Tendinitis is an overuse injury meaning there’s no quick fix or magical exercise to solve it… it requires daily maintenance built around loading your knees the right way, strengthening weak links in your body, and progressively increasing the amount of volume your knees can handle.

1. RDLs
2. Heel elevated squats

6 Balance & Control Drills for a Stronger Foundation 🏋️‍♂️
These aren’t just warm-ups — they’re posture, power, and body control all in one.
For every rep, keep a tall posture: ribs stacked over the pelvis, lower core engaged, shoulders back.
Breathe with the movement, stay relaxed, and let control—not tension—do the work.

1️⃣ Single Leg Knee Drive Hold w/ Vertical & Horizontal Pushes – 10 reps each
Teaches stability while the upper body moves independently, building lower-body stiffness and core engagement.

2️⃣ Lateral Lunge – 10 reps
Loads the hips laterally, improving change-of-direction ability and hip mobility while maintaining posture under movement.

3️⃣ Single Leg RDL Hold w/ Ball Transfers – 10 reps
Trains balance, even weight distribution through the foot, and anti-rotation control in the hips and core.

4️⃣ Single Leg RDL w/ Counter Movement Press into Knee Drive – 5 reps
Links hip hinging, overhead pressing, and knee drive in one smooth sequence for coordination and total-body stability.

5️⃣ Reverse Lunge w/ Torso Rotation into Knee Drive & Press – 5 reps
Challenges rotational stability, balance, and posture through a high-torque movement that demands precision.

6️⃣ Single Leg Decel Drops – 5 reps
Teaches quick force absorption with control, prepping your joints and muscles for more explosive training.

Train these with intention, not just effort.
Your strength starts with balance, and your balance starts with breath.
