The Importance of proper joint alingment throughout your kinetic chain

Most problems with pain or poor movement patterns are normally not just localized in 1 area, everything is aligned through your kinetic chain and if one of those chain links are off it will affect your joints up stream and down stream from the issue. 
For anyone with knee problems I would first look at what the feet and hips are doing because they play a major roll in alignment and stability of the knee, you can see from the photo that once the feet collapse the knee moves inward (valgus) putting undue stress on the hip then putting stress on the back and even affecting alignment of your shoulder as well😁

If you are starting an exercise routine and have these issues it's very important to plan in some corrective work to help realign your body for optimal performance and stay injury free!
It's very common in bootcamp style classes people get yelled at and completely destroyed by a "coach" doing hundreds of repetitions with so many movement dysfunctions and very little if none of actual movement corrections or corrective work being thought.

Always remember with any sort of exercise class/program you do, if this is something you want to do for life it should always be quality before quantity. Anyone can make you tired,sweaty and sore but not everyone can make you better so choose wisely 🙏🏼😊
