2 Bonus movements for Knee Strength! - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dypR54L9wXY.html

Yes, I'm 69 and I got arthritis in one of my knees. I did exercises and now little to no problem. Arthritis is not the end. Well done, mate.

I shot my self in the knees and still took damage. These exercises do not bulletproof your knees

Josh, After doing these exercises for just 2 days thus far, I'm already feeling less knee pain. Thank you so very much for helping me create a "stronger me"!! Had swelling and much discomfort....which is also subsiding.

Excellent. No BS. Clear instructions, no "look at my beautiful body". Just follow and nail the reps.

"find any areas of sensitivity or tenderness" okay found my whole leg

This dudes neighbors are like wtf?! “Honey come look! He’s at it again!”

My knees got so strong they won’t allow me to sit down or walk I have to fight them.

All I want is a serious comment talking about the results from doing these knee workouts 😑

We do many of these and a few diffrent ones in every training session in my football (soccer) team to prevent injuries and it has worked out great for us.

Sitting here with a runners knee thinking ...WHYYYYYYY didn’t I see this video before. Awesome!

Having done these years ago and then doing it again. This stuff truly works. Excellent video my dude. 👍

These exercises are fabulous for restoring knee (and lower leg) strength!! Great channel, thank you 💜 I say this as both an LMT and knee injury survivor.

If I was his neighbor, I would dedicate a channel whenever he is training and call it “this shit is happening again”

Man, you are a super motivating person. Not one like Im use to. Your calm, soft spoken and really centered. Plus you make everything feel really attainable.

This really helped me. I couldn't even do normal squats without any extra weight, or my knees would hurt real bad and constantly make popping sounds. Now before and in between sets I do these exercises, like each exercise for only 5 reps. All problems are gone. I can even do weighted squats & step outs now. Thanks so much! 💪🏻

Hey there! Just wanted to thank you for sharing these exercises! I've tried other exercises in the past that didn't work out for me. I've had knee problems for years. Though my doctor advised me to continue to work my quad muscles I still had problems. I kid you not, I did these exact exercises on your video and my knees felt a lot better from day 1, today is my 3rd day doing just these exercises and I'm loving them, my knees feel a lot better!

finally i can stop wearing bulletproof knee pads

Thank you for so many things, a short video with a short introduction aka not making a really long video for no reason, the longer version for free, and helping fixing one of the worst and weakest parts of the body So much appreciation for you man You deserve zero dislikes

That first exercise with the roller under the outside of the thigh is notorious for dislocating the knee if done below the mid thigh. The "muscle" there is actually an extremely strong and thick strip of connective tissue called the iliotibial band which tends to get very hard knots a few inches above the knee. Applying pressure to these knots should be left to professional hands. Rolling on them willy nilly can easily put your knee and leg out of action for many weeks or even months.

I’ve been looking for this for ages. Just got out of an injury. Thank you a lot. Am lucky I watched this before I need it. ❤️

i’m tryna get those megan thee stallion type of knees 🤪

I’m 52 and have been weight training for 39 years. I though I had bad knees getting worse. I incorporated a lot of the exercises seen in the video and two years later-- the have new knees! Deep squats, deep weighted goblet squats, the pancake, and step downs were miraculous for the knees!

Imagine the neighbor cross the street wake up look through the window and see this 2:30

Thanks for this video! Had meniscus and ACL surgery last year and have been looking for exercises like these to rebuild my confidence in my knee! Thank you so much for putting up this video!

I wish I had this video in 92, when I was 15 and tore meniscus and cartilage in my right knee playing basketball. I started favoring my good knee so much, I created an imbalance. (Only noticable by me, especially when squatting.) I didn't know how weak my knee had become until I became a personal trainer and learned about muscle imbalances. I could squat 500lbs in high school, but I did it with 1 1/2 legs. But I couldn't sit in a squat position anymore with no weight. After you begin to favor a body part, your others begin to compensate. Most people live their whole lives with muscular imbalances without ever knowing, but if you ever become balanced, it feels like you have a brand new body! I'm saving this in my RU-vid folder to utilize on myself. Thanks!

These are great! My knees have not been feeling the best as I jumped back into too heavy of squats + started with too high impact of conditioning rather than easing back into these things. I started doing knee circles today, and the calf raises a few weeks ago and they definitely feel like the right next steps. Going to also add in the peterson squat too. This is perfect, thanks!

0:49 foam roll, 1:14 poliquin step up, 2:00 single leg calf raise, 2:25 knee circles

I had severe knee damage from playing hockey. I have been doing these exercises and they have really helped. Thank you so much.

At the start you named both my knee problem and previous injury, you just earned a subbed because I really want to get rid of this issue.

I have to try these exercises. I was an adventurer once, until i took an arrow to my knee.

My knees are weak like that calebcity video, I need this video.

Came here after my knees almost collapsed doing the #Bussit challenge

I had problems with both my knees..one knee showed dislocation while the other had pain most of the times..your exercises have been a boon! Thank u very very much! One knee feels 100% good while the other is on the way to its recovery thanks again

Hi Josh! I signed up for your bulletproof knees program and it's been awesome. You should make a program for shoulder health too! Alot of us work full time iobs and spend alot of time hunched over a computer. Love the routines!

Skyrim city guards take note.

Great advice , I'm 53 and a railway worker walking on the track on the loose ballast I've started getting pain on the inside of my right knee Feels like a bad tooth ache ,I know it's down to wear and tear and a lack of proper exercise . I will slowly start trying these exercises and see where it leads me Thanks for the video Happy Christmas

I am grateful for this video. I injured my knees pretty bad years ago and once again recently. I’ve never actively did any knee (recovery) exercises or anything to strengthen them but I trust this will be my key and doorway to my continuing future as a rugby player. Thanks bro

Neighbors be like, whaaat is he doing this time...?

My knees were shot in my early fifties and I thought I'd never run again then, at 61, I started a job where I was walking around a care home all day. Within 4 months, I was able to run again. From my early forties, I had been desk bound. Stay away from any job that has you sat at a desk all day.

Recap: - Squats - Lunges 3 directions - Lunges w/dumbbells - Steps ups - Sitting stand up on one leg - Bulgarian split squat - Back bridge - Balance one foot - Tuch ground one foot - Jump forward and hold - Jump to side and hold - Passing one foot - Shooting one foot - Deep Squat streach - Butt kicks - Leg circles one foot - Clapping kicks - Side to side - Glute stretch - Lunge stretch

last one, other stretches, and swimming! Best low intenisty workout you can do for your body (swimming)!

I'm a long distance hiker with old knee injuries from my years in the Army. These exercise routines hopefully will help drastically with pain I experience in my elevation descents in mountainous or rocky hill terrain. Thanks for posting. 👍

I LOVE Football/Soccer. I have gotten back playing after a long hiatus and managed to play at least once a week for 2 months. Im getting depressed because my right knee is starting to give off pains that my left knee already has already been experiencing for years now. Thank you so much for sharing your experience, I hope this will work for me as well. 🙏

Great exercises. Just tried them out. It's like I can feel my joints strengthening. Thank you for the share!!

* IMPORTANT MESSAGE * DO NOT SHOOT YOURSELF IN THE KNEE! THESE EXCERISES DO NOT ACTUAL BULLETPROOF YOUR KNEES! I TRIED IT NOW I DONT HAVE A LEG

Wow. This is something I have been looking for. My knees, especially the right one, has been dodgy for the past few years. Even if I try to squat, dance or even walk down stairs it hurts. Cartilage sticking out, but doctors say nothing wrong. Thank you so much for sharing your video. This is going to help me. Maybe I can run for a bus. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

I used to have bullet proof knees. Then i took an arrow to the knee.

I added half squats, leg raises, and jumping rope exercises too. It helps. Not only bulletproofed knees, i have a fireproof knee s now

Neighbours in opposite house: "Tim, look! That guy's doing that thing again! "

Leg curls made my knees solid. I had ignored them for many years after getting on the Romanian Dead-lift functional training wagon. Y'know. Hip and knee flexion at the same time, etc. etc. RDLs have their value. But once I added leg curls back in.. well, between them and high-volume calf work, the biggest improvement was in how rock solid my knees felt on the ski slope just a few months later.

the foam roller was painful the first few times, and the rotation in my knee circles have increased my flexibility immensely. just need your guidance.

Please make sure you guys read this very clearly. I want to thank you so much bro, I struggled with inflamed knees for almost two years after an inward knee bend while playing basketball. These exercises really work...Even after I got cleared with xrays, MRI, and therapy, nothing really worked until I started incorporating some of these techniques...honestly I think the poliquin and single leg calf raise is really where I began to notice less of a fluid and inflamed feel in my knee. The other day I played multiple games of basketball (with a prayer lol) and I balled out without any pain...now all the fluid and inflammation is gone..

Some high level MMA fighters say you don't even need your meniscus, they've tore it so many times that they eventually just get it cut off instead of long painful rehabilitation, Yoel Romero Olympic medalist being the one that comes to mind first

your channel is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME. thank you for all your great work!

I'm a muay thai fighter and i tore my LCL almost two months ago now, the recovery was terrible and i thought that was it for me. I am currently without pain but I've not had a hard training session yet, I'm starting to try these techniques and hopefully I come back here to thank this man.

If had knee issues for awhile and these definitely help for sure

He ran so the “Buss it” girls can walk...

Good stuff, I really need something like this. I'm not even gonna rip on your top knot.

Will definitely be doing it for life...Just one set of it and it worked like magic...I am 53...I walk a lot and dance 🙂... God bless you

Thank you for sharing your experience. Your excercises and the way you perform is really motivating. May I ask, if you have had surgery on your torn meniscus or if you have any thoughts on that topic that you can share? Would be very curious about what you think about this topic. Thank you!

These gentle exercises are great for strengthening knees I don’t feel like he mentioned tho that ya gotta go really slow I mean I know he was going slow in the demonstration but still always keep that in mind when doing these . Also I would like to recommend this man use a pumice stone on the bottom of the feet

Great exercises. I do some of these. I am 60 now and having stability and tightness and injury issues (house painter), but exercises help tremendously. I'm interested to know what you eat. I eat vegan and my weight is in the right range.

Many thanks. Heading to your website now. My knees are mashed and need this rather than “squats” !

Thank you :) I need this. May you be well. May I be well. May everyone be well.

Wish me luck, getting into a gun fight tomorrow. Gotta protect myself with my knees. If not, ill surrender by doing knee circles infront of them

Everyone should at least consider this! I stopped doing this and after half an year not maintaining my knee strenght I tore my ACL bc of weak knees and slowly rehabilitating muscles around it. You should condition your knees for sports even if you are not "a professional athlete".

Just watching makes my knees feeling much better! Thank you for sharing! Lots of Love from Devon, UK. :-)

During the first set of the Peterson step up, I knew this was the type or exercise my knees have needed for years. Great video thank you !

I feel ya on the knee situation man...I injured my knees back in high school...2001...and had knee problems for YEARS...I started doing some of the exercises you showed on this video..as well as squats and dead lifts...not heavy weight...but focusing primarily on strength...so in the 4-6 or 6-8 repetition range...I can do all kinds of jumps...perform my running workouts like a madman...even leaping over things and landing hard...I'm a Martial Artist and these things are VERY necessary...thank you for emphasizing these exercises...and I will DEFINITELY try out your foam roller exercises...thank you

Foam rolling is underrated, I did it every day and my knees were getting much better, I think everyone should do it to keep their muscles healthy

I tore my ACL, Lateral Meniscus, and Patella last October, great vid 😄

This is a great video for those people with preexisting knee problems or those coming off recent knee injuries. As many channels dive right into squats/lunges etc. to strengthen knees. The advice given here will make your knees better prepared to deal with leg exercise targeting this area. Well done and represents the change in modern fitness to more health focused and less about how it makes you look.

man I’m 18 and had need surgery sucks to be so young and having to watch this video but thank you so much my man I really hope this works for me 🙏

Ok RU-vid! I watched it. Thanks for caring for my knees.

Also very important: stretching... not only for your knees but for your hips also. Shortened tendens do result in higher wear of the joints..

Wow! Amazing! Your tube is changing people's lives. I subscribe to your youtube just yesterday. The stretches, their benefits, and the way you demo are all in harmony. Thank you!

Ima have to do those circular knees exercises at the house. Don’t wanna send the wrong message at the gym. Don’t want the boys thinking I’m bringing milkshakes🥛 to the yard. I LIKE WOMEN! 😂

Such an inspiration dude! How did you tear your meniscus again?

Oh reminds me of all the exercises and sports I could do before reaching 50. I so good to be young and fit.

Thank you for these videos 🙏🏼 I tore my meniscus and this already helping 🙏🏼

I couldn't help but laugh at the knee circle. All I could think about was spongebob saying "bRinG iT aRoUnD tOwN"! Lmaooooo. On a lighter note, thank you for the information!

Holy c**p, just what I've been looking for and haven't been able to find anywhere. Thank you!

I can't do what you do (little old lady) but your videos are so well-explained that it's easy to figure out a way to get the effect. Sometimes even from a sitting position! Thank you! I have yet to come up with a joint injury or issue that isn't quickly resolved by 3 things - castor oil on the joint, rebounding for 2 minutes to get me rock solid on my bad feet (which always amazes me) followed by my old-lady version of whatever exercise you've taught for the issue. THANK you!

I'll try it!! Thanks a lot for sharing! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Fun fact : Tony Stark uses his knee cap to make the shield he gave to Cap

Very good exercises! Have had knee surgery a couple of times and these are exactly the type of rehab exercises that got me back on track, body weight, slowly increasing range of motion etc. 👊🏻

Thank you! I’m a skater and I always fall on my knees and they get injured so quickly. This helped my knees get stronger and don’t get injured as much!!!

I’m hopeful to do these exercises and be healthy again in the future. Doctor told me I only have one good ligament remaining right now, just had an osteotomy and meniscus repair. ACL, LCL, and PLC reconstructions coming in the summer and I’m only 18. Don’t neglect your knees people, this sucks

I literally just have to bend my knees gently and they crack over and over again. Like the nitrogen gases just keep on restoring

Knee circles could be very dangerous if you have tight leg, ankle & hip. I have shortened muscles & I have to avoid movements like this. Proper exercises with slow strength progression, and hip & ankle mobility improvements help a lot. The knee has about 5° lateral mobility. Knee circles could damage the meniscus

I had a partial menisctomy and I removed a part of my medial meniscus I hope this will help me and help me strengthen my legs

This genuinely helped so much I thought it was just another video trying to sell a program thanks so much there needs to be more folks like you 😁

When I stand up after squatting my left knee makes a sound like I'm cracking my knuckles. No pain. Just kind of hilarious

lol i just messed up my knee yesterday, sparring and this pops up in my reccomended. Someone is watching me???

Nice video, all the stuff on this channel's great for staying loose and mobile bouncy 🤘

When i’m recovered from surgery this is what i’m starting with!

Thank you for getting straight to the workout. Much appreciated brother.

*"I used to be an adventurer like you then i took an arrow in the knee"*

Thank you
