Dr. Aaron Horschig shares his method of fixing knee cave during the squat with a progression of exercises:
1) Improve foot stability
2) Single leg squat
3) Balance and reach
4) RNT squat
When we squat, the knee needs to stay in perfect alignment with the toes. Any wobble from this position decreases our ability to produce strength and power. Instability also causes harmful forces to be placed on the structures deep inside our knee. This instability not only decreases our potential for performance but also increases our susceptibility for injury.
