For overworked muscles, not a knee injury, the pain is usually coming from muscles that are over tight and pulling on the tendons in the knee. Watch this series to see how PT Squared addresses this imbalance!
Practicing these stretches help to relieve the tension build up first and can alleviate the pain. The next video helps to prevent over worked quads.
Activating the glutes is like asking the knee to do less work because the hips are stronger! Glutes are the largest muscle group of the body and help with most functional movements that the knee helps with. When glutes are strong, less is needed of the over worked quads.
After practicing your stretches and glute strengthening exercises
For those of you who sit at a desk all day or are overly tight in the front side of your shoulders and dealing with pain, this video series is for you!
First, we want to decrease the tightness in your shoulders by stretching the muscles that are commonly tight. These are your pecs, anterior deltoids, and rotator cuffs. This is going to help minimize the pain you're dealing with everyday!
After we spent time stretching and decreasing stiffness, we want to build up the supportive, posture muscles. These are the muscles around the back side of your shoulders that help to keep your posture in line!
To make sure we keep your shoulders strong and bulletproof, let's strengthen those rotator cuff muscles. These are 4 small muscles around your shoulder blade and humerus bone. These muscles are often weak and become stiff when not properly trained!
According to NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine), 80% of American adults experience low back pain at some point throughout their life. Many times, stretches to the hips can release the low back more than stretching the low back.
Strengthen the muscles to support your spine and hips. All of your core muscles work together to protect your spine and glute muscles help to control the hips. Try these exercises 30-60 seconds, 3-5 times a week.
Motion is Lotion but what happens when the motion is causing pain? Make sure when you are exercising, you keep proper and safe form!
The range of motion you choose to use now is the range of motion you get to use later on. Practice these mobility exercises daily. Your vertebra's mobility can increase after every stretch session.
Plantar Fasciitis is simply inflammation in the bottom of your foot. That's why it causes pain!! Spend time with these ankle stretches daily!
The second best thing to a massage is you giving your muscles the massage they need, aka self myofascia release. Break up the fascia in your feet, achilles, and calves to release the tightness and walk smoothly!
After you work on getting rid of the inflammation in the bottom of your feet, I know you don't want them coming back! Know how the feet and ankle move so we can strengthen the supporting muscles. Practice these to prevent weakness in your ankle joints!
Hips get used everyday while we walk, squat or are seated. They are the primary connector of over 15 muscles large and small that need to be stretched daily! Practice these stretches to your larger muscles and watch the next video for the smaller muscles.
Last video is great to reduce hip and low back tightness. This video with dive in a little deeper to those smaller muscles within the hip that need a little more attention. Practice these daily to help prevent limited movement and static pain.
Now that we've taken away extra tension, the next step is to strengthen hip muscles. Strengthening can cause tension but paired with the previous stretches will help prevent overworked muscles. The stronger your muscles are, the less likely they will become overworked!
