Should You Be Doing Squats and Lunges for Your Knee Pain?
Season 2 of Running to the Castle Podcast w/ Dr. Ali Marty
Episode 107 Squats and Lunges for Injury-Prone runDisney Runners Races
In this episode of Running to the Castle you’ll learn if squats and lunges are the best exercises for runners with knee injuries.
You’ll learn how to decide if you should be doing squats and lunges with the need for a thorough assessment considering pain levels, triggers, running schedules, and existing strength routines before starting any exercise program.
For most injury-prone runDisney runners I recommend getting personalized guidance from a physical therapist, cautioning against self-treatment based on online resources or limited advice from primary care physicians.
