I know how frustrating it can be when your knee pain flares up again during a workout or a game. It’s easy to start questioning, “Why does this keep happening?” or even wonder, “Will it ever fully heal?”
The truth is, knee pain flare-ups are a normal part of recovery—they don’t mean you’re back to square one.

Sometimes, it’s simply a sign that your training load was a bit too much that week. Other times, factors like stress, poor sleep, or introducing a new movement into your routine can play a role. Recovery isn’t a straight path, and a setback doesn’t mean you did something wrong.
However, if you keep pushing through that knee pain without understanding why it’s happening, it can start to feel like you’re stuck in a cycle.
That’s where I come in. I’ll help you navigate these moments, make the right adjustments to your training plan, and keep you moving forward toward your bigger goals—because setbacks don’t mean stopping.
If this resonates with you, book a discovery call! Let’s figure out the best plan to help you stay strong, confident, and pain-free.
