This is my mother and she is getting ready to go for her first ironman event but she had been concerned about the health of her achilles. Here we break it down and take a deep dive at what could be going on. Is it just nervousness or is there a injury waiting to happen.
These are 2 of my most favourite exercises to give to my athletes
When dealing with knee pain or knee tracking concerns. These 2 exercises are amazing.
Firstly you have the Bulgarian split squat. A fantastic movement for strengthening the alignment for the hips, knee and ankle. It is also one the of the best exercises to help build that tear drop muscle called the VMO. It is hugely involved in knee tracking correctly.
Secondly, you have general shin strengthening. Sure you're building up the quads and calves. However, you could have been missing the front of the knee. The shin musculature is used as a almost suspension area taking load off of the knees. Try them out.
