Knee pain is the most common running injury. It results from the forces on the knee exceeding the tissues ability to tolerate stress. It is associated with training errors- doing too much, too soon- as well as limitations in strength and coordination of the hip and knee. In this article, I will highlight assessing and treating your knees to get you back on the right track.
Running with Functional Feet
The foot is the base of support for our body’s in upright positions and activities.
If the foot’s alignment is off then it can lead to compensations at the ankle, knee and hip. The compensations lead to stress. If we overload those compensations with too much running or lifting the outcome may be pain.
