If you suffer from knee pain the first two minutes of this short snippet by physical therapist Chantal Donnelly from her 30 minute training video, Strong Knees, by Gaiam, a trusted resource for wellness products, may just explain what you need to know to relieve it with simple exercises. One key? Focus on your gluteus maxiumus muscles – the big muscles of your butt – to strengthen your hamstrings. Your glutes extend and externally rotate your hip. If your glutes are weak, they weaken the hamstrings in the back of your legs, and weak hamstrings can lead to knee pain. Watch – and perform! – these two exercises to get you started. Her full program gives you a balanced strengthening and stretching routine that targets all the muscles to strengthen and protect your knees against undue stress and strain.
