    OMG Jen! All these years i have been climbing stairs with my knee over my toes. I tried your excercises focusing on not letting my knee get a head of my foot instead keep it perpendicular to my foot. I walked up all the stairs with zero pain! Thank you so much for sharing!

    Upstairs, cutting pain under the kneecap. Working on gluts strengthening, stretching the quads as quad strengthening exercises exercises aggravates it while stretching the quads makes it feel better.

    This probably means you are putting too much of that pressure and torque on your knee. I would try to focus on hip mobility so you get more of the motion at the hip!
