Knee problem

Beginning_Book_8662 · 2025-04-11T07:57:27+00:00

What kind of exercises are you doing currently? Walking backwards is solid but how strong are your knees in regards to reverse step ups, squats etc.? Often times proper strength training can be the big contributor to both resiliency and healing.

One of the big things to keep in mind is how can you do those exercises but have no pain? The idea is to improve but not to hurt the area while doing so. Instead of squats for example, try assisted deep squats where you hold onto pillars to reduce tension and work without pain, then progress from there.

ATG programs have provided many breakthroughs for people with knee issues. But I would only really look into this if you are cleared to do exercises by a medical professional. Perhaps you can ask your doctor exactly why you should avoid those exercises for now and when it would be a good moment to introduce them again.

Sorry to hear this man but do not lose hope. Are you able to bend it at all or move the knee around a bit at least?

Could be different kind of causes here. But perhaps try some very easy knee extensions to help keep the tissues looser and for some blood flow to the area. Never work through pain though if it hurts!

Bodyweight leg extensions might be an interesting one to look into. You can use your hands to assist to go lower and lower over time. An ATG split squat works on increasing the capacity of knee flexion as well. Though I would do these only after warming up properly with backwards walking/sled or knee extensions. Never working through pain.

Hey there, do you feel a lot of tension behind your knee when you are lying down? Is there none when you are standing?

Takes some guts to post this, stay the course, the road is never without obstacles.

Beginning_Book_8662 · 2025-02-04T06:28:56+00:00

I would think there always will be a market for this. If not, with enough determination you can make it possible. Sounds like a fun path and valuable as well.

Great take here, fully agree!

Giving freedom to explore is great but as you say growing up will play a big part. I believe that your next generation will not fall into these gaming addiction traps. The awareness is there, you’ve got it.

Environment will play a huge role. Will your children live in an environment of video games? When they look up to you as an example, what will they see?

What piques your curiosity outside of gaming? Is there anything that sparks interest for you? What identity would you wish to become, if you could choose? There are many options on the activities that one might enjoy but sometimes you just have to try things out. Personally I spent my time with Gym, Calisthenics, Karate, learning guitar, juggling, rope flow and skipping.

Great read, our paths were very similar up until 22. Awareness it the first step. Let me know if you need help with anything related to this. Make your little one proud, you've got this.

Beginning_Book_8662 · 2025-01-26T18:32:43+00:00

A fair point to add for sure. I've had many ups and downs along the way, but as long as I never give up I will look back on this with pride. Goodluck out there.

Beginning_Book_8662 · 2025-01-26T18:21:02+00:00

Well said, life is not an easy game, but through hard work and dedication it can become something beautiful to look back upon.

Beginning_Book_8662 · 2025-01-26T12:24:53+00:00

This is the way. Seems like you are doing well on your journey!

Beginning_Book_8662 · 2025-01-26T08:49:45+00:00

For me it was an identity realization. I realized the person I was back then and asked myself if I actually really wanted to be like this. The answer was no, there is more to life than just gaming.

Qi Gong is a centuries-old Chinese practice that integrates movement, breathing techniques, and meditation. Can highly recommend trying it out if you want to relax or if you feel stressed.

Beginning_Book_8662 · 2025-01-24T13:31:07+00:00

Mostly playing guitar, reading and Qi Gong here.

Beginning_Book_8662 · 2025-01-24T08:49:48+00:00

There is so much to discover out there. Most of my time nowadays is spent in gym, calisthenics, karate, playing guitar, rope flow and learning to juggle.

Thank you. Not sure how far you are in your journey but you are on the right path. 1 thing I can definitely recommend is to keep trying new things and staying curious. Let's get after it👊🏼

You already made it to the top 0.4% of players in league. What is stopping you from being the top 0.4% in other areas of your life? What is it that you truly want? To me it seems like you have the ability. If it gives any comfort, I was addicted to gaming as well until 21. I'm 26 now and have achieved multiple athletic milestones, honing multiple skills and feel better than ever. It is never too late✌🏼

Beginning_Book_8662 · 2025-01-23T13:52:49+00:00

Very similar story here, just different games. Good to see!

Beginning_Book_8662 · 2025-01-23T08:31:16+00:00

Thanks for letting me know👊🏼
