## Caption

Your knee is a hinge. When your ankles and hips lock up, that hinge absorbs forces it was never designed for.
You don't have bad knees. You have knees that are doing everyone else's job.
ㅤ
The knee is a hinge joint. Forward, backward. That is its entire skill set. It has no ability to rotate, absorb sideways force, or self-correct when the joints above and below it stop pulling their weight. Your ankle is supposed to dorsiflex so your lower leg can travel forward smoothly. Your hip is supposed to rotate internally and externally so your femur tracks straight. When the ankle stiffens and the hip locks, all of that unmanaged force funnels directly into the knee. Over months and years, that's how pain builds. Not because the knee failed, but because the ankle and hip stopped showing up.
ㅤ
This reel breaks down exactly why that happens and gives you three drills targeting the tibialis, the hip flexors, and full range lateral hip mobility. These are the three weak links that unlock pain free knees for the majority of people dealing with this.
ㅤ
Save this for your next session.
