How to Train With Knee Pain (Part 2)

/ Knee

It’s time for another episode of STRONGER TV. Last week we went over how to adjust technique during your lifts to reduce knee pain. Make sure you check that one out if you haven’t already.

So in this video we talk about what I would consider some of the most important points that aren’t very well know. That is, how to adjust programming for people in knee pain.

In my opinion, these principles are the “magic” behind what allows athletes to continue training and also rehabilitate simultaneously. If you can master these elements, you’ll make a lot of athletes very happy and keep your own knees healthy if you currently are dealing with irritated knees.

In this episode we go over:

How do we alter the main lifts when in pain?
The psychology of athletes in pain
How to continue working towards your training goals while injured
How to add extra training volume to continue making progress when limited by pain
What movements need to be modified and which can be continued
Multiple training ideas to keep making progress while simultaneously getting out of pain
