Knee Pain in Lifters: What You Need to Know | Ep 50

The Tommy Brideson Show

Show Notes

Knee pain is one of the most common issues lifters deal with. In today’s episode, I break down the key factors that often contribute, training volume, technique, and programming decisions and how to approach them with more intention.

For many, the pain is manageable enough to train through, but that doesn’t mean it should be ignored. Over time, symptoms can build up and eventually limit your ability to squat, lunge, or progress the way you want to.

This episode explores the role of range, control, and loading in key positions and how to build a program that your knees will actually benefit from over the long haul. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
