The 3 Exercises You Should AVOID After Meniscus Injury Or Surgery

Struggling with a meniscus injury as a runner? Steering clear of certain exercises is crucial for a smooth recovery. In this video, I'll walk you through the movements that could be exacerbating your knee pain and swelling. First up, we tackle skater squats. While popular in many workout classes, the rotational movement can strain your meniscus. I'll show you how to modify this exercise to keep your pelvis forward and reduce twisting at the knee. Next, we dissect lunges. While they can be fantastic for strengthening, incorrect form can increase knee pressure. Learn how to maintain proper alignment and avoid deep lunging to protect your meniscus. Lastly, we discuss the yoga chair pose, which can compress the knee if not performed correctly. Discover how to adjust your stance to minimize strain on your meniscus. Incorporate these modifications into your recovery routine to protect your knee, reduce pain, and set the stage for a successful return to running. Remember, it's not just about what you do, but how you do it that counts in meniscus recovery. 👉Explore The Meniscus Program https://www.compedgeinstitute.com/p/r...
