Here are a few ways to sneak some rotation into your training to help prevent some of that knee pain we see plaguing some of you.
Remember: rotation is how your body creates stability in motion. Your body will solve the problem of missing rotational capacity, but it will come at some cost. Like failure to take down the mammoth and the clan going hungry.
Give these a shot and let us know how it goes in the comments below.

Yeah, rotation, what a game changer. I'm not the most read mover out there (though that's changing) but why haven't I heard anyone else talking about this perhaps most KEY pattern the way you are? Thank you.

Great video Kelly. Do you have any tips on how to strengthen the wrists?

I don’t have rotational issues in my left or right knee. However, I think I have some deficits with my WeeKnee

4:06 if you stand in front of me trying to do this you'll probably get shot in the eye with my knee cap.

Again, this shouldn’t me contraindicated for a18-20 month-out, reconstructed ACL with a médial meniscus tear correction as well? The goal is to gain more active flexion in the affected knee! Thanks!

Hey man is there any video on your channel about medial knee pain? I have pain on both knees. What i know is that the joint itself okay. The pain is located around the area where the vastus medialis attaches on the suprapatellar. Sometimes the muscle itself hurts as well. The pain is very sharp and pointy. It hurts even when i do squat without any wheigt and when i do leg extension also without wheigt. And i noticed when i train my abductor (e.g. with bands: squating with resistance bands around my knees and pushing my knees out and holding it for 2-3s on lowest position), my knee doesn't hurt anymore for a few hours and even during my workout. But the next day the pain comes back.

So Kelly always recommends looking “upstream and downstream” of the problem area. Judging by how it’s sensitive to the touch and how the pain seems to dissipate when training your abductors it’s likely that you have some overactive adductors and some under active abductors. I would start with foam rolling the affected side adductors as well as some hip extension to put less stress on your adductors. Combine that with strengthening the abductors (as you were doing) and the glute medius. Some of his mobilizations that would benefit you most would likely be 1) the couch stretch, and 2) the suprapatellar smash. So the strategy would be to relax and lengthen the adductors and then strengthen the abductors and glute medius. (I prbly should have started out saying this but I’m a corrective exercise specialist and have spent countless hours studying Kelly’s work) Hope this helped

@@dylankniska6871 Thank you very much for your detailed answer and your effort. You're right about the adductor. I noticed that the inside of my legs are very firm. I noticed this especially in the squat because my adductor wins the upper hand and my knees collapse inwards. So far I have avoided stretching exercises for the adductor because they are very uncomfortable to do. For example, I can't even do a reasonably good split. My inner tigh is so under tension that it feels like my tendon will rip of when doing streches. I will take your tips to heart and in addition to the abductor exercises (glute medius etc.) also stretch the adductors. Thanks again for your detailed help.

And voodoo floss those knees, I had similar pain that was finally resolved by consistent voodoo flossing during squat warmup
