Are your knees wobbling during squats or lunges?
There are many reasons this can happen: mobility restrictions, tension patterns, strength imbalances, coordination, or simply moving faster than you can control.
Try rebuilding the pattern step by step:
1️⃣ Release
- Use a foam roller on your inner thighs (adductors) and glutes
- Move slowly and breathe
- Reduce excess tension that may be pulling the knee inward
2️⃣ Restore Range
- Try 4-point adductor rockbacks
- Keep it controlled and exhale as you move into the stretch
3️⃣ Activate
- 90/90 clam with a band around thighs
- Keep your pelvis steady
- Focus on slow, controlled reps to strengthen your outer hips
4️⃣ Retrain
- Add a stick, dowel, or stable surface for support
- Slow the movement down.
- Exhale as you lower and engage your deep core
- Track your knees toward your big toes
This isn’t the only way to address knee collapse, but it’s a structured starting point to explore and see what improves your control.
