“We’re excited to launch the new Knee Health pathway, with the goal of lowering aggravation in the knees, and increasing the longevity of overall knee health,” says Cody Mooney, director of performance at pliability. “Using a series of routines to help build resilience, pliability has put together short, dynamic corrective exercises that target the structures around the knee, improving overall movement quality and health.”
CrossFit professional Noah Ohlsen (pictured) adds, “Through my time in CrossFit, I really understand how important knee health is. Our knees enable us to walk, run, jump, sit and squat.
“As an athlete, pliability’s new path is something that I incorporate into my everyday routine, to help reduce the chance of injury and allow me to perform at my best.”

Hold: 1-2 mins
Key benefits: This is an excellent pose for relieving tightness and improving your overall mobility. This pose activates and strengthens your glutes and core.
• Begin on your hands and knees.
• Reach your left knee back to where the wall meets the floor and begin to stretch your chest up.
• Depending on your range of motion, bring your right foot up to your right hand and raise your chest up higher, increasing the stretch in the front of your hip and thigh.
• Hold for 1-2 minutes, then repeat on the other side.
