You're glutes and lower back, your front lower legs, your sides, etc. If you want to fix your knees, don't focus to much one the knees, but everything around your body balance
Thanks Göran! My knee has been giving me trouble for the past few weeks and it's gotten worse after my last few runs. The pain and rest days are frustrating but on the bright side, it's forcing me to realize how important injury prevention is in the long term!
Been working on mobility and strength, and today got to have a blast running through deep mud. Started thinking to myself “huh, I should look into some good exercises for my knees” and then your video went up! Perfect timing, thank you soooo much for the great info
@@HuntEthan9475I think muscle training every week. I do 1-2 per week. But not same like this. I do blocks: upper(shoulders, arms), middle(core strength), and low body(legs). I divide body but sometimes I do all body exercises in one session💪. One must find balance with running and gym.
This video literally came out at the perfect timing since i just stopped running for 5 days due to a slight knee pain and i just dont want it to get any worse so im taking a longer rest to be safe. Thabks!
I used to work 10hr days on concrete floor. I started haven’t knee pain. I determined I had loose knees. I started doing Hindu squats every day for a couple of weeks. Eliminated my knee pain for almost 2 decades.
Thank you for this!! I’m currently recovering from a slipped disc injury and have only recently got back into jogging! I noticed that my knees hurt sometimes after jogging so I’m definitely trying these exercises to strengthen them!
Been doing 130 OLS every morning, but I will switch to 25 OLS 5 days of the week, and 150 OLS the two other days. Trying tomorrow morning my first 150 OLS series... PS: also been doing jump lunges. I may add extra weight to make them harder.
My legs are always tired from running, cycling or whatsoever. I try to do the strength stuff but I guess I just lack consistency&progression. I still enjoy one of the videos you did during COVID, which helped a lot for stability.
so important, Göran!! thank you so much, having to stop because of knee aging (happened to me at 39.5 yo, 2 years ago) is a real heartbreak and stalling point, getting your insight is absolutely pivotal, thank you!
I'm so bad (lazy?!?) at doing any kind of strength work 😬 I'm always putting it down to not knowing what to do, or feeling as though it can wait until another day etc. So, thanks for these recent videos on improving strengthening! I'm going to try these exercises out! (Especially love that they require no equipment!)
Thank you so much for this video! I've recently started running again and I've been having problems with only my right knee. Most of the exercises I found are either too easy or make it hard to target the muscles that are weaker on my right side. So hopefully I'll be able to work on the disbalance now and run painfree again!
6mos. Ago im just searching to how to exercise my knees then saw this video and now im on my 6 mos. Of running and just broke my 5k limit to 10k just now. Whew im 95 kg when im started and now im 75kg feeling great every time im watching this
I recently got into Qi Gong ill definitely add these movement into my meditation sessions tyty I highly enourgae everyone to try to strengthen all muscles. do some neck movements, do some hip movements, do some arm movements, and like this video some knee movements.
Just ran a 24 hour race up and down a mountain. Got 10 laps up and down for around 100 km traveled and 8000m up and down in about 22 hr. 15 min. During the last two descents, one of my knees was killing me. Today it's better, but definitely need to strengthen up. Such a timely video, many thanks!
Lovely video, I don't do running, I used to do climbing and now I'm not even doing that, but I was actually thinking about strengthening my knee for health reasons
AH THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS GÖRAN!! I really needed this because after I was doing really well with my running I got a really bad knee injury and when I tried to run again that’s the first thing that hurt😢
This is great! I have run on and off for 7 or 8 years and consistently had issues with my right knee. Just trying the first exercise I struggle so much more balancing on my right leg. This will be great to train the supportive muscles
Thanks for this, came right in time! I’m training for my first ever marathon and my knee is giving me a hard time. During my runs there are no issues, but once I stop running my knee hurts like hell and it’s difficult to walk on for one or two days (depending on how long my run was). Will be trying out these exercices for sure!
What's interesting is that most of these exercises ALSO can be used as a dynamic warmup routine. Specifically the lunges and the one leg squat (which I recommend on an elevation). Also on a different note, all of those work well as a weightlifting warmup too
Great timing. I had a super busy running week this week (near 100k) and started feeling my knees a bit during my run today. This will help a lot in the future. Thanks a lot!
Thank you Everyone is missing on Core Power!!!!!!!! Yes we talk about the Core Exercise BUT not how to use it when running!!!!!!!!!!! When you don't use your Core power, you are just SWINGING your arms, hips and legs in the air!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In Kickboxing, all the punches and Knee Kicks are powered by Core muscles, so much power added by core!!!! In running we have to harness the core power!!!!! I used to concentrate on each induvial movement of my arms, hips and legs, now ,I don't, I just concentrate on my Core movement, your core synchronize the upper and lower body movement. I use my core power to run and not my legs , you swing your legs and arms, they are powered by Cores. Imagine a spring Rod, try to fold and let go!!! The ends are your legs and arms, middle where all the power is , is the core!!!
doing this workout for the firts time at the moment and man its pretty tough😃 had some light knee pain on my last few runs so guess i have to start with strenght work too. Just started running few weeks ago and its so much fun
Great video! I will try these out since I'm planning on running a ultra with 3k elevation, a lot of up and down and I'm most worried about being able to handle the downhill part
Your timing for this video couldnt be better. ChatGPT and AI must have improved greatly as i was just thinking about it and voila there it is. And good exercises too. Thank you.
Will definitely be using this in hiking for strengthening knees. Just check the form when you do the one leg lunges...the angle -I think its important to not over extend over the knee (:
Check out KneesOverToes guy, as long as you build it up pain free you can come as far forward as you can over the front knee and actually rebuild strength in the extreme range of motion. If you imagine the amount of times on a steep decline your knee has to go way over your toes, it makes sense to strengthen this position rather than avoid it.
Hello, i really appreciate the content you have been putting out in terms of running injuries, its awesome, keep going. But can you make a video about interior shin splints? i have been dealing with em for a year now and I haven't figured out the solution.
I am getting back into strengthening my body after a rough couple years of long covid struggles and heart problems. Additionally 6 years ago I broke my femur and so my right knee/hips always seem to give me trouble. I did this workout the other day and it took me about 3 days before the muscle soreness went away. The next 2 days my quads were sooooo sore haha. Going to keep at it to try build back the strength in my legs for hiking more. Body isn't happy with running sadly for now... Thanks for the workout
2 months later and I am already noticing huge differences. Muscles have adapted quickly and I now do a range of other exercises on top of this with dumbbells too! Been doing lot's of hikes and I have never felt stronger in my legs. Such a nice feeling. Thank you so much!
Hello Goran! Thank you so much for the informative and educational content! I was wondering how often we should perform these knee strengthening exercises? I am a beginner runner with limited experience and run about 10-15km per week. Cheers! 😁
Whoa. These are really advanced exercises. If you start doing these without doing easier ones first you will get injured. Do you know any easier ones? Less load bearing and with less knee flex?
Thank you for this video. When you do a forward lunge, are you supposed to extend the knee to beyond your ankles? I was taught that a proper lunge requires you to keep the knee directly above the ankle.
Great thank you! I actually experience pain in my knee while doing lunges. You you have an idea what I can do about it? Simply skip that exercise or is there an alternative?
Great vid Göran thank you Sadly I wanted to run ultra distances, my cardio is there but I get knee pain (outside bottom of knee) after a few miles from striking the ground. Essentially I've had to switch to swimming & biking for now because of this and had to cut running completely. I've been trying knee strengthening exercises for 2-3 months but every couple weeks I try a casual long run and so far my knee still flares up every time 😔 Do I just need more knee strengthening e.g. 6-12+ months total, or should I buy a certain type of shoe, or a knee band, or does anyone have any tips for how I can get from where I am now to running ultras without this damn knee pain? _Thank you to anyone for taking the time to read/reply_
I've had a similar problem in the past. What helped me was evaluating my gait. Sometimes in ultra running, we run very slow with very long strides. These long strides can definitely put more stress on your joints. So if you think you might be over striding, try shortening your strides a bit. Experimenting with gait could help you, it helped me a lot!
really helpful content, I was looking for some useful advices as the winter season slowly approaches in Europe. thank you ! one out-off-topic question: I realized that you also run in harsh winter conditions. Would you have a running shoe advice for winter which can protect knees and also are stable in all conditions ? I've been using Asics Kayano 30 for a while and feel very comfortable with them, however I feel like they won't be enough on tough winter days.
@Göran Winblad - My physiotherapist told me to do one-legged squats so that the knee is not overshooting the ankle by moving forward (bad for the knee). I can see you doing that, also in the clock exercise. What do you think about that?
Hi Goran, Thank you for the amazing video. I have been told that when I squat my knee should be behind my toes, being at a right angle to my ankle. Yet, in your video, you bend your knees forward far ahead of your ankle. Can you share your opinion on knee position? Thank you.
I see a guy called Göran giving advice on running and before I even click the video i'm like "this guy sounds like he knows what he's talking about"
I started running last week and I’m already hooked. Wanted to learn how to keep my knees strong because there’s no way I’m gonna let anything stop me
How is it going?

Very sensible. Don't take these strength and conditioning for granted. I did, and now I'm injured for 2 years. Better to prevent it rather than react.

Its abt technique and flexibility
🦵🦵I guess this emoji works - got some good calves on it
Agreed! Also, the squats look effortless too! Geeze
Nah. I can do the same and I need more speed
I've been trying to recover after a meniscus injury and doing these exercises after my easy runs has made a huge difference.
