How do I fix this?
I think its the cause of my knee pain after squating.
Could also just be doing squats 3x a week idk
>>
get knee sleeves
>>
>>41916671
Strengthen the glute medius. Do the vagina machine as well as use a hip circle and do side steps. Also glute bridges and hip thrusts. Also do RDLs and keep your feet perfectly straight ahead (not pointed out) and try to keep the weight on the lateral sides of your feet, essentially the opposite of the pic you posted.

Theres nothing you cam do against knocked knees. I have them too. Shit sucks, but you can work around it.
>>
>>41916711
hahahahaha
>>
>>41916701
Are knee sleeves better than knee wraps
>>
>>41916703
I did the vagina machine for the first time tonight and did like 50 reps with the full stack. Why is it so easy?
>>
>>41916671
Medical student here

This is not something you can fix with exercise, it is something you could correct with surgery. You are at more risk of getting osteoarthritis in the knee from this. Loading more weight on the joint would only exacerbate it more if anything. Its predominantly from a lack of vitamin D during teenage years during the phases on bone development.

Goodluck kappa
>>
>>41921422
The kappa really terrifies me here, but im still a teenager. Can I fix?
>>
>>41916671
Squat with your knees out instead of in.

If your stance is fine but your knees cave in when you try to go up from the bottom of the squat, you're squatting more than you can handle.
>>
>>41921484
No thats not the problem its just that my knees naturally go like that when im standing. not quite as bad as in the picture
>>
>>41921422
>Loading more weight on the joint would only exacerbate it more if anything.

>>

Physical Therapist here, medbro is right. There are some cases where knock knees are caused by muscle imbalances but if it's to the extent of the case in OP's pic you need to get surgery.
>>
>>41921644
try not to get polio as a child
too late for you though, rip
>>
>>41921644
you need to go to a physical therapist and a TRAINER WHO IS A PHYSICAL THERAPIST before doing things like squats. Because of your condition you are going to be putting IMMENSE strain on some of your ligaments like your LCL, when doing squats. You are asking for snap city.

This should've been corrected in childhood, I'm not sure there is much of anything you can do now.

yes

>>41918988
They have different functions. Knee sleeves are for injury prevention. Knee wraps are for elasticity to help you bounce back up.

Thats with my feet together, is this still normal?

Heres another pic, is it still as bad?
>>
>>41921497
Not the med student but people with knock knees are prone to joint inflammation (arthritis) if it isn't corrected. I would see your doctor. If you are a teen and still growing maybe you can get it corrected with special shoes.
>>
>>41921822
>>41921845
>>41921644
go to a fucking professional or just go neck yourselves
>>
>>41921879
Standing still with your feet touched isn't meant to look like this? What is meant to be touching and what isn't?
>>
>>41921845
OP is this with your feet together or apart?
>>
>>41921919
A little bit apart. my hits hit before my feet can touch
>>
>>41921922
my knees hit*
>>
>>41921644
If your gait is normal, you have nothing to worry. Seek professional advice irl from an orthopaedist/physical therapst but it could be just your joints and ligaments being flexible and giving in under intense pressure.

I have my feet together on that pic, is that normal?

I took this picture just now sitting down with my legs straight, is this normal?
>>
>>41922006
They look completely normal. But if you have strains that shouldn't be there and your technique is ok, seek pro advice. Further investigation requires x-rays and a proper exam.
>>
>>41921644
>>41921845
Op you just have a really large q angle. The bottom half of your legs are completely normal.
>>
in cycling if you have your knees tracking like that you are reccomended cleat wedges. maybe orthopedics in your shoes to stop your arches colapsing and tending to knock knees
>>
>>41921977
What constitutes a normail gait?
>>
>>41922138
When no one looks at you funny and you're comfortable with walking.
>>
>>41921480
See an orthopedist.

A number of children get knock knee during per-pubertal growth. A lot of factors like obesity, inactivity, and a vitamin d deficiency as >>41921422 pointed out can influence and exacerbate the issue.

t. had knock knee as a child and had the condition til I had my femurs cut and set by a bone surgeon at nineteen.
>>
You are fucked

You have weak abductors and glutes. Try training them, and activate them when you stand.

If you have flat feet too fix your flat feet and squatting form first, might help.
