Knee Pain During a Workout? (EASY PERMANENT FIX) Trevor Bachmeyer | SmashweRx

A lot of knee problems, namely, patellar tendonitis, are the result of your body not ‘delegating’ its power delivery properly.
.
The quads have mistakenly become the primary driver in anything even resembling a squat.
.
Your nervous system throws power requests into the quads and shuts down the massive horsepower available from the glutes and hamstrings.
.
Understand that the patellar tendon is designed to take HUUUUGE forces, however when it becomes redundant and poorly distributed, that tendon taps out.
.
Before you start running down the path of corrective movements and long drawn out rehab, you NEED to increase load capacity of the tendons.
.
See, tendons heal and grow much slower than muscle tissue. Like...A LOT.
.
Load capacity and control is actually simple to rectify, all that you need to do is bypass the neurological inhibition that’s kicked in because things are in pain.
.
No matter how ‘tough’ you may be, you can’t overcome the pain/power redistribution reflex.
.
And since you can’t bypass that reflex, you need to fix the problem.
.
The first rule is to unload the system FIRST.
.
1️⃣ Real Quad Stretch - 2 minutes per side.
2️⃣ Static Wall Support - 2 minute hold
Variation - single leg hold
3️⃣ Split Squat Variation - 3 sets of 10 slow reps per side.
4️⃣ Tempo Box Squat - 3 sets of 10 reps (4 seconds eccentric, 1 second concentric)
.
Run through this sequence 3 times per week and get back to squatting!!
