Fix Your Knees: Heal, Lengthen, Strengthen
<p>Not medical advice, just real-world coaching that works. In this episode, Karl breaks down knee rehab and joint health in plain English: why the knee is a hinge that’s governed by the ankle and hip, and how to rebuild with short, consistent sessions. </p><p>You’ll learn the four training fundamentals (progressive overload, full range of motion, time under tension, no pain) and how to use regressions/progressions to keep moving forward safely. </p><p><br></p><p>We cover the “Heal → Lengthen → Strengthen” framework (think: high-rep calf raises, controlled hamstring work, TKEs, isometrics), smart frequency (10–15 mins most days), and everyday habits like single-leg balance while brushing your teeth.
