Fix Knee Pain Fast (3 Proven Steps)

[@SquatUniversity]

2 Questions: how did you like this video AND what injury area do you want me to make a video on next? I really tried to make my most comprehensive long form KZbin video on knee pain - I hope the added attention to detail and editing improvements helped!

[@beginner1639]

It absolutely did. This is such a perfect video!! Thank you for the hard work.

[@myskinmto]

This was very detailed! Especially for someone who is experiencing the exact issues you discussed- I will try these test today at and go from there-

[@vinnym8461]

Shoulder impingement pain pretty please

[@Whoosah-m7g]

Hello Dr. Aaron,Are you interested in having your video content translated into Chinese and published on Chinese video platforms? I have already sent you an email and hope to receive your response.

[@SirLiamsBlade]

Glute pain but not sciatica

[@CommanderShiz]

I’ve gone through countless videos throughout the past couple years for fixing knee pain and none have actually worked. Came across your page and it actually worked. Can finally sprint again and hit leg day pain free. We appreciate you!

[@josipa7146]

Hey, while you were in the process of fixing your knee, were you avoiding squats with heavy weight?

[@user-ti1tk2fu3h]

​@@josipa7146 I think you should just to be safe. At least until feel the pain has been gone for a little while. Rhen you can try squatting without weights or with low weights first just to test the waters. If you're fine the next day, you might be able to increase the weights.

[@Adamtronik]

Thats awesome!

[@Jose0540]

I know that in your videos you have gone through these concepts but it is super nice and useful to have all the info consolidated in one place. thank you Aaron for putting this up! Awesome content 🙏🏽

[@AdrianMcGavock]

well said amigo 👍

[@noirprncess]

I LOVE this video. You have a lot of great info in your shorts but I keep losing those. Would love the same treatment for hip issues.

[@CreaseQuest]

I know I speak for a lot of people when I say thank you for how much you share on your KZbin channel. I can’t afford physical therapy or specialized training but I want to keep working on my fitness. You give so much amazing information and helped me so much. Big fan. 100% would ask for selfie and autograph if I ever run into you.

[@jamicahan]

Hi Squat University, I wanna say thank you for this video. I really felt a big difference after doing these exercises for 3 weeks! I can feel my knees getting stronger and now I don't have knee pain after my 10km run!

[@empizzle8]

Wow man, providing the tests and solutions is such a fantastic and comprehensive answer. Thanks again.

[@nadah1615]

I was thinking of looking into fixing my knee pain because I do not want to ignore it anymore. I opened YT and I found this suggested to me!! I was already planning on going through your content here on Instagram to learn what to do, but lucky me, everything I need is here in one place. THANK YOU

[@AdrianMcGavock]

I can confirm that 'Rebuilding Milo' lives up to the hype... I use it as a reference to follow up what I learn from Dr. H's channel... both together (plus, importantly.... applying what they say) will save you a fortune - both in wasted physio/chiro bills and injury prevention!👍

[@FitFighter15]

Thankyou, similar is awaited for Shoulder and lower back too

[@coxless_persian4115]

Found this exactly when I got knee pain in my squats and were overwhelmed by the amount of data online. Thanks a lot

[@ozzy6162]

I seem to have become injury-prone since reaching my 60s back in 2022. My injury library is made up of "Rebuilding Milo", "Rehab Science" & "Built From Broken" - all great books. While I'm plugging books I may as well say that Aaron's "The Squat Bible" is also an excellent book & has helped me improve my form.

[@mattz.7761]

Comprehensive. Been waiting for a video like this. Recently injured my knee doing squats. Going to start rehabbing it this week.

[@Adrian-cn5rk]

I love that even though you've gone over these movements in countless videos, however; I definitely needed this in depth movements

[@alw-3052]

I make almost all of your exercises for knee & shoulders before every WL training for the last half year. It's really helpful. Thanks!

[@eduarddez4416]

I'd just like to thank your for your advice , switched to barefoot shoes and had no knee pain while running . Learning how to brace my core during squats has greatly reruced my lower back pain while squatting! I am also gonna follow it up by hip flexibility and strengthening for my left side , as i noticed i am completely unable to externally rotate my left hit . Hopefully these things will help with my squat to be pain free😎

[@jamesboysen9056]

Hey, Doc! I’m a chiropractor and love your videos! I am learning a lot even after almost 30 years experience. I just watched you back popping video on chiropractors and agree to some extent that most times we are cavitating joints. There are a few more things that happen when you cavitate a joint. Functional MRI has sown that it lights up the brain, established a reflex that relaxes the muscles around it, and decreases nociception. That may be part of the reason the adjustments help people feel better. Also, there are times when I do the first one or two adjustments, the segment seems to move more than the cavitations I would get with follow up visits. It was like something was truly out of place. Those seem to get the greatest benefit for pain, in my opinion. I don’t advocate endless adjustments, and I fully agree with stabilizing the area with exercise. That’s why I love your channel. Keep up the good work. You are helping so many people in a fun and informative way!

[@paulrenwick6231]

Hi Where are you based. I have chronic back pain for 20 years. And by the looks of it your the man who could help me. Thanks

[@grantmurdock9325]

I’d love a video on shoulder impingement pain located in the front corner of the shoulder. It isn’t accompanied with any lack of mobility, but it clicks all the time and hurts when used a lot

[@Akashb71]

I had knee pain on one side for months squatting heavy weights, i couldnt even do a proper single leg pistol squat I did watch your old videos and integrated the touchdowns and step ups from a height for a few weeks. Now, I can do 20kg pistol squat 💪 Thank you

[@georgipoorgi]

Going to try this with my mom, she’s been complaining of knee pains. Thank you!!

[@khanamaan786]

Most informative and useful video about knee pain and it relates to my problem which no one knows or not telling me how to fix it without medication. This guy is doing a wonderful job and helping lots of people who are in pain. Respect and many thanks to you.

[@davidbresson8670]

This is golden. I knew most exercices but it's great to have them all in one place and the self-assessment part definitely helps make sense out of it. Thanks!! My Achilles tendons tend to be overactive. I would love a video about that

[@salvatorecampanile6696]

The most complete analysis of hip and knee mobility/stability problems with appropiate solutions.

[@empatheticrambo4890]

This has been so helpful even after just a day of trying it!!

[@diana.forgodsglory9224]

I saw a physical therapist today who spent about 10 minutes with me and basically dismissed my knee pain giving the advice that squats and lunges aren’t good for knees and just don’t “over do it” in the gym without giving any more detailed advice (despite me being worried and confused). I was so sad because I love working out! Especially bodybuilding type movements. Thank you for this vid 🙏🏽 I’ll try it out and hope I can find out how to fix it rather than give up doing the things I love 👍

[@Ilikethisplaylist]

Our savior, the one we need but don't deserve. Thanks a million ! ❤

[@CharbelAbbas]

This is the best video on your channel. Just watching it makes me feel like I can save my knees! Thanks boss good work!

[@annettehess2]

Hey Aaron I have followed your canal quite some time, and love the level of information you deliver 🙏🏻 Excersice: I would like, if it is possible, your solution on how to get strong in squat. Injury: 1: osteoporosis 2: L5 level 1 spondylolistesis because of a little fracture in one of the arches. 3: L3+L4 compressed Level of activness: slow running with backpack to gain foot stability Barbell power, snatch, Pilates, pull-ups and some CrossFit Don’t like to do Deadlift, it hurts. Hope you get inspired 😜 Regards and thank you Annette

[@pgds_]

awesome video and channel! If the conversion from the American dollar to the Brazilian real wasn't 6/1 I would buy your book now! God bless you greatly Hugs from Brasil!

[@0wnleeWun]

Greatest video of all time! 🙌🏻 thank you! I’m a personal trainer working on improving my fitness again. My legs are slightly different lengths and I know I definitely have hip rotation and mobility differences between sides. My husband also dislocated his knee a while back and is still experiencing some pain after recovery, but I’ve recommended your and Ben Patrick’s exercises to get his knees stronger

[@adamnaboulsi255]

Firstly, I wanna thank you tremendously for this video and the book you put out recently! You have helped myself and sooo many people with the elaborate, detailed, and clear content you put out there. I’ve got a question about these exercises. Following your squat stance video I’ve found that my body prefers to have my toes pointed out with a wider stance in my squat. Does that affect in any way how I should do these exercises? I sometimes find that it’s more difficult for me to balance with my toes pointed forward. Thanks again!!

[@rubatsch1713]

Thank you for all the free content. Your advice saved my basketball season and means I can continue to squat and do plyometrics pain free. Also means I can sit, travel and work without worrying about hip pain.

[@briankendall6442]

Absolutely LOVE this video! Could you please do the same in depth assessment / program design for shoulder girdle deviations.!.? ... Not sure if your viewers know just how invaluable this information is.?. I have been a certified personal trainer for 20 years and I learn something from you in almost every video!!! Thank U!!! *... and don't stop reinforcing the benefits of a wide toe box 😉

[@skipperchen8354]

Thank you so much for these valuable content you've been putting out! After seeing local doctors and PT without positive results, I'm fixing my knee pain by leaning your content and I'm making real progress!

[@MZell6789]

100000% Love this format. Tailbone pain plz

[@LP3me]

Great video. I’ve watched your shorts for a long time and tried taking mental notes on the ones about knee pain. This video is all about that, great video, thanks!

[@starshine7937]

You are doing a great service to everyone who watches your channel.

[@kellenkemp7830]

I’ve been needing literally this exact video! Thank you 🙏🏼

[@chris_casper]

You have no idea how much I needed this video.... Thank you 🙏

[@unbreakablepatchesgr]

I've been doing this entire routine as a warmup for a quad dominant leg day, despite my mobility being good. It's quick and useful.

[@REGRIGBY5678]

I've been watching Squat U's content for a long time now and have learned a ton; this is a really comprehensive video on diagnosing and fixing knee pain which is sick and will help a ton of people. I've been doing a lot of the movements in this video for about a year now and seen a lot of improvements in stability, mobility, and strength of my posterior chain. I just wished it would have fixed my bilateral knee pain lol.

[@myskinmto]

I needed this- been dealing with knee pain that has stopped me on my from training for 2 weeks now! I only have pain with bending as in Squats and I know my stability is off

[@seang81]

Hi Aaron, love your videos so much and they've helped me a lot in the past. Long story short I have this really chronic shoulder/collarbone/neck problem that's been consistent for at least 2 years and I've been to 4 physios and spent a couple thousand on the opinions of those experts trying to fix it. I am getting desperate and I feel like someone of your calibre might be able to really help me out. It's really getting in the way of my enjoyment of life and motivation at the gym. I hope you see this. Cheers, Sean.

[@alvaroayuso5435]

This is gold for me honestly.. Thank you very much!

[@kalk7853]

I'm very impressed by your channel. You are a great teacher. Thank you for your education.

[@WWxLts88]

Will be implementing these in my routines!!! Thanks a lot champ!!! 🫡

[@trouschyoutub]

Thank you for this, and for the chart at 12:00

[@90hvalem]

I love this video and I do appreciate you providing this type of guidance! Next for me would be pain under the shoulder blade. Putting my arms behind my back(imagine having a button up shirt on and trying to button it) is so painful and for some (button) areas impossible. Thanks in advance!

[@TheMakiepoo]

The video is great. The tibial exercise was the best for me. Thanks!!!

[@1_1_Ak1_1_1]

I waited 4 years for this Complete Video, thank you

[@bloodybeggar]

Thank you so much for the detailed video. I have had knee pain in one leg that doesn't go away how much ever I stretch. I have one question, if you can answer it please - what if both legs are in the air in FABER test?

[@ryanlie6250]

Crazy how your channel teaches me more practical and valuable stuff than my PT degree

[@YourNickIsTaken]

Thank you for giving health for free through the internet!

[@nahasshamsudeen4000]

thank you very much its understand easily could u do a video like this about shoulder pain

[@Isnax27]

Awesome stuff! You make a huge difference by sharing this information. There’s nothing worse than not being able to run or play your sport because of knee pain. However, one thing you talked about in another article on your website was box squats. You spoke about how essential they are and to do them with heavy load for the tendon to respond. Is that still as important ? I see here you go straight to a deep squat progressively adding weight. Where does the box squat fit into this, if at all?

[@lb-zo3ir]

Firstly, thank you for your content! Appreciate the straight ford and salient points. I constantly refer folks to your channel and videos that I’ve saved for troubleshooting and in addition to their HEP. Future content request: Can you do one similar to this for shoulder and low back pain? If you already have one I’m sorry 🫣 link? 🙏

[@PankajSaini-ls1vz]

Thank you for your recent videos on shoulder stability thank you 🙏❤️

[@timothycheok7324]

This is the video I have been waiting for ! Thank you ! Will there be one for shoulder pain/instability soon ?

[@alvaroayuso5435]

Please Squat University!!! I have Tibial Rotation restrictions in my painful side, but not internally, but externally, should this also apply then? Thanks in advance! I must say I bought your book and is amazing, now I need the time to read and train :,(

[@connorshackleford8302]

Hey man. I’m currently studying sport rehab at university and am loving it so much !. My goal is to reach your level of knowledge and practice and career. I would like to ask what literature research database do you use ?. Pub med? Google scholar ? Etc. also any suggestions for me to really enhance my skills to ensure employability?. Thank you

[@Bart3zS]

Bro, you are amazing and very inspiring... Want a suggestion for common knee injuries in sports? Jumper's knee and runner's knee and (mainly) young athletes: Osgood-Schlatter disease. Once again, good job!

[@Lasor4]

This is super great and I've incorporated MANY of your corrective movements into my warm-ups and workouts, so thank you SO much. What would you suggest I do about a partially torn patellar tendon? T^T

[@Yupppi]

Got definitely called out with the first animation already. More opened left foot, knee tracking inside, knee pain. And yep, less range in Faber, hip internal rotation and the motion of dorsiflexion (the good side touches the wall, the bad side has from three fingers to a full fist before the ankle starts hurting and stops). As well as tibial internal rotation. Royal flush, what do I win? In the band under foot knee opening I can't feel anything in the glute. No matter how hard I pull or open the knee. More like inner side of the quad or hamstring. Yet I can do a deep squat with or without weightlifting shoes. However doing all these drills made the knee touch the wall without pain or heel lifting on the bad ankle leg.

[@dann317]

Great vid! Thank you. You're helping me stay afloat

[@nicosaboonchi678]

Trying this routine out, tore my knee a long time ago and have been gotten MRI and PT but didn’t help. Will report back in few weeks.

[@user-ti1tk2fu3h]

Waiting...

[@TheMediumalist]

Still waiting bro

[@atharvajoshifr4380]

[@user-ti1tk2fu3h]

I'm back again. 😂

[@baaittyy]

I’m having awful knee pain while squatting now. Hopefully this video helps.

[@laxmanrana1190]

Hi Dr. love from india I have been watching your videos for 2 years. I wana share my problem, i have hip arthritis in right side, I do weight training to strengthen my muscels as suggested by my physiotherapist but whenever I start to do squats or deadlifts I got these problems:- Right knee pain, Right hamstring stretch and pain, and mostly when ever I progress in squats and deadlifts try to go deep I either have groin Injury or Pain in left side which take me back to zero level. Can you address these issues with solutions in your any videos or in shorts?

[@SereneWinsFitness]

Awesome!! This channel helped me so much 💪🏽♥️🍀

[@A86-km6nn]

bam. hello doctor I had an ACL operation three years ago. But after 80 sessions of physiotherapy, my knee is still weak and unbalanced, and during this pad my hip has also weakened. I live in Iran and I cannot come to your office. If there is a way for me to practice from the videos and improve.❤

[@JackDespero]

Amazing video. Thank you for sharing.

[@skinart00203]

Hi! Am from Mauritius 🇲🇺 Can I have exercise for patella inflammation? Thanks a lot 🙏🙏🙏

[@udayjadhav3062]

bro big fan of you and your videos i am 47 diagonosed with disc bulge in l2-3 l3-l4 6 mm only l4-l5 l5-s1 please guide me with proper leg excercises this is gentle request.

[@ninjasteph8350]

Cool video. my knee problem is perfectly fine when squatting and split squatting tho. lunging and jumping causes the pain to flare up. Still very informative ❤

[@aroundtheworld6093]

Thank you so much Aaron❤

[@cedricmcgwaza7302]

Thank you man One can always learn even if I'm a qualified trainer,

[@calebtaylor2487]

Should I do this stuff before each squat sessions? I tend to squat then either bench or ohp 2-3 times a week. It takes me about 20m of fiddling around in the gym for my knees to not feel awful. My schedule sucks so full body compound motions are the way to go.

[@caiax109]

I recently injured my knee playing soccer, i didn't see a doctor to talk about my problem but i have a hypothesis about what happened to me. I think i had like a hyper extention on my knee while playing, i'm not able to stretch my right leg properly, it hurts. I've been doing isometric exercises since then and the pain is decreasing. Do you think that if i follow your program i will me able to strech my leg properly again? love your videos bro.

[@caiax109]

thanks for the tips by the way

[@lucaslimal3]

I have all problems. Nice!

[@nebuchadnezzer1]

This is perfect. Thank you

[@sandeepansurkar2508]

@SquatUniversity Video on ulnar nerve impingement please.

[@folgadorosa5675]

This is what i need! Thank you.

[@hellstrjfe151]

I rememberd sub this channel below 100k and now he has over 5m sub. What a crazy performent ❤

[@abdelaesus6678]

Thx. Great video. I have one question, though. I have a lack of tibial rotation on the side of the painful knee. So, should I do the mobility exercise on that leg only, or both ?

[@delta1ster]

Great explanation and answers. Thanks 🙏🏽

[@Septa-f4d]

Can you remake the half kneeling weight shift

[@kcbm225]

I dont have any knee pain when squatting, running or any exercise. But somehow on my off days i have a minor pain when squating just to sit down. Ill try this

[@daver9571]

Incredible video! Thank you!

[@shajithahamed7091]

Please upload grade 1 acl rehab

[@TheArtofSelfActivation]

I have a supposed full acl tear and bucket tear from an BJJ injury. I can to a deep squat as long as I go slow and hip hinge properly to the best of my knowledge! I would like getting stronger I am 51 I am not giving up! I would like building some muscle!

[@yoohanjr]

I have had repeated meniscus tears that have healed on their own but has slight crunchiness, but overall have great stability. Should I be worried?

[@audi7468]

감사합니다. 선생님

[@Popsiclestand86]

A video I haven’t see is a specific shoulder problem: the shoulder hiking up like you’re doing a shrug but only on the injured side. Im sure it’s a general shoulder instability but the shoulder i had surgery on some time ago constantly hikes up unless I do lots of rolling on the lacrosse ball throughout the week.

[@laijflohadf]

Could you talk about how to fix arm numbness while doing barbell squats?

[@ifollowjesus1667]

You are probably placing the barbell higher into the back of your neck instead of your upper back. Numbness is not a good sign, check your form. God bless

[@thistamndypo]

I had numbness too. It was caused by tight pecs from side sleeping. If you have rounded shoulders then you might have the same problem that I did.

[@user-ti1tk2fu3h]

How did you fix it?​@@thistamndypo

[@TRICGR]

Perfect guidance, thx!

[@JasonPope-m2g]

I think he’s a wizard, awesome!

[@IbzanOrtiz-ms8my]

I have a internal a knee pain for more than 6 months I had X-rays but it looks ok. I ride bike and made a lot of exercise I follow your videos and do your recommended for the knee pain. But I have seen any for the internal knee. My right one is the worst. I feel a lot of pain when I’m sleeping and I use a pilot to avoid one leg over the other.

[@vadimknf]

This video is amazingly useful
