🏆 Why This Guide Works

Runner’s Knee improves fastest when you strengthen the right muscles — especially the hips and quadriceps — and improve how the knee tracks during movement.
This QuickStart Guide uses the most evidence-supported early exercises, including hip abductor activation, quadriceps isometrics, and controlled functional movements that calm irritation without overloading the joint.

It’s the perfect foundation before moving into a structured, multi-week Fix-It Program.
