If pain around knees or shoulder, do gradual strengthening of muscles around all the tendons. Not heavyweights, not jerking. When your muscles easily stretch and are stronger, the tendons are less likely to tear. Helps to do gradual full range for shoulder, hips, etc just like for fingers and feet.

Anyone still having trouble with the duck walk 1 stretching your hip flexors will help loosen your hips that may be stiff and do squats , calf raises , do core muscle exercises and your back muscles and always stretch does not matter your age it will help 😉

Yes me! I just had a knee injury had a broken tibia plateau with a meniscus tear. So it is difficult for me still

Hey I failed the duck walk and they told me to go to the doctor to see if my joints are alright and everything was good but my recruiter stopped contacting me ever since can I still go back?

@kickinitwithkami6477 3 года назад

You can go back but you will have to bring all of your medical records. Find a different recruiter once you get clearance from your doctor.
