Arnold Schwarzenegger Share Tips To Stop Knee Pain NOW! 2 Exercises To Strengthen Your Knees

2 POWER Exercises To Strengthen Your Knees — For Real Gains, No Pain!

Listen up, legends. You don’t have to be Arnold Schwarzenegger to train smart — but if your knees sound like a bag of popcorn every time you squat, it’s time to get serious.

Joint pain isn’t just for “old guys.” Whether you’re pushing plates or chasing kids, weak knees can wreck your grind.

Here are 2 Arnold-approved, no B.S. exercises to bulletproof those knees and get you back in beast mode:

🧱 1. Wall Sits — Old School, Brutally Effective

Why Arnold Swears By It: It’s raw tension. No motion, just burn. And your quads? They’ll thank you.

How to do it:

Back flat against the wall

Slide down to 90 degrees (thighs parallel to the floor)

Hold. Shake. Hold more.

Start with 30 seconds. Build up to 1–2 minutes.

Bonus swag: Add a dumbbell or plate for more pain (the good kind).

🦵 2. Step-Downs — Knee Control Like a Machine

Why It Matters: Most people go UP stairs strong. But going DOWN is where pain shows up. This trains control and strength together.

How to do it:

Stand on a step or low platform

Slowly step one foot down (like descending stairs)

Keep your knee aligned with your toe

Do 8–10 reps per leg, slow and steady

Control is king — no wobbling!

🔥 Final Swag Tip from Arnold Himself:

“You don’t stop training because you get old. You get old because you stop training.”

So get to work. Knees don’t fix themselves — you fix them. And when you do? You walk taller, train harder, and feel like a legend again.

Ready to level up? Your knees are.

Stay strong. Stay sharp. Stay swol. 💪
