Strengthening for IT Band Syndrome

Season 1 Episode 49 of Running to the Castle Podcast w/ Dr. Ali Marty

In this episode of Running to the Castle I’m discussing things to be careful and mindful of when you’re doing strength exercises when you have IT Band Syndrome.

Some things to mindful of are:

  • Overexerting glutes

  • Laying on a sore IT Band

  • Deep bending

  • Straightening a knee from a big knee bend

Hi! I’m Ali. I’ve been in the health and wellness space since graduating with a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree in 2012. I worked in the typical outpatient clinic with active men and women with orthopedic injuries (shin splints, Achilles tendonitis, muscle and ligament tears, knee pain, IT Band pain, plantar fasciitis, and hip and knee arthritis until 2018 at which point I started Mobile Physical Therapy in Las Vegas, Nevada. Over the past few years I’ve transitioned to helping women running runDisney races after they’ve had an injury and they want to finish strong and enjoy the rest of their runcation.
