If you’ve got pain just below the kneecap when running, jumping, squatting or training — this one’s for you.

This video shows how to start rehab! Take it slow and build into it.

Pain isn’t always damage — and complete rest usually isn’t the answer.

Load management and progressive strengthening are key

Struggling with pain on the outside of your hip? 👀

5 things sports therapists wish you knew 👇

1. Pain isn’t always the problem—it’s often a signal. Ignoring it won’t make it go away, it just delays real progress.

2. Rest alone isn’t recovery. The right kind of movement is usually what actually helps you heal.

3. Consistency beats intensity. Small, regular rehab work will take you further than going all-in once a week.

4. Your body works as a system. That knee pain? It might be coming from your hips or ankles.

5. Prevention is easier than rehab. Looking after your body now saves you from bigger setbacks later.

Take care of your body—it’s the only one you’ve got 💪
