10 Steps to Fixing Knee Pain on Stairs: Step #1 Tippy Toes

Picture
By Richard Symister, MovEvolution
Whether it’s a habit or a lack of ankle mobility, if you’re pushing off from just your toes versus using more of your entire foot when ascending stairs, you may be overloading your foot and ankle. This can put excess strain on your knee joint, leading to localized knee joint pain. 

Try this:  No more tippy toes! Distribute the weight. 

Try putting as much of your foot on the step as possible when climbing stairs. Try to distribute the weight evenly across the front and midfoot. (I wear a size 12 shoe, so it’s asking a lot from me to get my entire heel on the step.)

Here’s the problem. Some folks have really tight ankles and cannot get their foot flat on the stairs when either going up or downstairs. Whether it’s a tight Achilles or ankle joint restrictions, these limitations can put you right onto your toes.

Can’t get that foot comfortably flat on the step? Do you lack ankle mobility? Heal your knee pain from the bottom up and fix your ankle mobility HERE.

Heal. Move. STEP. Evolve.
