Knee Neuromuscular Control

Progress measured by movement quality, not weight

Who it’s for

Knee or hip osteoarthritis, pain when walking or climbing stairs.

How it works

Twelve sessions over six weeks, twice a week. Five exercise groups: lunges, functional movements, knee strength, hip strength, and core strength. The main difference from standard strength training is that progress is judged by movement quality, knee alignment, and trunk control, not by weight or rep count. In a sample of 28,000 participants across three countries, this program reduced pain by 26–33% and improved sit-to-stand performance by 18–30%.

How load increases

Advance to the next difficulty level only when the movement is performed with straight knee alignment and no trunk collapse. Pain up to 5 out of 10 during and after a session is acceptable, provided it returns to baseline by the next morning. If it doesn't, reduce the load.

Deload

Not required over six weeks.
