Comment KNEE and we’ll send you the full routine to bulletproof your knees.

If your knees hurt every time you squat… stop blaming the squat. 👀

The real issue isn’t the movement, it’s your mechanics.
Weak quads, inactive hips, and poor joint control make your knees take all the load.

Here’s the fix:
1️⃣ Test it: do a step-down and squat test to find where pain kicks in.
2️⃣ Strengthen it: add TKEs and pelvic tilts to rebuild knee stability and hip alignment.

Most knee pain isn’t injury, it’s imbalance. Fix the system, not the symptom. 💪
