Strengthen & Fix Your Knees
Plan Length: Indefinite
Introduction
One of the most common limiting factors for people getting in shape is “bad knees”. Whether this is due to them weakening due to a sedentary lifestyle or past injuries, it is not uncommon as a personal trainer to come across knee issues. The good news is, we have some pretty well proven methods in helping you bring your knees back into working order!
Whether you just experience knee pain for unknown reasons, or you are recovering from an injury or surgery, this plan is a great place to start rebuilding those knees.
Note: As this is a rehab plan, please talk to either Damien or Sophie if you have any questions, they can scale this plan to work with whatever your limitations are.
How It Works
This program is designed to be run two or three times a week. The general recommendation is Monday, Wednesday and Friday, but any variation will do as long as you have a day's rest between training sessions.
This program is split into two days, A and B, and you alternate between each work out. If you wish to run it three times a week, this is how it should look.
Progressions
As this is a rehab plan, it is to be done slowly and weight is only added when you are comfortable. Many of the exercises focus on increasing your range of motion in your knees, and strengthening the muscles around the knees at these different angles. So take your time, and don’t hesitate to talk to Sophie or Damien if you are confused!
