Episode 234 - Why Your Knee Hurts Going Down Stairs (But Not Up)

July 24, 2026·23 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

If you've noticed your knee hurts more or just that it's harder for you when you're going down the stairs compared to up, it can feel confusing. Most people take that as a sign something's wearing out. That they're just getting old. But that's not really what's happening. In this episode I'm breaking down what's actually different about descending, why "getting stronger" doesn't always fix it, and what you need to do to make descending stairs a non-issue for your knees. 1:1 Consult: https://jenhosler.com/monthly-coaching/  Movement School Waitlist: https://jenhosler.com/movement-school/
