How are your knees?
Many of my clients over the years have had knee issues, at some point in your workout career or general daily life we will most likely experience knee pain. Often an exercise mat, even folding it in half, doesn’t give them the support they need.
Bang it on a table, too much running, health issues, skiing accident….
Many things can bring knee pain and many times once you have it, it tends to stick around.
One of my clients showed me an article from Sunday’s paper (Chicago Tribune…I think) about a little gadget that can help relieve knee pain when you are doing exercises that require you to put pressure on your knees such as modified push ups, glute presses and spinal balance.
I had her send me the link and these actually look pretty cool. They can be used for anything, not just working out (even though we should all be exercising!!). My first thought was how my knees kill after sitting on our hardwood floors to help my daughter with a project; these can be helpful around the house as well.
They also show a small wedge to help relieve wrist pain when you are doing an exercise that requires pressure on your wrists, push ups, planks, renegade rows…
If you are avoiding certain exercises or not working out at all because of pain check it out.
NO, I have no part of the company (wish I thought of it!) but wanted to pass along the info :)
Here’s to your knee health ~ Cheers!
