Sit back on your heels. If your feet don't lie flat, your knees are paying for it
That is the reel most of you came from. These are the four I would start with. The foot first, then up the chain to the hip
The foot is where it starts. The knee is where you feel it
Pain is a sign of a movement gap. It is not the problem
Twelve exercises is a sheet. Four is a habit
You were probably handed a page of exercises once. You did them for a week. Then life came back. Four is a number you can hold in your head without the page
What's inside
Heel sit with balls and a roller
Big toe extension against a wall
90/90 hip rotation, one leg at a time
Hip flexor stretch on a bench or wall
A video for each one, with every cue in the voice-over. A one page PDF with all four, sets and reps included
What you need
A foam roller, two massage balls, a yoga block and a mat
What you will feel
A stretch across the top of the foot. An ache where the balls press, in the crease behind the knee. The front of the hip opening, not the lower back
This is not for you if
The injury is new, or the pain is getting worse
There is swelling, numbness, or a joint that gives way
A clinician told you not to load it
In any of those, see a clinician where you live first

FAQ
How often do I do them?
The heel sit and the hip flexor stretch every day. The big toe and the 90/90 every other day
My feet won't lie flat at all. Is this still for me?
Yes. That is where it starts. If the heel sit hurts your knee, move the roller further back
My pain is in my knee, not my foot. Is this for me?
It may help. The foot and the hip move the knee. That is why the four start at the big toe and end at the hip
Is this medical advice?
No. These are exercises. If a check or an exercise hurts, stop
What if it is not for me?
