If your knees feel cranky during squats, running, stairs…
Start training the front of your shin.
It helps with ankle control, knee tracking, deceleration, and stability.
1- KB hang on feet (tibialis lift)
Lift toes → control the drop
2–4 sets × 10–20
Tibia raises (wall support)
Toes up → slow down
2–3 sets × 15–25

If leg day feels heavy, tight, or cranky… It’s not your strength.
It’s your warm up and stretches.
This is how I warm up and stretch so leg day doesn’t steal my next two days….
1: Toe touch to squats
This is your wake-up call.
Hamstrings lengthen, hips load, spine moves. You’re teaching your body to bend without panicking.
2: Squats + knee bends
Easy reps, full control.
Lubricates knees, ankles, hips.
