I have pain in that area but it's from the back, and whenever I do hamstring curls is when I feel pain. It seems like I hurt it squatting, but squatting does not cause pain. Do you know what that could be?

[@mylesmw]

@E3 Rehab I found this video incredibly useful - and I mean incredibly useful, there are so few videos like this which break down exercises into stages, thoroughly addressing pain guidelines, and the usual rep set tempo info. Following this video, I now think my issue could be patellar maltracking. Do you have any videos on patellar maltracking disorder/could you cover this issue in a new one?

[@whitecrane542]

Just a few helpful tip reminders for anyone with this problem, never to go bowling cause it places all the force on the knee’s tendon when you stop cause after I did it brought my knee tendinitis right back severely and has taken close to a year to get about back to normal but I was also about 20 pound more than what I used to weigh and I know from the past that once you drop your extra weight then the knee tendinitis should begin to go away much more effectively. Also this loading that you speak of is spot on cause how this seemed to be brought about was doing sprinting intervals which must place a lot of load as you describe. Last but not least if your doing exercises for this problem first go to the the leg extension machine and do lighter weight starting with very light then getting a bit heavier. Why you want to use this exercise is to very effectively warm up the tendon area by saturating it with blood but still focusing on flexing the thigh muscles and not so much the knee and one warning some leg extension exercises put more strain and too much strain on the knees so try to pay close attention to this if that be the case, if so then I would simply do seated leg extensions with no weights at all. One week I went straight to the leg press machine and tried warming up there and my pain through the entire workout was almost unbearable at about 7/10 but the very next week I tried warming up with the leg extension because what I heard a pro bodybuilder say due to the importance of warming up the knee area and I was completely blow away to discover that my pain in my knee went down to practically 1/10 and I was even able to do heavy sets on the leg press but not recommended. I really didn’t begin to do better until I really focused on resting that knee all the time especially when I was setting to keep it in a relaxed position cause if you didn’t believe me your knee will let you know.

I’ve been dealing with this type of pain for about 3-4 weeks now. Ignoring it till it started getting worse. I finally started researching and this video is by far the best I’ve seen. I’ve been doing everything you explain to the best of my ability and two weeks in my knee pain has improved drastically. For anyone who is having doubts give it a chance, you won’t regret it. Thank you so much!!

[@CaneFan423]

Did your knee make clicking or popping sounds while going through movements on exercises? Mine is doing that right where the pain is. It's been around 3 months now since I've had this injury but the past couple weeks I've started trying out light weight exercises on it. I've found that the pain slowly goes away after doing a quick warmup then I up the weight slightly and I can tolerate it better. But its still a light weight.

[@noe_salazar20]

@@CaneFan423 Nah man, my knee never clicked at any point. I play a lot of basketball but never injured my knee in any way. One day I just woke up and started having pain. The pain hasn’t completely gone away but it’s definitely max at worst #2 level pain from 1-10, 10 being max pain. It’s definitely helped because it used to hurt quite a bit. There are some days I forget it’s there.

[@noe_salazar20]

@@alexpuiu5011 I would play 2-3 times a week for about 1-1/12 hours each session prior to my knee pain. Usually by myself as well, not game related. I’m a guard so I would dribble a lot, cut a lot, and always went fast paced. After the pain, I did what he recommended in terms of how to make my knee stronger with the exercises he recommended and started playing only once a week at a moderate level. Maybe 70 percent, with a lot less cutting and dribbling. I continued to work on my handle but more stationary then drive to the basket based. I took this as an opportunity to work on my shot since that doesn’t take much effort. It’s gotten much much better since then but still have a an extremely minor amount of knee pain. Still only play once a week but now I go 80 percent for 30 minutes then 100 percent for 30 minutes.

I suffered severely with this BOOM BUST cycle. It led to me completely withdrawing from sport and training and led me down a road of drink and drugs and severe depression. This happened over a three year period coinciding with the death of my mother. After giving up alcohol ten months ago I'm finally back doing exercises to help increase my load tolerance. My goal is to jog one day again. Thank you for this incredibly insightful video. It gives me hope. Most people don't understand the mental torment an injury can have on you.

Knee pain is no joke. 21 years old and had it for over 4 months. Didn’t want to take time off lifting for a long time so tried to work around it. I had to ice my knees almost daily.

[@samuelhandfitness]

This might be the best-structured and researched video I’ve ever watched. Been through multiple PT sessions and out of running for 3 months from this injury and finally feel like there’s a path forward after watching this 🙌 Edit: also just want to say that everything in here about the way of diagnosing patellar tendinopathy (i.e., pain below the patella, speed and rate of load being more relevant than weight of load, and dose-dependent response) all hit bullseyes for me. I’ve been able to squat over 300 on this knee but the second I try to run or, more recently, snowboard, it’s crazy sore and stiff the next day. Thanks again for such a thorough treatment of this subject.

[@jalub014]

My left knee was hurting for about a month. I went to my doctor and she sent me for a rentgen - all was okay, no trauma there. Then I encountered this video and started doing the wall sits and slow squats daily and I felt almost immediate pain relieve now after about two weeks of doing these exercises daily I was able to start running again. Thanks so much for this! Now I just need to keep at it and try to progress through the stages to prevent this happening to me again in the future. BTW this happened to me after rapidly increasing the difficulty of my runs - I went from about weekly 40km to about 60 in a month or so.

[@JPS1223]

You did the exercises literally everyday ?? I have Tendinosis on my knee so I just found this video. I don’t play sports but I do like to run. What is your exercise plan on the knee daily ?? Just asking I’m curious since I want to get my knee better

[@jalub014]

@@JPS1223 I am basically doing the wall sits that are suggested in the video meaning 3-5 sets of 45s 1-3 times a day. More specifically I did 5 sets after waking up - I walk to work for about 2km and this made it less painful while the knee was iritated. After work I do 3 sets of wall sits and add about 3 sets of 10 of slow squats. in the evening/before sleep I am doing another 3 sets of wall sits, but I tend to skip these sometimes tbh. In my case, the wall sits really were a good way to relieve the pain as I felt better almost instantly after doing them so basically any time it was bothering me I would just do a wall sit for a bit maybe not even the full 45s but just enough for me to feel better. As an update I am one again able to run 10+km and I am preparing for a half marathon that I almost gave up on few weeks back. Hope this helps and wish you to get better soon!

As a 54 year old veteran who is about 100 lbs overweight, I recently went back to the gym. About 3 years ago, I had been working out and had lost some weight but had a freak (non-workout related) accident where I shattered my kneecap and detached my patellar tendon. After some family tragedies, loss of employment and the pandemic, I am now back to trying to get back into shape and be healthy again. This time I decided to take a personalized diet plan from Next Level Diet, and even hire a personal trainer to make sure I don’t cause injuries to my 54 year old body with all my limitations from past accidents and age. My trainer and I are focusing on strength training to help with injury prevention and prevent osteoporosis (which runs in my family) and help with arthritis and balance. It has been about a month and I am already feeling so much stronger!!😎😎

Stellar presentation. This helps me better understand both my experience of healing and progress over the course of 9 months as well as a relapse I've experienced. I went through the upward functional curve over a long, steady period, then to make a few mistakes that had set me on the downward curve for a few weeks. I will be working to reverse that yet again. Also super helpful that you took time to clear up the terminology at first. Thank you! UPDATE EIGHT MONTHS ON: I can't tell you how much this helped me to get back on track. The value of understanding the problem cannot be overstated! Since posting this comment I have allowed no more than 2-3 days between tendon strengthening exercises which I've combined with my normal (very knee load intensive) training sessions as I've been able to scale up. I do advanced level parkour with many sprints, leaps, big drops and hard landings. 8 months ago, during my relapse, just walking down stairs could be incredibly painful. I now routinely and repeatedly absorb drops from 10 ft or more without experiencing any discomfort during and often not even after the sessions.

Have neen suffering from non-diagnosed knee pain for almost two years following a repetitive strain type injury. I don't have access to a Dr. so have been relying on self diagnosis via YT videos. Have been rehabbing using exercises from one of your other knee pain videos and have been improving. But this, I feel is the definitive diagnosis. Any strength training rehab is better than none, but will modify my training to include these exercises. Also now know that a bit of pain is not to be feared.

I have been working on diagnosed patellar "tendonitis" in both knees (though the right is definitely worse for me), for the last two years now primarily through strength training and balance exercises. I must say your video has been a great education to help me further my progress. There are definitely some additional exercises I will be adding to my rehab routine as a result of watching this! Thanks so much 🙏 😊

Wow! It seems like Mr. Mark Surdika really knows his field. After watching this video, I would say that my physical therapist at Kaiser is at elementary shcool level in understanding what she recommended for my problem. I finally find someone who really knows -with scientific reports- what supports his recommendations. So, Thank you for all this valuable information E3 R3hab!!! Keep it up.

I was given an order to rest and instructed to perform left glute static stretching every three hours for my patellar tendinopathy (oh and ultrasound and tens 🙄). No excercises, no stages, no timeline, just "you have a tight glute." Needless to say it's been 8 weeks and it's not getting any better, and now I have pain just walking and I'm pretty sure my left glute isn't the only thing that's tight after all that rest. Did some banded seated knee extensions and wall sits just now and I don't think my quads have ever been this weak in my life. Starting stage 0 today. Thanks to the moon and back for this video. It is much appreciated.

[@connerhoyt6913]

This is awesome! I started experiencing patellar tendinopathy symptoms in August, but was keen on still running my first marathon in October. In the 6 weeks beforehand, I almost entirely nixed running from my training (opting for biking to stay in shape without as much impact). I wasn't following a formalized training plan, but I scaled back to no more than 16 miles and 1-2 running sessions per week. After taking 3 weeks completely off from running, I'm training for another marathon in February and am now able to sustain 3-4 sessions of running a week and 25 miles a week. I've had occasional flare-ups, but am definitely sitting in the healthy 3-5 level of pain, whereas before, I needed a clunky brace just to sit at a 6-9 level of pain. Since October, I've worked a lot on strengthening ankles, knees and hips, but have been looking for more practical knee isolation exercises. Thank you for this, will definitely be incorporating these into my strength training!

For years I was walking up and down stairs diagonally. I've had so many injuries over the years, this came out of nowhere and was by far the most frustrating.

[@Zoocsgo]

I was a student athlete and when I was 13/14 and going through a growth spurt I jumped down some stairs and felt one of the worse pains ever in my knee. I couldn't bend my knee more than a few degrees. A few months later when it's better I was running 100m and pulled it again in the warmup. It seems to have got better with age but if I run up the stairs 15+ years later I can still feel an 'electric shock' occationally under my knee cap

Just as a heads up, I thought I had this as well (years ago) turned out I had a tear which eventually ripped in half and had to get surgery to repair it. Now I don't expect that every hint of tendonitis will be this scenario but you may want to get some imaging done as a preventative measure. If you catch a tear it can probably be repaired through a small incision in the knee. Me? I've got a long scar over my knee because they have to open it up to repair/reattach the torn tendon. Hopefully this message helps someone at some point.

I had dealt with jumpers knee for over a year after it just sprang up one day out of nowhere during a pickup game. I was distraught, as I was only 18 at the time. I had no idea what it was at first, so I kept my activity level the same. I figured I had just thrown something off and I'd be fine in a couple days. I was not. I'm a very serious skier and basketball was a very serious hobby as well. I had to completely give up basketball. The best thing I could have done was drop everything and start a routine. Including stretches, strengthening exercises, and icing everyday. My youth proved to win out, and I did all of those things very sparingly. I payed the price, and had extreme knee pain for over a year and half. I felt old, and depressed that I couldn't perform with my full athletic ability and had constant pain. Eventually, stretching everyday and taking lots of magnesium, it went away. It was somewhat miraculous, since then I've been able to continue skiing and pick up skateboarding. Both high impact sports, but I stretch before and after every exercise now. That seems to keep me in check. If you begin to have this condition, TAKE IT SERIOUSLY. It is not fun. This was caused by not stretching. I had scar tissue all over my quads, and they were incredibly tight. This is what put excess stress on my patellar tendon, on top of my height(6'2"). Stretching is sooo important friends. Sorry for the ramble, but I figured I'll let yall know how much of a pain in the ass this condition can be.

I delt with this from the beginning of 8th grade until halfway through freshman cross country season, it ended up going away which dropped my times tremendously, I ran from 20:08-20:42 throughout the season and had to wear a knee brace but the injury left the week of league and I ran a 19:09 and 19:07 at districts. But after a year of it being gone, it came back worse than ever a few weeks ago (3 weeks after end of sophomore xc season) and am now getting back into running, but not nearly as much as I was a month ago when I was healthy. At my peak I was a sub 18:30 5k runner but now with this I'd probably be lucky to break 20 because of the pain that is caused if I go under a 6:30 mile pace, when I had been having 5k races at or below 6:00 mile pace, and I really hope this is able to fix it because I want to be able to run a sub 5 mile in track and sub 11:20 2 mile. I also want to make it to state once by the time I graduate and don't want this injury slowing down my progress towards those goals

Finally got relief from probably 7 months ago. Dealt with it for about 6 months. Honestly, worst advice was from those saying not to bend it as much. What really started working for me was finally sitting down and resting instead of doing extreme activities, and working on knee mobility exercises in the meantime. Depending on your severity, there are some stretches and exercises you may not be able to do in the moment if too severe, or you may even be able to stick to your sport if it isnt that severe yet. You should be somewhat able to make that judgement. This guy seems good. Can also recommend kneesovertoesguy and Strength Side. Finding KOT guy was when I really noticed fast relief, along with rapid progress in actually getting better.
