@@mbappelafraude I'm at the second stage doing squats and Bulgarian squats as well as other exercises to increase load. Some advice if you're injured avoiding fall damage will help recovery immensely. I found sled sprints and bunny hops effective because I could still run and jump but the amount of force when I hit the ground was less.
@@skullknight4134 If your still getting the same injury it probably means your exceeding the load on your knees in whatever exercise your doing. let it rest to lower inflammation. if it's still hurts it's not the thing I had. You shouldn't be overdoing it, you want to lower the amount of stress on your knees. use the exercises in the video to build up your load tolerance. Absolutely don't push yourself, you will increase inflammation. It's slow but eventually your knees will be strong enough to handle the load from sports or whatever.
I'm 19 year old from Nigeria training for track and field and I have been suffering for patella tendonitis on my right leg and quad tendonitis on my left leg ( plus a sharp pain at the front of my right ankle) for over a year now. All this was because I tried lifting very heavy and doing high-volume plyometrics (no coach) My thought moving forward was to give up on my athletic dreams, and this set me into a state of depression for a long time. That was until I came across this channel, and started implementing what I learnt. I've been seeing slow but constant improvements ever since. In a nutshell, I just want to say a big THANK YOU to squat university for giving me hope and bringing me out of my dark times. God bless🌹
Tendinitis does not heal with rest only with an overload of 2 to 5 reps per set of 10 to 20 sets every 3rd day for 2 weeks. So this vid is spot on. Do not rest you will just come back and be in pain again
I think this is exactly my issue. I was using Ben’s knees over toes program last year, but that step down move you showed in the squat rack here made my knee really really bad. I should have stopped when it got painful but I thought I was gonna work my way through it. Frustrating because I see everyone else saying that that move is what made them better. It absolutely destroyed my knee.
@@samross8060 Hope so man. Basketball season almost here. I had to stop playing completely last summer in late June cuz it got so bad. Hoping it’s not gonna be as much of an issue this year. I pretty much stopped running and working my legs at all since last summer just to give the knee a long break. Just recently started getting back to it. Light workouts. Basically doing knees over toes zero program again. Minus that one move lol. Hopeful I’m not gonna spend another summer feeling old and decrepit haha 😂
@@brodyallard9011 Good. Those issues from the step up totally gone now. Back to working out normally. Haven’t gotten back on a program but eventually I will do it again.
Thank you so much, SU. Knee tendinopathy has caused me a great deal of anguish these past two years. I really appreciate all of the content uploads on the subject
because giving good advice is not easy, i would say that most people (9 out of 10) of people you will encounter and hear advice from in this life, are wrong advices that only worked for them or other people and it will not work for you because its not personalized adviced or scientifically proven 😊
I got scammed by a physical therapist over this. Bro made me pay 4000 dollars, told me I had a bone disease and had me stretching my hamstrings and walking on a treadmill. Bro didn’t even know both of my knees hurt and not just the left one (I dont even know how bro came tot hat conclusion) after halfway through
Yup, I just yesterday did box jumps with no warm up for legs and for the first time in my life I learned why coaches warn about plyometrics. And now I see this. Aaron's teachings haven't gone to waste though. Deep long pause squat with overhead weight and single-leg touchdown squat allowed me to do my pr squat workout without issues, even though after box jumps I felt like I might not be able to do even normal load.
Learning how to land is also essential to prevent wear on your knees. When you increasing the time of landing by bending your knees on impact, you are decreasing the force due to delta p / by delta t= force. Notice how he is not bending his knees not nearly enough when his feet land and he is still as stiff as a board. Physics is the main factor to this problem.
Just now experiencing a more intense injury/pain from this after a game of basketball. Has me feeling like I won’t be my old self anymore. I hope this helps
Since 1 year i have pain on my left knee. İ am playing football 1-2 times per week. After making this spanish squats my left glute extremely sore. now i am thinking because of weak glute, it puts more pressure on my knee.
This is such a shit annoying injury, have had it for 3 to 4 years now and just worked through it. Finally started to research it as going up and down stairs became unbearable, just read your blog fingers crossed I get this fixed now!
i mean maybe im wrong but this seems straightforward, he literally is just not bending his knees when he lands so obviously hes gonna ruin them because hes just making the bones hit eachother. If im wrong feel free to tell me why 👍
My physical therapist had me do single leg decline squats. She said that that band thing is static, so it does not do the necessasy work. I did do them in the first week after injury before seeing a physical therapist though, and I am considering doing them before each session of my sport
Every movement here is one that I would feel pain in (specifically my right knee on the inside - left half - of the patella tendon). Am I just supposed to push through it and hope the extra strength fixes it?
what would be the time suggestions for each step. How much time should I stay on step 1 and the rest? I have jumpers knee and a bit of arthritis on the right side. No one seems to be able to help. I have already spent too much money on physio and just wanna try something new.
Hey man, just wanted to ask. Why did you put tendonitis at the video description? I was told by my teacher that patellar tendinopathy wasn’t an imflammatoire reaction in the knee, but a disbalance between load and capability.
I don’t have the band so I have always held onto a counter top or something and like teased my way down into the potions making sure my tendon is taking load but only as much as it’s capable
I have this bad and I was just messing around pretending like I could dunk in my house 😂 I’m so glad there is hope cause me knee has been hurting for a week now
I straight up cant load with bulgarians, the balance is complete ass and I get nothing out of it, right now im trying to load leg press before i move to squats
Im a 16yr kicker on my Highschool football team. After kicking for a while, the soft part in front of my knee gets extremely swollen and locking out my knee hurts. What can I do to fix/prevent this?
Bruh straight up recovering from this right now and this is what I'm doing feels good to have reassurance👍

Yo I’m in exactly the same boat man. My left knee is perfect with it but my right knee has gotten so much worse with it.
We’ll get through it boss

@@matijamarkovic8101 Yeah my knees crack when I squat down. It doesn’t hurt tho and I’m not sure if cracking means anything.
How’s ur knees now

Any improvements?
When I was younger and needed that all my PT said was to stretch my quads smh
So many PTs are quacks, even to this day
You also require that

Its natures way of telling you you didnt do it right, but we can tell nature "allright, I got the message, lets carry on"

Hey! How are you Today?
I need you in my life !
@squatUniversity how often should these exercises be completed? Are they daily exercises?
Thanks so much for the awesome content!

I currently have this and my parents always say its growing pain ty
istg that's what a doctor told me last time, makes me wanna kill em now
Btw are u okay rn ?
Thank you 😊
You’re the goat
This guy has some insane vertical jump
Work on more depth drops
Wish I had known this years ago, but now I'm lined up for the surgery for it because everything I did failed.
Thanks for the info 👍
Every movement here is one that I would feel pain in (specifically my right knee on the inside - left half - of the patella tendon). Am I just supposed to push through it and hope the extra strength fixes it?
OH HE TRYNA KILL US 😂
Shots fired!
what would be the time suggestions for each step. How much time should I stay on step 1 and the rest? I have jumpers knee and a bit of arthritis on the right side. No one seems to be able to help. I have already spent too much money on physio and just wanna try something new.
Love this.. but what about after surgery for Patellar tendon on both and it’s almost been two year of physic rehab ?
Hey man, just wanted to ask. Why did you put tendonitis at the video description? I was told by my teacher that patellar tendinopathy wasn’t an imflammatoire reaction in the knee, but a disbalance between load and capability.
Please one short on lateral pelvic tilt 😢
I don’t have the band so I have always held onto a counter top or something and like teased my way down into the potions making sure my tendon is taking load but only as much as it’s capable
How long should we take to be progressing through the steps? Start loading squats right after? Or just once you’re pain free from step 1?
I want to know too!
Jumping off of tanks became sliding off of tanks after a few months of working on them. I dont miss it at all 😂
1 mil subs 🎉🎉
how about achilles tendonitis?
I have this bad and I was just messing around pretending like I could dunk in my house 😂 I’m so glad there is hope cause me knee has been hurting for a week now
I can’t deal with this long ass recovery I did what I needed to get rid of it and it came back right away.
What the name of the song
Can u go over osgood schlatters
Can I subsitute the Spanish squat with wall sits?
Also, don't land on your foot, flat. Bend those knees and slowly go from the balls of your feet to the ankle
I straight up cant load with bulgarians, the balance is complete ass and I get nothing out of it, right now im trying to load leg press before i move to squats
Is this aproach used for Osgood Schllater too?
how often should i do this a week?
Hey sir, i have a doubt. Just how long do I go for in the first stage? And if I don’t have these bands, what else can I do for this?
How many weeks/days should the Isometrics part last before moving on to the slow resistance work?
Could you do Achilles Tendinopathy as well?
He did long ago
Its the same recipe. Loaded isometrics first, followed by regular slow movements through full range of motion.
Is there an alternative if I don't have the band and somewhere to attach it to? Thanks in advance.
Yes... get a band online (>$15) then go to your local park and use their jungle gym.
How long on isometric before I add stage 2?
I am so excited about the staring song name ease anybody else who this song 😢😢
What is another way to do the plyoneteics
I literally took a year out the gym for my knees to heal, but they still didn't.
Yeah, because they need ACTIVE rehab not rest.
Golden
That 1st dude almost got a haircut. 😮
Do I do the plyometrics stuff after week 6 or all in the same day?
Anyone know that the song is in the first clip?
What about platellar maltraction? I need help brother
Can I do a wall sit if don't have resistance bands?
How much resistance should the bands have? Does it matter?
It doesn't matter (actually the literature doesn't go into the depth of studying the elasticity of the band - as far as I can remember).
should I squat as deep as I can in this pos or like the video?
Okay but doing this will allow me to jump pain free? I’m not even in my mid 20’s yet :(
Why slow?
Its popping out in that position
How should we land when jumps like that?
Vertical jumping: by bending the knees as deeply as it is needed to absorb/reduce the impact... look at parkour jumping tutorials for more info
Also look up "female adolescent ACL" if you like.
“/gamerule falldamage false”
My doctor told me to STOP doing squats and lunges x.x This video says to do them x.x
I cured this but now i have tendonitis above my knee lol
Then its not tendonitis
@@mikkelrolsson It is, something called quad tear but same as tendonitis bellow, now its all good
@@mikkelrolsson it is quad tendonitis then
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Bro get from underneath that fan
Fr i cant even jump for 4 motnh
Im a 16yr kicker on my Highschool football team. After kicking for a while, the soft part in front of my knee gets extremely swollen and locking out my knee hurts. What can I do to fix/prevent this?
what about pistol squats
Oh shit jumping recovery. And Spanish squat isometric wtf exercise
You're genius🤍💛💛💙💙💕💕💗
Where can I get the band in the video?
Is it normal to feel pretty bad pain/discomfort whilst doing this I honestly feel more pain afterwards for days 😢😢😢
