Landing on your knees, not your hips

When the knees shoot forward and cave in on landing, the quads and knee joints take the load the glutes should handle. That habit adds up to sore knees.

What to watch for

  • • Knees dive inward on landing
  • • Heels lift, weight on toes
  • • Hips stay high and stiff

Fix this habit
