Knee pain is truly a problem. It affects the quality of life, and not surprisingly, women are afraid to exercise in the fear of making it worse.
As a fitness coach, I see girls as young as 12 years old experiencing knee pain.
Let's get this straight, unless there is a known cause, eg., sport related injury to knee, fracture or arthritis, most likely the cause of Knee pain is due to lack of mobility and stiffness in the joint above (hip) or below (ankle) the knee.
👉There are many reasons for the cause of the stiffness and lack of mobility in these joints, including
🔸1. Wearing improper footwear
🔸2. Lack of strength in the supporting muscles
🔸3. hip flexor stiffness due to prolonged sitting
🔸4. excessive loading of the knee
⁉️Now that you know the cause, would you like to know what exercises to start with?
