Top 10 Strengthening Exercises for Painful Knees

[@pamelaspooner8335]

You guys are so ethical in that you show alternatives to buying equipment. Shows your hearts are in the right place! We appreciate you both so much!

[@catherinegray1367]

Do you say that to Amazon when they offer you cheaper alternatives? These guys need to eat. If they have shown you something that helps and it costs you nothing, how would you like them to feed their families. I'm always stunned at the people that have no problem paying Target, Walmart or Amazon $$ yet 2 guys trying to make it in business for their families would be "unethical" if they only showed you how they could help you. It's time to understand just what a small business is before they're all gone, but those looking for "free" will never understand paying

[@Julie-kb3mo]

@@catherinegray1367 For real ?! 🙄 I'm just coming across this video now~ (ergo, your comment ...) following their latest I had viewed (with Mike) that just came out on knees... While I understand what you're saying from a business stance, it reveals some cluelessness on the point the other commenter was relaying. I don't believe Bob & Brad are relying on feeding their families with the profits of their KZbin videos. Certainly there will be income from their products sold this way, yet it seems from the start of their KZbin channel, they've been all about sharing their knowledge and information with others WITHOUT the expectation of monetary gain. Please keep this in mind when viewers express their appreciation for Bob & Brad and others with hearts for helping people. 🙂

awwww...watching this again for some knee pain and I miss Bob so much!! Hope he is doing well...thank you Bob and Brad for being my go to online therapists!

[@rolandbagoly8620]

Thank You Bob and Brad! These excersises are game changers for me! 😊

[@samb2945]

I've been following your advice and my knee is heaps better already. I didn't go to the doctor basically because he's not doing face to face consultations because of covid. I am glad that I didn't go down the surgical route. Your way is the best! Thanks guys, you have a life long fan. Sam Newmarket UK 🇬🇧

Thank God u didn't undergo surgery , I have a suggestion if you r interested,regarding knee.

[@wendykeller3176]

You guys are the best! My knee pain has had me limping and in excruitating pain. After doing your knee extention exercises my pain is so much less. Thank you,thank you,thank you. Ill be doing your exercises regularly.

[@LeslieRamsay-g2u]

I love you guys!!! Today I searched your site for knees and found excellent demo. Thank you so much. I’m grateful to be able to find you two whenever I search.

[@artsyladie7]

I like the exercises on this video a lot! Many are close to the exercises my PTs are having me do at therapy! They are working on muscles I was not using correctly. I am making amazing progress in strength and becoming more pain free. I am moving and using my body more correctly during my day. Wonderful, and thanks, guys!!

[@liskl5982]

I had three plus months of immobile knee due to a broken leg and surgery. Needed this.

[@sachikuwahara5460]

Found your video at a great time! I started attending Zoom workout classes a few months ago, and I have been having a lot lot of knee pain every time I do squats and lunges and it has been getting worse. I was just thinking about just quitting altogether, but after watching this, I can modify my exercises and continue to work out. Thanks!

[@michellemacioszek6062]

Your information is outstanding! Thanks for passing it on!

You guys are great you know how hurt people feel. We dont have the range of motion we should have nor the strength and its ok......start slow and just go!

[@donwojcik2935]

You guys are great. helped me alot with my dirtbike accident injury to my knee .thanks

[@kathypetrelli3361]

Hi Fellas, This morning I was watching in bed while icing my knee. After I had taken Tramadol and 500 mg if Tylenol. I haven’t found relief in days. You demonstrated a quick simple exercise, foot up on chair holding and supporting both sides of the knee, gently twisting inward. I would have NEVER twisted my painful knee. First, it didn’t hurt secondly it was better and pain free in seconds, I didn’t even do reps! You are the absolute BEST! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart 💜

[@sofiaescobar4455]

Thanks for sharing :), hope you're doing much better

[@dianaolivarez7020]

I will definitely do this exercise, my knee hurts more but also, a few months I sprained my ankle ; and so now my ankle hurts and my knee hurts worst. I think it’s cause of my ankle. Thank you so much Bob and brad. ❤️👍🏼

[@豆男枝]

Very sensible exercises. Thanks a million!

[@klellis4147]

Love your exercises! They help!

[@garyfarm]

This is an EXCELLENT video !

[@wsearp]

The best exercise for the knees in my opinion is as follows..... Sit on a high bench that prevents your feet from touching the floor..... Sit on the edge like Bob is doing on the table at the beginning of this video.... Before you sit up there strap on a pair for five to seven pound ankle weights and just let your lower legs hang down off the bench..... No need to engage the quads by lifting the feet at all.... Just rock your feet back and forth about six to eight inches like a child would do..... This will allow the synovial fluid to move in and out of the joint because the weight will allow the joint to open ever so slightly..... There is hardly any effort to this at all.... It's all about the motion and allowing the synovial fluid to go in and pout of the joint.... I started doing this for 10 to 15 minutes a day and not only did it stop my knee pain but also realigned my lower leg to where it should be.... You only need to so this a few times a week at first and then, only as you feel the need from time to time after that.....

[@suhajassem123]

If you can upload short video!!

[@Rutyos]

How about sitting on a barstool?

[@andrewgabriel959]

....thanks, that makes sense, explained well. No video needed. I will give it a try.

[@dolphingirl3698]

Along with generally bad knees, I'm trying to heal from a torn meniscus. Meniscus tears take forever to heal due to circulation issues. This might save my knees! So thank you so much for it!

[@davidstrong8524]

I agree with Pamela. Love you guys. I recommend you all the time

[@sugamomma8795]

Thank you gentlemen!!!! Is it a good idea to do these daily? I’m motivated and determined to get strong again.

[@tet61484]

Subscribed! Did this today, so helpful. Thanks!

[@DianaGarcia-hc2sf]

I have just recently found your website. My doctor recommended you! Love your help and I can’t stop lookin your many PT sessions. Found so many sessions to help besides the original reason I looked you up. Thank you so much for all your help and concerns for us!

[@BobandBrad]

Thanks for watching. Take care!

[@Nate_is_Great]

5:21 I am surprised they did not suggest doing this...(I give props to Margaret Richard, the host of "Body Electric," the queen of proper form for this most helpful tip). On those inner thigh leg raises, to make this exercise a ton more comfortable: place a small plastic but somewhat squishy ball (you can get them at dollar stores), a pillow, a foam roller, or a hand weight underneath the knee you are not working.You will be able to lift the working inner thigh higher, and it will help your body stay in better alignment. It's waayyy more comfortable than the demo B & B gave on this! Hope they give it a try too they might hate it less, lol!

[@cjay2658]

Thank you soo much! I'm on Disability and can't afford physical therapy. These knee exercises have been a life saver!

[@paulamartin7348]

I love you guys, now I have had both of my knees replaced, I do all your exercises and yes, they really work, wish you guys were in Australia, but thank God I can watch you on KZbin, thanks for all your help, keep the knee exercises coming, cheers from Sth Australia.

[@teniechac9556]

This was right on time. Glad I subscribed before. I recently hurt my knee and realized it was tendinitis 🤦🏾‍♀️ So it's taking longer to heal and it's harder to strengthen those muscles without taxing it too hard. The leg raises are gold and I'll be repping out on those to get my quads stronger.

[@chroniclesofangie2762]

Has your tendinitis improved? If yes, do you mind sharing tips please?🥺

[@sharonrinkiewicz3940]

thank you. My left knee started hurting months ago when I had a bad fall. Past couple days my right knee went out on me. It hurts so bad when I get up I actually scream. I will try these exercises.

[@AyeshaKhan-nt6hh]

You guys are amazing

[@sylviawallace5292]

You mention that a weak joint often depends upon the joints either side of the weak spot. Do you have a video that addresses a set of exercises that would target the hip joint, the knee joint and the ankles? I see some hip work here, but are any of these moves also sufficient to address ankle weakness? Is there an ankle exercise that I could add? Thanks! You guys are awesome. I became a fan 7 years ago when I found your video on hanging like a monkey to relieve shoulder pain.

Can we do all this with injuries to the knees and lower back pain??

Ive done some of the exercises for a few days but i dont think its helping injuries. Lifting my legs up and down causes clicking noises in groin and pain. And in knees. I really need physio but im too anxious to go. Walking results in more pain. So depressed, feeling like im 95 and resdy for the grave 😩

Hey you two! Can you talk to me about my knees and elbows locking and then making a sharp “click” sound? I constantly feel both locking up and then a LOUD crack sound happens. What is happening? It is very painful at times and at other times it is mild. It happens daily. I was hoping for some insight into this issue and will it grow worse as I grow older? I am 50 years old now. I was extremely athletic growing up. Also, have you addressed Bursitis in hips in any videos? I have both hips with that condition. I watch your videos often because I have 8 fused vertebrae in my spine. I thoroughly enjoy your simple techniques for my beat up joints. No one will touch me after all the surgeries I have had...oh and including my right rotator cuff! 30 years of sports really did a number on me! Hugs and love from NY!❤️🙏🏻 PS....I have to wake up in the middle of the night to crack my right knee the most. THANK YOU!
