- - A quick, very effective yoga workout for strengthening your knees. Build muscle and improve mobility in your thighs, hips, glutes and core. Great for athletes to incorporate into their injury prevention routine or for beginners looking to improve their fitness performance. Use it when you don’t have much time for an incredibly effective workout to get your legs and your core burning!

This yoga workout incorporates body weight exercises and calisthenics, which allows you to get maximum results in less time. It doesn’t use any equipment, so you can do it anywhere.

That right training includes flexibility, core strength, balance, and mobility work. None of these strengths just “happen”. Your body doesn’t lie, doesn’t take excuses, and gives you exactly what you put it into it. 

Strengthening your knees is a great way to improve athletic performance, prevent injuries, and/or rehab an older injury. Improving your mobility speeds up your recovery and increases your range of motion, which allows you to add on more muscle in less time. 

A great way to get stronger is by improving your technique. While you’re doing these postures, listen to your body and try to gain an understanding of which muscles are firing and which muscles are more difficult for you to engage. 

If you sit at a desk all day, chances are some of your muscles will struggle to activate during your workouts. This is normal and completely fixable. Identifying and fixing your activation issues can drastically improve your fitness level and prevent injuries. 

It wasn’t until yoga and developing a genuine interest in how the body worked that I learned knee problems were more often related to a lack of strength or mobility in the hips and ankles, and had little (if anything) to do with the knee joint itself.  I realized the body was interconnected, and that injury in one area of the body was usually being caused by weakness or muscular imbalances in another part of the body. If I had known this back when I was 16, I would have changed my training significantly.

If you’d like to learn more about how yoga can help with strength and mobility, I have a full blog post which goes into more detail on my site below
