Why Common Patellar Tendonitis Rehab FAILS and 5 exercises that WORK!

[@johnlee9791]

I’ve been to PT, chiropractor and have done stretches and exercises for my knee pain and this video, for whatever reason, has made more improvement for my knee pain than anything else! Thank you SO much!!!

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Nice job! Thanks for trying it out :)

[@gogogo96]

Im on my day 8 doing this everyday. I pretty sure my knee pain will be gone before my sports doctor appointment. I play tennis 3 times a week just turn fifty. never in my life felt this knee pain before, with this exercise I found out how weak my hip flexor psoas muscle. Thank u very much coach

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Keep up the good work!

[@ItsMitoco]

Did it work?

[@gogogo96]

definitely, playing Tennis again 3 times a week for atleast 2hrs every visit to the court. after 2 weeks of therapeutic exercise

[@Waingro808]

Similar situation for me, except I play table tennis. Found out my hip psoas are pathetically weak. I guess that's what happens when you sit 15 hours a day!

[@SE154eva]

I’m 17 lol I’m scared for my career

[@sappybb]

The first exercise is very effective removing my tendon pain. I started for day one and the pain was much better the next day! Thank you so much! I tried a lot others until this one saved my knee pain! So happy. I can run again.

Nice work!

[@harvey2733]

No one has explained this as clear as you have. I definitely understood why I got recurrent irritation on my knees, it’s because of tightness of quads especially hip flexors and psoas. Thanks a lot. I never thought how tightness can cause tendonitis. I will incorporate these exercises in my routine. Thank u once again

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

This channel is unique, I must say. Many people don't realise how important mobility & rest is. I know I didn't before I got injured. I've had patellar tendonitis in both knees for a while now due to overtraining/too much jumping. I found many useful tips here. Keep up the great work!

I have had that minor twinge pain in one of my knees when going up and down stairs that isn't due to being overweight. I'm 115 lbs and female. I started doing that one where you straighten your knees out while seated and slowly point and flex your ankle.....dude.....WTF! It doesn't hurt any more!! So amazed! My knees feel so much stronger when I squat just from doing that simple move. I have that whole packet printed out to progress further from your site. Thank you so much!!

This explains why I have this pain after breaking my ankle. I didn't walk on my leg for 6 weeks then when I get the boot off and started physical therapy my knee started hurting worse than the ankle. My physical therapist didn't talk to me about any of this. I have struggled so badly to learn to walk again and its all due to the knee pain. I was starting to give up. Thanks for this info.

[@247_E]

About a year and a half ago. I slammed my 4th toe on my left foot into a heavy chair. Breaking it or causing a fracture. I’m not entirely sure because, I never got it checked out. Due to health ins. I never got a boot, or got it treated. Due to depression, finances etc. The first thing I noticed was my knee changing. Constantly having to pop it or “reset it” upon being on my feet for a couple hours. Mind you, I was working full 8 - 10 hour shifts, limping around. For about that long. Recently, I’ve started a fitness / health journey which has lead me to PT, lots of podiatrist/orthos and as off the 18th neurologist. After seeing plenty podiatrist I finally found one that said my 4th toe healed with a malunion at the furthest joint. Let me explain some of the symptoms now. Knee pain, cold toes/walking impairment I almost in a sense forgot how to walk? I feel wonky standing/walking and it causes pain after say, 30 minutes. Ankle pain, a VERY tight ankle feeling which almost always feels like it needs release. A very tight hip, no matter the amount of stretching etc. seems to always be tight. Can anyone and I mean anyone please provide me resources/help? My right big toe now has early bunion, and all my toes have gone hammer post injury. My knee, sticks out and shifts inward more than the other. I’m only 26, is there anyway I can reverse this? I would LOVE to be able to walk and stand without pain!!

[@247_E]

My left side chain has been severely affected, with my knee / ankle giving me the most problems as of lately!

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Hi, and thanks for the comment. We are here to help. These exercises are a good start; you will notice changes after 4 - 6 weeks of regular practice (2 - 3 times weekly). However, the Foot and Ankle Pain Solution program is even better. It's comprehensive and progressive and will help you assess and address your issue's root cause once and for all. I can't tell you how much progress you'll make related to your specific issue, but that's just a segment of the overall program which will address the full range of motion of the feet and ankles and integrate this into fundamental movement patterns. I can guarantee that you will notice many benefits if you follow through with the program. You can learn more about it here: www.precisionmovement.coach/foot-ankle-pain-solution/ Check it out and let us know what you think :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

Excellent video. I contracted my patella inflammation by biking too much. At the time of contraction, I knew there was strain on my knee, but did not slow the frequency of exercise or stretch afterwards to mitigate strain. I also remember thinking, I need to go to the gym to strengthen my knee. Three weeks later I had inflammation and noticed it when I bent down and sensed discomfort due to fluid build up at my knee cap.

@@PrecisionMovementCoach Coach Joshua, I am better. It took a lot of effort to make the transition to wellness. I momentarily tried to implement your exercises, but rather than following thru I kept searching for information on patella bursitis. I ended up coming across a Pateller Bursitis video of DoctorJo. I watched it and started implementing the exercses after a routine of push-ups and sit-ups. I then saw a gradual improvement that continued until I finally started using the affected knee as a support when kneeling on the floor.

[@willemdebevere2069]

Hi, currently I'm full on in revalidation modus to tackle my jumpersknee, already 1,5year ago! I focus on strengthening the patellatendon gradually + fix muscle imbalances + try stretching and dry needling and fascia treatment for my (chronic) muscle tension in quads, hamstrings, anterior tibialis,...). I also had a prp and hyaluronic acid injection for a minor cartilage injury in the tibia plateau. Sometimes I do some taping. Although I see some modest progress in the excersises (squats, lunges, single leg squats,...) and have little to none discomfort doing them and 24 hours after the exercises. But! the moments I need to sit, even after 5 minutes, cause flaring up my anterior knee pain. Besides the nagging pain in the patella area, this provokes or happens almost simultaneously with the fééling of a stuck foot, tight hips, compressed spine and tightning calves. I'm a psychologist, so I can not totally eliminate sitting in my life, even with a standup desk :). Do I have to be patient and only thrust the process? Will the strengthening of the patella tendon eventually eliminate my pain during sitting? (I have the intention to do more core exercises.) Do I need to do extra things in treatment and /or in examination to break my plateau? Thanks already for your ideas! Willem

Had many clients step on an anatometer in a NUCCA practitioners office and show that the client is several pounds heavier on one side (mostly 7-15lbs).

[@bobmiller5077]

Hi Coach E, Appreciate you sharing your knowledge. This video seems quite promising theoretically as before my knee pain I had pain in the area you refer to as the metatarsals. I thought my metatarsal bones were going to break while I was playing tennis. Following the metatarsal pain the back of my knee became very sore and following back of the knee pain then front of the knee pain occurred. So I will re-watch your video. I also have always had weak calves and weak hamstrings usually getting excruciating cramps in my hamstrings if I play too much tennis. If I can make a suggestion without offending you, each time you use a medical term instead of a layman’s term is like someone suddenly speaking in a foreign language and who likes looking up the meaning of medical words as it interrupts me watching your video. It would really make it easier to understand if you would avoid medical words or when you use them also immediately define them for us. Thank you E

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Hi and thanks for following along. Glad to hear this exercise is helping you. However, while it's great (and free!), it's still just a band-aid. If you want to get to the root causes of the pain so it stops coming back - and doesn't get or turn into something worse - check out our Knee Pain Solution program at www.precisionmovement.coach/knee-pain-solution/ Respectfully, we are going to continue to use the language that is familiar to us, common to our industry, and hope to influence you to learn it.

Thanks. I was suspecting tight quads, but since i know that a painful tendon weakens the surrounding muscles i was hesitent to roll the quads. But because how u explained that a weak psoas tightens the rectus femoris, this makes alot more sense. i have both patellar tendonitis and a hip impingement. Both i suspect to be related to weak hip flexion did the full sequenze except the ball, feels better already. I did hip flexor leg curls etc before, but it seems in hindsight weighted exercises were too rough. Yours are better to begin with

I got a ruptured patella tendon out of the blue after golfing. My quads had a been a bit stiff and cranky and I just thought a few stretches and walking would sort them. How naive! Sitting for too long and not plying the quads and psoas are a great way to approach this. Otherwise it is just sport massage and although the tendon was better and stronger after, I could still feel it. So looking to work on these aspects is just what I need.

Thanks for this video. I've been using my foam roller wrong. I have minor patellar tendonitis (or so I think). My tendon 'pops' when I lower my leg down from a raised positioned. The pop happens what feels like to the touch and internally about 2 inches below the bottom of the knee - top side not behind. It just feels uncomfortable. I operate heavy equipment all day and I use my right foot to teeter - heel to toe - back and forth on a foot control to use a piece of the grapple excavator I am on. It doesn't hurt while I am doing it, only when I get off the machine. It pings if I move too fast aka lowering my leg down. I've been doing leg stretches everyday before work and now after, since it isn't going away. It doesn't seem so severe that surgery is required, it's just a major nuisance.

Hi coach! Would like to ask on how many repetitions I have to perform the Slumpy Psoas Activator on a regular basis. That's all & thanks for continually helping thousands of lives!

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

3 - 4 cycles are sufficient and you are welcome :)

[@chrisg6986]

Thanks for insight! Should I be trying one exercise for a few weeks? Then the next and so on? Or is it OK to mix this is all up ? I've had paid for 10+ years I need to do something

It's mind blowing just how many ways there are to try and treat this and since mine is persisting I keep reading and watching all of them but it has gotten a lot better but I still get sudden shocks that last just a step or three and then go away. Or I might just feel it "in the background" for 10-20 minutes and then it get better but after 7 months following a sudden onset it's not cured yet. I cannot make it hurt poking around at it. I was told it is patellofemoral pain syndrome and that strengthening the quads should fix it. I can still hike 25 miles but going downhill on fairly steep rough terrain is still sketchy. It acts like it wants to collapse under me but it never actually does but it has in the past.

[@waterprosurge]

@hikerJohn - how are you feeling? I too have been diagnosed with petelloforal pain syndrome and nothing I have tried has worked. I'm going to try these exercises but was curious how you're doing and if they worked for you?

[@hikerJohn]

@@waterprosurge I'm feeling good now but it will occasionally hurt if I over do it but it gets better faster now. The way you know you overdid exercising is if it hurts 24 hours later which mine has only done once in the last two months. Much better than it was three months ago and that was better than it was a couple of months before that. My advice is to just keep moving as much as you can that does not make it worse.

[@mignonmorgan2972]

This is the first exercise that has worked to minimize the pain.

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Yay!

[@lv3483]

Thank you! The pain started after long distance cycling in high gears. I tried to slowly build up with exercises and cycling, but the pain still came. I am going to try your technique. When do you think I should resume cycling again? Right now it hurts to cycle and do legs at the gym. Thank you

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Yikes! We are here to help you out. These exercises can help as can this program: www.precisionmovement.coach/knee-pain-solution-yt It is also very important to make sure that your bike fits you properly. Are you clipped in? If not, you will be overloading your knee. Let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

I have two miscues tears in right knee. Also osteoarthritis, tendinitis & bursitis. Lots of pain ...have been doing a lot of your suggested exercises and fee like it is helping. The back of my knee is having more pain than any other area right now. Is there a particular exercise I can do for this? Thank you so much for helping so many people!

That is probably hamstring tightness

Hey Coach, thank you for this video. I think my patella pain came from overuse, just now 1 month ago at 27 years old male. I try and do these daily now. If i don't have access to a medicine ball, what would be a work around for that. thank you so much for this not all heros wear capes

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Hi and thanks for the comment. We appreciate you trying out the exericses and look forward to reading about your progress. You can substitute the ball for a similarly tall object. A couch or bed are ideal as they are little unstable. Happy training :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

any vids to alleviate Patella Alta, please?

These are a good start. Try them out 2 - 3 times weekly for at least 4 weeks and send a report. Talk to you soon :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

Hi Coach E, I have been diagnosed with chondromalacia patellae and I also had ACL reconstruction surgery 10 months ago. I especially feel pain if I try to squat on one leg, sometimes the pain can last for a week after doing exercises, so I really avoid these exercises now, but I am afraid that I am becoming less and less active :( Would you say that this set of exercises is suitable for me to try, should I do any modification, having in mind the ACL surgery? Thank you!

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

We you try these exercises but stop if they cause more pain. Also, consider grabbing the Knee Pain Solution program. It can help you to assess and address the root cause of your issues: www.precisionmovement.coach/knee-pain-solution-yt Check it out and let us know what you think :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
