Knee Hyperextension (Fix Hyperextended Knees)

[@marianna1513]

I am 36, and have had my knees like this since I can remember. I have no pain. And I can walk for miles. But standing up for long periods of time hurts. I didn't know this was not normal, since I've had it for ever. Here I thought it was some kind of normalty, and just good flexibility.

[@GrownandHealthy]

If it doenst compromise your ability or cause pain...I wouldn't worry. For many people this position has led to injuries in sports and knee pain.

[@tinacameron5526]

Im 38 and same, though when im on pc sometimes I get a sharp pain but its so rare.... standing is my only issue

[@Abhi-yp1od]

Same here I've no pain and i also thought it was normal

[@erika89765]

I’m seventeen and I just found out this year that I’ve had this. I also tend to be able to stand without discomfort for longer periods of time than my peers. And yes, I lock my knees all the time when standing… never knew it was supposedly bad. I don’t do any sports.

[@mythicalsoulz4709]

@@erika89765 Im of the same age, I do alot of sports, both my knees were hyperextended since birth, I have had absolutely no problems. My peers thought that it was actually a condition helping me with sports due to my performance in most sports. Just recently I had an acl reconstruction surgery due to a severe sports injury, as a result of it, my right leg is no longer hyperextended but my left still is, I am in an even bigger dilemma than ever, should I just leave it as it is or should I try and fix it with exercises? Even though one of my legs is hyperextended and one isn't, I feel almost no difference.

[@ruanerlobato7255]

I didn't know that was a problem... I've always been so happy because though that was a sign of natural flexibility but not a problem that could damage my mobility.

[@_.princejimin._6502]

Same...😪

[@sultainious]

Oh yeah it sure is a problem I’ve had since my teens; it never occurred to me until realized it a few years ago when researching about fallen arches (or flat feet) which is another problem I’ve had. I think both of those issues are connected, followed by hips, then back, then neck and even posture, each overcompensating for the one before it. This has lead me to work one or two, starting with arches and maybe knees to eventually fix the whole domino effect of the body that’s quite remarkable but also sucks. I wish my parents helped to address my arches while I was still young as it’s much mores solvable then, but at least it’s still possible to do so.

Yes, when performing the exercise, attempt to lockout your knees back while attempting to contact your thighs with your abdominals..you will find it very difficult, indicating end range weakness. Once you have built the strength up to perform the lockout with ease, your knees won't hyperextend unless you direct them.

[@ColynKirkland]

Look, from what I've been advised by an actual Physical Therapist, you want to shift your focus to your hamstrings (knee flexors) by strengthening them via some form of a hamstring curl. With the combination of hip flexion and knee extension -- which is what you see in the video --, you are activating your quads and hip flexors, and **STRETCHING** your hamstrings, thus, you are doing the exact opposite of what may need to be performed in order to address the problem. To reiterate, hyperextension can be a result of tight quads, and weak hamstrings. As you've discovered, when you do this exercise, you are only going to make your hamstrings more loose.

[@mythicalsoulz4709]

as someone who suffers the same fate, pls do tell me if u have found ur answer, my case is the exact same of yours, I suffered a sports injury and got a torn acl on my right, both my legs were hyperextended from birth so I thought it was normal, my friends noticed this condition a bit back but due to my good performance in most sports, they thought that it was prolly a boon in disguise, now I no longer have hyperextension in my right but I do in my left, I only had acl reconstruction a month back and I'm still young, only 17. Considering how worried my parents were, I do not consider them calm enough to make the right choice hence I haven't informed them about this. Before I choose to tell them, I would like to know if I would need a surgery on my left knee now as well or if I can correct it myself or if I should I try to get my right back to hyperextension.

Does strength training or dancing with continuously extended knees worsen it? Should we consciously try to reposition to unlock the knees while doing it ? Besides these exercises.

do deadlifts

[@Nokdu.]

Can u do curvature legs or knock knees?

[@GrownandHealthy]

There are numerous reasons for knock knees, so while I will create a video addressing them, it will not be a "1 exercise fix".

[@iliveinsideyourhouse3943]

Is the exercise still beneficial without weights?

[@GrownandHealthy]

Yes, for low back health. But may be difficult to get in the bottom position if you are really stiff (like me)
