    Hi bob and brad! I don’t know if you’ll see this but I wanted to give you my sincere thanks for making your content available. A few months ago my 90 year old grandma fell, and lost her ability to walk. Using your exercises she’s been able to greatly increase her strength and grow confident in standing on her own. Thanks to you, both she and the whole family has hope that she will walk again, as we go through the (long) process of finding her a physical therapist insurance will cover. You are truly doing God’s work. ❤❤

    Mike has improved so much.He has slowed his speech, is using punctuation so there is a pause between sentences, volumn has improved. It's much easier to listen to him. He is showing personality even when not talking, and is being nicer. Much more enjoyable to listen to and watch. I enjoyed this video. Miss Bob. Brad is fantastic as usual. So easy to learn from him and he is a joy to watch. Thanks guys for the good advice.

    I do all these exercises. My knees developed wrong (joint structure and muscle attachment) due to a hip birth defect. In addition to knee exercises I also engage in ankle mobility and hip rotation exercises. Keeping all three joints as fluidly mobile as possible is the key to decreased knee pain, where arthritis is substantial. I want my original joints for as long as possible!

    The saying for curbs and steps my phys therapist shared after my pilon 3 shattered ankle and rebuild to remember which foot steps first was "The 'good' foot goes to heaven, and the 'bad' foot goes to hell". Meaning the injured ankle steps down first, and the healthier ankle steps up first. That's helped me remember for 8 years now. 👍

    Canes really do help. I've had the need to use one - occasionally since I was in my 30's. After the first few times I realized that anyone can have need of a cane regardless of their age because of a variety of illness or injury. It has nothing to do with being old. They are simply a tool to use when you have need.

    I use to have bad knee pain until I found a park with an elevation gain of 300 feet and and set of stairs that goes to the top. Going up and down the stairs made my knee pain go away. Hiking up the trails to the top and avoiding the stairs caused the pain, taking the stairs relieved the pain, most likely because stair climbing builds the right set of muscles.

    • @williamwhiteley9359
      @williamwhiteley9359 6 місяців тому +1

      Wow! It is EXACTLY using stairs that aggravated my problem! Nothing else than that! What has helped is a pt that showed me to grasp my thigh a couple inches above the knee, while standing, and then grip around the thigh and push it down hard. That was the only thing he taught me but it has helped a lot! There is a version of it on this video, but they show massaging that area. It causes the quad muscle attached to the patella to loosen up, easing the ptessure on the patella. I am seeing more videos that mention strengthening the quad is not a good thing with knee problems and I can see why!

    I'm 49 years old and pulled my right hamstring 2X in 3 weeks playing baseball nearly 3 years ago. Because of the pain, tightness and lack of healing it caused me to walk striking the ball of my foot first instead of walking with my heel hitting first like you're supposed to. I used these "modified" walking mechanics for a very long time (two years) without realizing it due to not rehabing my hamstring properly. So walking with striking the ball of my right foot first over this time it actually caused knee pain due to incorrect walking mechanics and the weakening of leg muscles. Walking with striking the ball of my foot first caused me to have extremely weak quads (so bad the muscles atrophied a lot) extremely weak hamstring and my calf became very tight. All of this was on the right leg that had the pulled hamstring. Since being properly diagnosed and seeking professional physical therapy it has taken a LONG time to restrengthen the entire leg and hips thru a variety of exercises. So IMO I would NOT recommend walking on the ball of your foot for an extended period of time instead of a proper heel-toe strike when walking. Even though I have used a variety of exercises to strengthen the entire leg and hips again, if I had to choose one I'd choose vertical leg squat/press but with a pause. When the seat comes down and you're ready to push back up, stay in that position for a 3 to 5 count and then push yourself back up. Adding the pause to leg extensions, hamstring curls and the seated vertical/upward sloped leg press has helped a lot. I've worked my way up to doing single leg presses and I'm almost doing the same weight with each individual leg than I was doing with both legs only a few months ago. Of course I realize everyone has their own set of circumstances and it can vary from someone who is young and athletic to someone who has major damage in their knee to someone who has never worked out to someone who has severe physical limitations. I'm just giving my experience of what walking on the ball of my foot for a very long time did to me and how it has taken a long time to correct the damage done. It has taken dedication, hard work and consistency to build the strength back up so once you start your professional rehab, Don't Give Up!! :)

I'm afraid to go to another specialist, he may say it is my ankle joint! What next?😢

    Thank goodness for these guys. I started having arthritis in my knees this year and it is getting worse. My doctor suggested ibuprofen and arthritis creams. Didn't work for me. So I came to Bob and Brad. The things in this video make sense because it's taking my full weight off the arthritic leg. I tried some of the things in this video--the soft walking with a cane. Oh my gosh, what a relief and I found out I was using the cane incorrectly. Geez!! And I can't wait to try going up stairs. I'm sure I am doing it wrong too. I'm a walker so no problem there. I'm going to try the exercises they suggested too. I want to get rid of this stuff. Thanks guys. You rock!

    after watching Bob and Brad for a couple of years, I seem to have appropriated moat stuff - doing the knee extension every morning even before I get out of bed is one, what I have to try is the duck walk up stairs; I am disappointed at myself that I can no longer change feet going down, I have to do it the toddler way - had been hoping to improve but even Mike seems to suggest that may be a no? At the moment, I am experimenting with doing squats in between my long sessions at the desk/computer and it seems to reduce the pain on getting started walking. and I notice how much difference mood makes. - Hardly any pain on a good day! PS my condition is double meniscus tear left and now also right hip osteoarthritis (because of compensating for knee?), both I chose to treat conservatively yrs ago. Will look at your knee program. Thanks - and yes, Mike is not as shrill as he used to be. Thanks all around. 😊😊

    13:05 Rotating my foot outwards really helped me out. I'm able to do squats pain free now by rotating the foot outwards. I'm only 30 but both of my knees are popping and creaking like a rusty door hinge. And when I bend to about 30 degrees, I feel the strength just vanishing from my legs, and if I keep going it becomes painful. So doing squats was out of the question. Well until now. I just managed to do 4 sets of 20 squats pain free by rotating the foot outwards. Both knees were still popping and creaking, but at least there were no pain.
    Brad and Mike, do you guys have any ideas as to why they are creaking, and what I can do about it?
    And lastly, thanks for the video, that rotating of the foot really did the trick!

    you can rappel downstairs by using
    the rail as the "rope" and even take
    2-3 steps at a time descending
    in reverse like a cliff

    The odd thing with my knees is that I get random pains that are really just annoying. But, starting just about a year and a half ago (shortly before my Parkinson's diagnosis), my left knee started randomly buckling and causing me to nearly fall or sometimes to actually fall. So, I carry a cane a lot of the time but there are times that I can go months without it. It makes no sense to me. Right now, I am in a period of having to carry it whenever I'm out and about.

      My knee pain is totally random. It got really bad 3 days after a recent surgery ( not related to my knee). After taking Tylenol and Meloxicam and Voltaren cream, It seems better. x-ray showed no issues. I have an appointment with my PCP tomorrow.

    Thanks guys! at 68 I still like to do some running but have achey stiff knee's, and have to take care or I can get the odd pain spike,luckily I can just about manage it. I do some exercises in the morning , but can be a bit hit and miss on frequency. I suppose I should keep doing them more...

    My knee aches all the time, and i can not bend it without pain. I can't touch my heel to my butt without pain in my knee. I did the mobilization of the patella. It moves in all directions without pain, but when I move it front to back, I feel grinding. What cauees that?

    Would these exercises be good for recovering from a torn ACL? I plan to do the exercises from your video on how to walk better (strengthening the anterior tibialis - hope I spelled that right) as well.

    I’m currently wrapping up physical therapy for torn, meniscus, osteoarthritis and a burst Baker’s cyst in my left knee. It’s been six weeks and now my right knee is giving me pain. I have a 2 inch leg length difference of my left leg due to a motorcycle versus car accident at age 19. I am 67. I was active up until March when the baker cyst burst. I had a scary amount of fluid throughout my entire left leg. It also looked like someone took a bat to my leg. It was black and blue. I had MRI, sonogram and x-rays to confirm. Two things I did on my own to relieve swelling and buildup of the synovial fluid from the burst cyst. I wore compression socks and I did leg swinging. I sat on the edge of a bench with room to swing my leg as far as it would go. I did not force mobility, just got the lymph moving. Won’t walking with a “soft knee“ and “duck walk“ pattern create other issues with body mechanics?

    • @BobandBrad
      @BobandBrad  Рік тому

      Thanks for sharing. We do like the soft knee walking approach, as to other ailments that it would cause, we couldn't say by a case by case basis as we cannot answer individual medical questions.
