    If I’ve learned ANYTHING is that most pain, injuries, and discomfort, basically anywhere in the legs or back is tied to the hip. After getting hurt and not understanding why for so long, now I understand the importance of the hips and making sure they have proper mobility and strength.

      You can’t make a blanket statement like that. Sometimes it does sometimes it doesn’t. The entire kinetic chain needs to move properly. Knee pain can be caused by all sorts of things from the lower back to the toes.

    TKEs are better balancing on 1 leg cueing foot hip/pelvic control though. You can superset with band pulling medially to facilitate hip external rotators.

    Ladies and gents I have the actual best answer to knee pain, as a person in this comment section called Nepzski rightfully said, ''knee pain comes from the knee having to bear the brunt of other joints having poor health''. I am a mixed martial artist, a peak strength heavyweight lifter, a freerunnner and gymnast, I have to know my shit when it comes to knees and elbows etc. So what you have to do is you have to do 3 warm up sets of 50-55-60 small upward jumps to 75% effort, when you land the second jump you pause on the landing for about half a second, this pause counts as your third rep. On the second and third set of jumps, you pause the landing every 4th jump. These 3 sets are how you activate all the stabilizer muscles and get your legs properly distributing load. Now even though your legs feel good, you still have to do all your normal squat warmups.

They try to efficiently look at movements then you hone in on the parts of the body that might be contributing to altered, maladaptive movements that could be contributing to pain patterns. Then you learn a multitude of treatments specifically for that dysfunction. For example, a person with a stiff hip could be treated with manual therapy techniques, belt/band-assisted traction, stretching, other modalities. My experience has been that every person believes their movement screen is the best and they are all right and wrong.

    I watch your vids every day. They are so insightful and helpful. You’ve helped me understand body mechanics and training that I would not have found elsewhere. Honestly sir. If you are referring to KneesOverToes I think he would agree with you that there are 3 parts of the body that you have to strengthen or find mobility toward being in your ankles/calfs, knees, and hips. He would not recommend more mobility for an area of the body that is not the main contributor unless it was strength in the lengthened stage of your muscles. A lot of what you say is an extremely sound core of how to get your body in the ability to versatile styles of training. In all 3 planes of motion as well. I just think KneesOverToes focuses on building mobility slowly to a point where you can add load but if you haven’t fixed your core foundation then you can’t progress to the main focus of strengthening in lengthened positions of the muscle. So I get why you focus on the “VMO” is not the main problem here.
    Idk if I read into that too much but I appreciate both of y’all’s teaching the highest out of what I found on CZcams. Nothing but respect.

    After getting in to the gym scene and intermittent fasting and really getting healthy for the last 2 years, I learned a lot about health. Let me give you all a great piece of advice. If you aren't looking to become a professional bodybuilder stop squatting hundreds of pounds. Stop leg pressing with full 45 lb weights on each side. Now if your dream is to become a professional bodybuilder than by all means do that. But if it isn't you're putting a lot more strain on your body than you need to or should and you're going to seriously regret it later in life.

      You probably have some patella femoral syndrome (runners knee) going on. I would watch more of these videos to understand what may be going on and get it under control.
      I had this issue for two years and just kept pushing through it (like an idiot) before I started researching how to fix and it's improved a ton in the last three months.
      Depending on how bad it is you may want to lay off most deep ROM quad exercises and figure out if the problem is related to you ankles or hips. Mine was my left hip. Way tighter than the right and extremely weak. So protocol to rehab for me is improving left hip mobility, abductor strengthening, and utilizing things like small ROM touchdown squats as well as single leg squats on an incline. Some sledding pulling is good too. Just gotta stay consistent and don't irritate it, if something hurts the knee then lay off and perform a version that doesn't hurt.

    I'm an Athlete, it's normal for us to focus on mobility, hip strengthening all that jazz.
    My knee pain is occuring on the top of the knee. I'm doing everything, ankle mobility, strengthening of all the small muscles. But it's still there.
    Could there be any other causes?

    I hope this can help some like it has helped me. I had left knee pain for years and couldn’t really squat without knee pain. The pain was felt above my knee in the patellar tendon. I stretched. Iced. Foam rolled etc. and nothing really helped
    long story short it was my left gluteal medius that was weak and I didn’t push my knees out when I squatted
    So I started doing clam shells and glute activation exercises and use a resistant band when doing squats to teach my body to push my knees outward. And the pain went almost completely away and I’ve went up in weight by 30 pounds

    I used it for my knee osteoarthritis. Is that ok?

    I disagree. Use a lighter resistance. TKE should be used to help activate your articularisgenu.
