Savanna Ashley - The FUEL Program

Descents don't create knee pain - they expose it

A lot of runners have no problemo handling the flats, and they can typically grunt uphill

It's the downhills when weak points show up.

It’s also not a sign of having 'bad knees' - it's just a capacity problem:
- Quads that can’t absorb force
- Tendons that can’t handle load
- Hips that can’t stabilize under fatigue

Soooooo amigos, stop trying to “stretch it out” or chalking it up to age and start building them instead.

In my athletes programs, exercises like this show up all the time to build range, capacity, and true resilience in and around the knees.

Have some spicy knees but don't quite know how to fit these exercises into a structure that makes sense?

Comment KNEES and I’ll send you my full 3-phase Knee Rebuild framework I use with clients to make downhill feel safe and way more fun 🏔️

Ditch the bands to get your first pull up 🤝🏼

Anti-fragility > avoidance

The dose is everything - that includes the weight you use, your range of motion, and the frequency.

I don't know about you, but I'd rather have tissues that are building up than breaking down, even if it means going slower 🛠

What questions do you have around lower back training?

Have you been afraid of hinges before but now feel more confident?

Hip mobility 💰

There's so many ways to train the abductors but finding ways to progressively challenge and load then at length is key to strength and resiliency that sticks 🧱

What if it was easy? 💭

Coaching is a conversation, not a performance

Guess not then 💁🏼‍♀️
