Struggling with knee pain? Strengthening the muscles around your knee—especially with single-leg exercises—can help improve stability, balance, and control, reducing stress on the joint.
Here are 4 exercises to build strength and resilience:
1️⃣ Controlled Step Up & Down – Focus on slow, controlled movement to improve knee control and stability.
2️⃣ Single-Leg RDL – Strengthens the hamstrings and glutes, taking pressure off the knee.
3️⃣ Single-Leg Squat to Bench – Builds quad strength and improves knee tracking.
4️⃣ Single-Leg Bridge – Targets the posterior chain, a key player in knee health.
Why single-leg exercises? Because most daily movements (walking, running, even standing) happen one leg at a time. Training unilaterally helps correct imbalances, improve coordination, improve balance/proprioception, and strengthen stabilizing muscles—all crucial for reducing knee pain.
