Thank you so very much for this video. It’s transformed my life. I’m 73 and, after living for 40y in a single storey home, recently moved 300+ miles away to a new 2 storey home to be close to kids/grandkids. Of course I messed my knee up. Exercises from my Physio helped by strengthening knee/hip but I realised that I was going up the stairs with the weight on the ball of my foot. So your way of going up stairs by moving weight towards the heel has taken away pain and knee joint ’cracking’. It’s amazingly effective. Thanks again. Wonderful. 👍
Ohmigod...l never thought of going backwards...lv been walking sideways fown the stairs for a long time now due to osteoarthritis and have real trouble walking up them too my muscles are so weak now...l don't want to be like this so lm going to put all you've suggested into practice starting from now...l have to be honest and admit l hate exercise but if this is going to help me and my body then lv got everything to gain...thankyou for taking the trouble to explain and helping people..
I've been exercising for decades and realized long ago that to be consistent it needs to become part of your actual lifestyle and not a side event. For me it must be early morning before doing ANYTHING else..no coffee, teeth brushing, shower, walking the dog, etc before my workout. If I fall off the exercise wagon my body doesn't feel right and I get right back at it because it's part of my lifestyle. Over the decades I realized that afternoon and evening exercise won't consistently work for me. I need to do it 1st thing in the morning so done and out of my head. I also can't do public gyms so trainers at my former employer helped me as consults to build a comprehesive home gym over time. Mid 60's and I'm still 112 lbs with athletic slim build same as HS 🤗
Love this channel! I've been exercising almost every day since age 12 and adjusting my focus throughout the decades with mix of aerobic/weight training/stretch. Teens were pom pom team & random whatever active HS stuff, 20's mostly aerobics, 30's mostly muscle weight training & functional aerobics, 40's mostly aerobics & added weight stretches, 50's mostly added weight aerobics, 60's whatever the heck I feel like doing. I no longer have an employer fitness specialist to consult so this channel is gold for me 🥰
Putting your legs up against a wall for 20 minutes a day helps all sorts of ailments, water retention, arthritis and just about everyone can do it. If you can't get on the floor do it on your bed using your headboard.
I just went outside on my porch steps to practice what you said. It felt great. I had surgery on my knee in 2021. I will continue to use your instructions. Thanks so much.
I had hip replacement in March 2023 and this exercise is part of my therapy. Going downstairs isn't a problem for me but going up I'm still working on. This exercise is not just for knee pain ppl. I'll share this video to a friend who has knee pain and sounds like a dying animal when she gets up from a sitting position or going upstairs 😁👍🏾.
This is great if the depth of the step provides you with enough space to put your entire foot flat but not all stairs do that as a matter of fact most don't.
God bless u you men, you made my life very comfortable since I have 18 stairs up to my rooms and thanks buddy, God give long and healthy life , In Shaa Allah Amin!
How do you do this on home stairs? I only wear size 8 shoes and the steps are too small to plant my heel going upstairs. Are the steps you are using in an office or medical location?
I went hiking up Machu Picchu mountain and while going up I suddenly started to feel a very sharp pain in my left knee. I have never had knee pain before, but walking up this mountain for over an hour seemed to have put a lot of stress on my knee. When I reached the top my knee was in complete agony and walking around Machu Picchu was an painful experience rather than an enjoyable one because I had to sit every 10 mins. After watching this video, I remember I was walking up just like how I shouldn't go up. Using my knees to do all the climbing.
Hell Tyler! Your exercises really make me doing exercises! I don’t like going to the gym so this home training is just great! Thanks very much, you are a joy to look at!!👍
I would love love to do this but I have Charcot foot besides needing both knee replacements I love what you are doing, more of chair and lying down please
Ok l tried walking up the stairs backward but it wasn't working for me because l could not lift my foot high enough to put my heel down...l could just about get my toes on the step and felt very unbalanced so l had to abandon that excercise...
I actually go down the stairs sideways. I have osteoarthritis in my knees. I'm not supposed to do squats or lunges. However I can do a shallow Squat and maybe add weights and I can do a side lunge
Anyone who has undegone patella surgery in which patella undersurface is abnormal. Since two years struggling hard to go especially downstairs with railing and wall support. Going to the gym also. How to manage?
I had a bad fall knee cap felt as if lower knee bone came up through the top of my knee one year ago and I am still in pain Dr say's it's arthritis won't even consider having ultrasound as x-ray showed nothing I HAD no problems before the fall they use my age against me not listening to fact i played tennis And badminton before also swimming 3 time's a week please help me.
My feet are longer than the step is long. I go sideways up n down. If I’m in a hurry… the heal just hangs over step. I mostly us the elevator except when it breaks down every few months!
I am a senior women who can't climb up and down the stairs. I have to hold on to the railing and force myself self up with right foot always. So I climb up with only right foot. Help!!
I am sorry, I did not understand the getting down the stairs well, you mean to say, while getting down, with the back support, the heel or the toe to be placed first, it's bit confusing, could some explain if they understood please 🙏
I see in your next video you're doing lunges. I have arthritis in my knees so I'm not supposed to do lunges. Do you suppose I could do deadlifts instead?
Hii I am a physical therapy student, so basically in all exercise ,you are trying not to give eccentric load to quadriceps since km pfps or OA both has poor quadriceps strength!!! Right? And, instead you are try to give solution in a way to component movements hamstring muscles? Right?

I would like to know the movements for winding stairs. the stairs have about five steps that are angled and find my leg twists.
Best wishes. Ive been walking down stairs backwards and sideways for a few years. Great advice in this video.
LEO Y Yazmin.❤❤
After 5 videos, this is the first one that goes into actually helpful mechanics of the movement

Such great instruction. Shared it with my brother. My body is screaming for WeShape.
I go down the stairs sometimes sideways one step at a time
I really need this, they did not teach this in my recovery therapy. I'll most definitely be trying this immediately, beginning now.
Thanks Coach Tyler

Love this video, first video I’ve ever seen for teaching how to going up and down stairs without pain. Well done, it really helps ❤
Yes this is so useful, esp moving at the hip and putting more weight on the heel. Thank you.
I just went outside on my porch steps to practice what you said. It felt great. I had surgery on my knee in 2021. I will continue to use your instructions. Thanks so much.

Coming up the stairs this morning just hear a pop behind my knee and so much pain cNt walk without feeling pain
I actually go down the stairs sideways. I have osteoarthritis in my knees. I'm not supposed to do squats or lunges. However I can do a shallow Squat and maybe add weights and I can do a side lunge
That works if the stairs are wide enough to place your whole foot on them....The trouble comes when the stairs are shallow....
Try sideway
the pain is felt not in the stepping-out knee. It is in the joint of the hind leg that bends!
When I travel...the steps are often very high.I fing it easier to hold and get down backwards.
Super as always
If can I do able To go down with.......backholding The escalator by holding The escalator by holding on To The hansrail, slowly stepping
back down.

my knees make noises when I go upstairs I'll try this to see if it helps.
I’ve been in pt for 4 months and still can’t walk down the stairs. I’m going to try going upstairs backwards.
I did that when I had a knee injury, going backwards. And people laughed at me, later when they tried it in times of need they forgot to thank me
I hav knee gap won't be able to walk on stairs plz suggest how to improve
I am a senior women who can't climb up and down the stairs. I have to hold on to the railing and force myself self up with right foot always. So I climb up with only right foot. Help!!

Please, give us a HINT for not having a KNEE PAIN AT ALL. As I
have to walk a long distance daily.
I am 63 years old remains always knee pain in my left leg can i do walking daily for half hour kindly reply
I see in your next video you're doing lunges. I have arthritis in my knees so I'm not supposed to do lunges. Do you suppose I could do deadlifts instead?
LEO Y Yazmin.❤❤
Good
For going up n down we need to keep entire foot on stair n put pressure on heal m i right??
Hii
I am a physical therapy student, so basically in all exercise ,you are trying not to give eccentric load to quadriceps since km pfps or OA both has poor quadriceps strength!!! Right? And, instead you are try to give solution in a way to component movements hamstring muscles? Right?
Never mentioned to hold on to railing if necessary????
In India steps are very small half feet wide or more height 10 inches
