If you consistently work on strengthening your hips, glutes, ankles, and feet,
you’ll progress quickly to heal your knee injury. Remember to always listen
to your body and don’t move into pain.
Take these movements at your own speed. Focus on quality movements,
not quantity. When you feel like a particular movement is no longer
challenging to perform (roughly a 6 out of 10 on the difficulty scale),
consider adding in the progressions provided, but only one at a time.
Injuries can cause a change to your fitness routine, but the silver lining is
that with proper functional and mobility training, you’ll be stronger in the
long run.
