Description
Knee pain is one of the most common issues people deal with and one of the most misunderstood. If you’ve ever searched for answers online, you’ve likely come across conflicting advice, oversimplified “fixes,” and one-size-fits-all exercises that promise results but rarely deliver. That’s because social media is saturated with quick tips and catchy sound bites that often miss the bigger picture of what knee pain is, why it happens, and, most importantly, what really helps.
In this two-week online education course, licensed physical therapist Jessica Bento tackles the noise head-on. With over 20 years as a clinician, Jessica dives into the most popular knee pain claims floating around social media and breaks down what’s helpful, what’s harmful, and what’s completely misunderstood.
From the all too common, but lacking evidence, “knee pain means you have weak quads” or “your knees should always go over your toes” to mobility drills that are either too aggressive or completely disconnected from real movement needs, this course helps you sift through the confusion. You’ll gain a clearer understanding of how knee pain actually develops looking at biomechanics, load management, tissue tolerance, and other key principles that influence pain and performance.
But this isn’t just about theory. Each lesson blends education with practical strategies you can immediately apply. Jessica walks you through movement progressions, technique considerations, and ways to scale exercises up or down based on individual needs. You’ll see how to approach training for knee resilience, not just short-term relief. You’ll also get tools for assessing whether advice you see online is relevant to your situation—or just trendy content with little real value.
What you will learn:
- Learn why so much social media advice around knee pain is misleading or incomplete
- Understand the biomechanics of the knee and how it interacts with the hips, feet, and trunk
- Discover how to build tolerance, not avoid movement
- Identify the difference between discomfort that’s productive vs pain that signals a need to adjust
- Explore how to use strength training, power development, and mobility work to support knee health
- See movement demonstrations that balance evidence-based structure with practical coaching
This course is ideal for fitness professionals, clinicians, and anyone who’s tired of chasing the latest trends and wants to understand the why behind effective knee pain strategies. Whether you’re managing chronic discomfort or trying to help clients return to training confidently, this course will give you the clarity and tools you need.
