  • Knee arthritis responds very well to the right and the wrong activities. If you hurt, get more stiff, or swell more in your knees, then you’re certainly doing something that is going to make your knee arthritis worse in the long run.
    It gets very confusing for people when they’re told by medical professionals to do certain activities even though it hurts to do it. People often suck it up and grit through the pain and worse knee symptoms.
    The reason these activities are often recommended by healthcare professionals is because for some people at certain times, they might actually help…but they could also be disastrous when done at the wrong time for the wrong person.
    Knowing who needs the right exercises, knee arthritis treatment, and what activity is really a specialty that not many healthcare experts have. And they’re doing the best they can with what they know.
    In this video, Dr. David tells you the 11 worst activities that make knee arthritis more painful.

    In 2014 I jumped off the back of my work truck, a height of about 6ft. I'd done this many times b4, but this time my Knees buckled & I laid grimacing. To cut a long story short, my Orthopaedic Surgeon,highly recommended I have a double hip & double knee replacement, but I declined, opting to have my left meniscus removed instead! Eight years later, having adjusted my diet which includes daily intakes of Krill & vitamin K2 (M7) pills, exercising regularly, especially strengthening those Glutes, this 70yr old is still climbing ladders, doing all our own home maintenance work, pain free. I think I dodged a bullet! Thanks Dr David...I include many of your strategies👍

      John Norms, good for you for having the courage to not have the surgery!! 👏👏👍. Surgery is not the answer to everything! I tore my Meniscus around 45 years ago and refused surgery and healed myself with vitamins, Physical Therapy, and massage. The Meniscus has not bothered me since then. I do have arthritis and pain only if I eat foods that’ll irritate it, otherwise I can walk around pain free like normal!!

    WOW! Talk about “looks being deceiving,” I just started bicycling outdoors again, in an effort to strengthen my legs. & I was so happy to notice some nice definition forming in my quads. I took it as a sign that I’m getting stronger, doing something right. I had no idea it was a result of overworking my knees. Bummer. Happily, I discovered you & your awesome content. So, I’ll just have to start squeezing my butt when I ride, cuz I love riding my bike too much to give it up. I’m a senior & just getting back to riding on a regular basis after about a year & 1/2. So people are already looking at me sideways as I wabble down the sidewalk, getting my bearings. Wait til I start squeezing my glutes as I ride. That’s gonna be a sight. 🤣 Thanks very much for this crucial information, Dr. David.❤️🙏🏽😁

      I ride to alleviate my knees, 10-12 hours a week. Making sure I have my seat high takes pressure off the quad also think about your ankle rotation using the calf muscle more, this tends to use the back of my legs and glutes. Low seat is 100% quads, horrible. This works magic for me, if I go more than 2-3 days with no biking, my knees are painful. Good luck! Find what works for you.

    I attribute most of my leg, hip, and knee problems to bad advice I received a decade ago from a VA physician. His instructions were a perfect match to what you describe as pain inducing.

  • @joemarksz
    @joemarksz ปีที่แล้ว +31

    100% agree about the power of the glutes... Not only for knee but even more so for lower back. Always shocks me how little emphasis there is to how important the glutes are. The only thing that concerns me whether or not I'm allowing my quads to weaken too much by emphasizing glutes so much...

    I’m 79 y/o & retired RN. After listening to your presentation I was in pain on
    both knees. Did your glute exercises for a week now & has helped to reduce the stiffness when walking. Please continue these presentations. I’ll share these with other retired RNs.

    • @gothops2632
      @gothops2632 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @Joy Herb He said in another video not to strengthen the hamstrings either as it decreases resting muscle length of the hamstrings, which has the effect of over pressurising the knee joint.

      I'm currently recovering from miniscus surgery. Aside from huge amounts of physio and strength exercises, I walk. When I use my soft knee brace, my leg/knee feels alot more stable AND more importantly, isolates my Glutes. The difference between my quads and knees being sore after a walk, and my Glutes screaming in pain (the good/workout pain).

  • @Readit4Life_2Chron7_14
    @Readit4Life_2Chron7_14 ปีที่แล้ว +37

    Excellent review!! Great explanations. Thank you for emphasizing this critical issue. I've have talked to I'm blue in the face about one needs to be aware of muscle imbalances. One of the main reasons folks have poor posture with walking, sitting and increased joint issues in their hips, knees and ankles is poor activation & proper use of their gluteal muscles, weak abdominal &/or weak back muscles and inflexibility of their ankles. You can make your brain more aware of a muscle group you want to activate and use more by "gently" slapping that muscle - gluteal mm while you are about to exercise that gluteal mm. You see athletes doing this all the time. Your brain is powerful. IF you don't activate and properly use a muscle, then your brain will just sort of not think about activating and using that muscle. Also, one gluteal muscle = one butt cheek can be working, firing & in use more than the other butt cheek. One must work on waking up that butt cheek with more brain awareness; especially of a mild neuropathy or nerve disease or damage is causing one side of your leg & or butt cheek to be weaker than the other. Butt muscle use and strengthening is mentioned so often because it's one of the most important muscles in one's body BUT it's also one the most ignored muscle (both mentally & physically), in the body.

    Thank you so much, Dr. David, this video has been so helpful. As I listended, I see where I was doing all the wrong things. I went tp a PT who strengthened my quads to steel strenght but I still had keen pain on steps and after walking a good distance. I did machines in the gym which set my knees on fire with pain worse. Of course when I didn't feel better, wasn't getting the results, I blamed myself. I understand clearly now what I need to avoid (all 11 of these activities.) and get my glutes stronger. Thank you again.
    Ps. the weight loss, looks good on you! I am sure you can feel the difference. I watched your video where you talked about diet and foods that can help the healing/health process. All the best!!👍

    Dr. David thank you for this! I’m 61 and this year I suddenly started having knee pain. I’ve always been active loved dancing, doing yoga. With this sudden pain I went to see my GP she has sent me to a orthopedic specialist and he told me I have a bit of arthritis in one knee more than the other. So PT it is he called it Core to bottom. Watching this video has completely acknowledged what I thought. I had worked out with a trainer when I was 36-40 and was in the best shape and continued with other exercises until this March of 2023 when I went to do yoga and my knees were in so much pain.

    I had a TKR January 2019 and did well but I over did that exercise #7 and also had a fall and ended up in pain just as before the surgery and have to use a cane all the time now. So thank you for warning others of the danger of overdoing this exercise.

    I've watched this video before & decided to see it again. I'm glad I did because it made me realize that the manner in which I get into bed either to go to sleep or if I have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night is probably this contraindicated stretching motion. Your information is a blessing. Sorry if my name icon comes up 2x. Some sort of computer glitch we don't know how to fix.

Thanks again - more than you know!!!!!!

  • @axelpool8776

    I was so excited when I saw this video after years of focusing on my quad excercises ever since I was diagnosed with bone on bone from an x-ray five years ago I've been managing the pain with icing hot, but Epsom baths and Tylenol but my liver enzymes I've got too high from the daily maximum dosage of Tylenol, so I was thrilled when I saw your because it gave me hope I did the glutes exercises and last night my knee pain was the worst it's ever been in five years kept me up all night. I hope you're not a quack, because that would be a horrible thing to give people with so much pain false hope.

    I was using this glute muscle technique durig my trip around Tatra Mountains. So 3000 meters up & 300 km with bags, tent and chondromalacia patella levl I/II xddd
    I came up with idea of using quad muscle myself but i find your videos full of good ideas. They are very helpful for me, next week I will try back to running using consciously more glutes during down & uphills.
    Also my therapist has similar ideas.
    Anyway thanks for help and recomendaciones, you explain it very clearly.

Im pushing 70 and feeling guilty that i wasn't doing most of the mentioned exercises and stretches. Especially pulling the leg back. I was frustrated that i lost being that limber. Hahahaha. Im a happy camper.

    Thank u so much for the video, it's an eye opener. I have rt knee osteoarthritis and complete cartilage damage due to Rheumatoid arthritis which I have since 15 yrs. My patella is dislocated upwards, every time I try to walk patella is displaced upward. But my quadriceps looks weak and also i am unable to extend my knee, i guess due to quadriceps weakness.
    What should I do, strengthen quads/ butts.
    I noticed i use but more than quads
