid in it. I noticed that I moved my leg internally possibly too quickly and that's when I had stiffness. Now, would that be my knee joints or was it my tband being too tight??
Thank you for the tips!! I had knee surgery because of a right knee cap fracture back in February. I've been in PT for a while now and my range of motion for bending my knee still needs work! My incision has completely healed! Any suggestions for getting better range of motion in my knee when sitting and standing??
I would recommend also trying the exercises in my hip stretches for pain video. These will help with hip flexibility, which will help with squatting. Here’s a link to the video. ua-cam.com/video/dkhUzZjC4KQ/v-deo.html
Awesome, thank you! Your channel seems to be a good source for overall flexibility, i'll dig into it. I'll probably add your ankles exercices to my legs routine.
I have pain in the back of my left knee. This pain comes and goes due to sitting for long periods of time when sewing. Are these exercises good for back of knee pain or do you have another video you recommend. I also stand for long periods of time with my job.
These exercises would be good to try, but I would also recommend trying the hamstring and calf exercises in the videos below. ua-cam.com/video/B5hDQhh0xOI/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/e547vdG9BFA/v-deo.html
If you have patellar tendon inflammation, you will want to strengthen the patellar tendon gradually once your pain has calmed down. Here is a link with a few example exercises. ua-cam.com/video/Ts_XTQamGEs/v-deo.htmlsi=UYi8uDOmBIFEvMgH If the pain is related to the joint behind your patella, which is called patellofemoral pain, then you would want to try the exercises in the following link. ua-cam.com/video/bjHD-sYTFp4/v-deo.htmlsi=Ec7gSSQfkaHUqDv0 Both of these videos only include a few example exercises. If you want more comprehensive programs, I would recommend getting my book as it has comprehensive programs for both patellar tendon pain and patellofemoral joint pain.

Hai hello...thank u for this class ,,,,i have a doubt....now iam in bed rest because of a tibial platue fracture...after removing cast now the dictor told me to do some mild exercises for bending my knee joint...can i do this ??still i hve fracture pain.....
I thought it was the upper calf that was tight the past year. but the 2nd one It is pulling that I can not even let my left leg go straight down without the stretching pain. last week my leg was so swollen the calf felt like the skin was too tight, slept 35 hours and late in the week was limping, I am better after having a biologic infusion on Thursday but I have very weak legs it seems, the calf wants to give out as does the upper leg. I am wondering because I have A.S. if its all the tendons. I was having problems walking with a straight leg. I also tried to dig up iris over a week ago and had pain in my hip. I will have to try that second one, maybe its the knee and not the tendon attaching the calf.
Hi I have knee locked after my surgery of knee since 2014 it can bend to 105degree it can't fully come to touch or bend fully till hips how to improve I am 45 and sports oriented person
I'am 62, male...I like walking in the mountains (I live in Corsica) . The path is bad with gliding stone and big height. I got a big pain on the left knee when I get down. I went to the doctors, did X-ray, nothing, and I take corticosteroid for few days. Its better but I feel a small pain when I go down stair...in the City where I'm living is full of stair.. Which exercises I can do? Thanks you, Have a good day..
Hello, thank you for your videos. I had a question hoping you could answer.. So I tore my ACL like 3 years ago, but as I was recovering from it.. I had heavy commitments at work and I couldn't completely work my way to full recovery. Although knee is relatively stable now, I play soccer occasionally and its holding up well.. but the only thing that has remained.. is that I wasn't able to recover full ROM, so I can only bend the knee around 95-100 degrees I believe.. I have no problem with straightening. Question is, do you think full knee bend can be achieved with exercises even after 3 years of initial injury? Because m afraid if I can damage it in a way if I try to bend it further? Thank you :)
Congrats on getting admitted to a great program! My biggest piece of advice is probably to really put yourself in the mindset of studying and going to classes with the intention of shaping yourself as a future clinician rather than just trying to memorize information for exams. Besides that, I would treat your DPT program like a full-time job and try to avoid taking on other major commitments. The program really takes up most of your time, and when you’re not at class, you’ll be studying. Having said this, definitely make sure to allocate time for fun on the weekends and exercise on the weekdays. It’s all about being disciplined with your schedule.
When I sit on the floor in a straddle position (one knee bent, foot touching inner thigh of my other leg), I feel a lot of tightness in my bent knee. Will the internal & external rotation exercises help with this, or can you recommend other moves that will help when I sit in this position?
The exercises in this video should help, but I would also recommend implementing the exercises in my hip mobility video below. When hip mobility is reduced, it will sometimes create discomfort in the knee when in a straddle position. ua-cam.com/video/qzwgYHJZBow/v-deo.htmlsi=HGzxQhPHCiDimfbg
Hi.. just wanna ask, if patient have limited knee range of motion d/t c/o feel like something "locking" inside their knee (area of supra-patella) during knee flexion, how we want to manage it beside we do patella mobilization and stretching?
If something is physically blocking the movement, you may need to have imaging done to make sure there isn’t a more significant meniscus tear. If it’s just a feeling of locking, then posterior tibial glide mobilizations can help.
I have a car accident 3 month ago. It didn't fracture or damage by ligament. But when I bend my keen I feel alot of pain. And sometime it becomes stiff from backside. Will you exercise helpful for me?
Hi i had meniscus tear surgery done on my right knee and even after one year now , i don’t feel confident bending my knee . It always feels like knee gonna lock again . Would mobility exercises work for me?
Mobility exercises could be helpful. However, you would also likely benefit from seeing a skilled orthopedic physical therapist who can mobilize your knee with their hands.
I had a full knee replacement on 8-15/24 I only bend my knees to 118 degrees angle I did all of these exercises nothing changed I'm disappointment . I'm doing independent pool therapy I still have scar tissue i was discharged Thursday from PT but I'm doing exercises from home and doing NIa arebics
Gaining knee mobility after a total knee replacement is often quite challenging and usually requires a physical therapist to apply external force with their hands to help the knee bend and straighten more. Was your physical therapist using their hands to help push your knee into more flexion/bend?
If your leg is out in front of you, the bend is probably due to tightness in your hamstring muscles. As your hip moves higher into flexion with your knee straight, the hamstrings are put on tension. When they hit their maximum flexibility point, it will cause your knee to bend.
The mobility exercises in this video could be helpful. Also, my knee cracking and popping video under my knee playlist has other exercises that often help with these knee joint sounds.

Trying this exercise as I had a sudden jerk in my leg and due to pain unable to fold it
I'm having pain running at times were the exercises any good
do i have to be on the floor for the first one or can does it have to just be a flat surface
You just need to be on a flat surface.
Should we do this before or after working out?
I’m going to assume after? They don’t seem like dynamic stretches?
I usually find that it is more helpful to do these after work out when you are warmed up.

The mobility exercises in this video could be helpful. Also, my knee cracking and popping video under my knee playlist has other exercises that often help with these knee joint sounds.
I do it but I don’t feel it stretching at all
If you have full knee range of motion, then these won’t feel like much of a stretch and probably aren’t necessary for you to do.
When i try and bend my knee, it feels like my hammy just gets tight and i can’t bend anymore.
