This is super helpful. I have suffered from left knee pain from running / biking that is worst when my knee is fully extended/straightened. I think stretching everything around it will be my best path to healing...
As a newbie, when/how should I add this sort of exercise to my routine?
Rachel’s enthusiasm is always matched with helpful education. She and her vids are always helpful.
Very informative!
