Knee Pain? Read This

Instead of skipping leg day..
Try bodyweight iso lunges—they might be exactly what you need.
Here’s why they’re a game-changer:
✅ Strengthens stabilizing muscles
Holding the lunge position helps build strength in your quads, glutes, and hamstrings without putting excess strain on your knees.
✅ Improves knee stability
Holding the position forces your knee to stabilize, helping reduce wobbling and discomfort.
✅ Increases time under tension
More muscle activation = better strength and endurance over time.
✅ Low impact, high reward
Perfect if heavy squats aggravate your knees but you still want to build lower body strength.
Try adding 30-60 second holds per leg before or after your main workout. You might be surprised how much stronger and more stable your legs feel
