His unique ability to identify the blocks that keep people stuck in pain and skillfully removing them allows for lasting change and a new reality for his clients…
HI,
I have zero pain in my knee until I cycle over about 15 miles, then I start noticing pain in on the side of my knee until in builds so much I can’t turn the pedals. Once I’m home and move around walking it starts disappearing again. Any ideas what it could be? My passion is cycling and I’m desperate to get back out on a long ride.
Many thanks

Hi Bill, Couple of years back I started doing Yoga and I developed pain in my left knee because of over stretching. After few days of ice massage and anti inflammatory medication it was Ok . I could feel very mild stiffness but no pain and it was ok . Now a month back i went for 15km snow walking and the knee pain got worsened. Infact , all my joints were aching. Then iam diagnosed with low vitamin d and low iron and also the cartilage in my left knee has been damaged. Iam taking supplements for vit-d and… Read more »

What was the diagnosis your doctor gave you?

Chondromalacia
I also got involved in an accident while riding my Morpheus CONSPIRACY Standard Build. It took me a month or so to recover. I’m just glad that you too are improving.
You good? Any questions?

Hi I just stumbled across this article and have a few questions. I have been having knee problems for a long time now, but my GP has narrowed it down to my weight issues (I am a little bit heavier than I should be but am making slow progress to a healthier lifestyle). This said, I am at the gym 4 – 5 times a week doing cardio and strength training, but my knees never seem to make the full duration of the workout. Most of the time I experience terrible pain in my right knee after squats & lunges… Read more »
Hi Bill,
After 5 knee ops i cannot cycle due to the fact the vmo does not engage when cycling, even after 3 mins cycling, over the following 48 hrs my glutes, bicep femoris, lateral quads and calf muscles all go extremly tight and its seems like my shin bone is being twisted externally…..is there any way to sort this out??? i really miss cycling. simple stretching and trigger point therapy don’t help.
YAY! Sounds like you are aldeary doing pretty well and I bet the ice/elevation is helping a LOT. Hopefully you'll just keep improving from here!!

Hi Bill,
My left knee is still painful to bend – I tried to cycle but my knee hurt above the knee cap when it bent and it still hurts when I am going down stairs. Walking up the stairs seems fine though!
Hi Bill,
Just read your article and noticed a similarity… I too have this pain in my knee, just below the knee cap. I have not been to the doctor’s yet but just want to know whether can this be cured quickly (a week or two) or do I have to lay off cycling for a while. I do mainly mountain biking, trails and some roads. In your experience, would appreciate to know whether this is not a ligament tear or so.

Hi Bill, thank you for your time. I have had knee problems from cycling for a number of seasons. Two years ago I had a snowmobile accident and had to have my knee tightened? I started cycling again this season and had no problems with pain. Now just today it started hurting again. When I had the surgery the Dr. said he fixed three things while he was in there. It was looking as though he had fixed my cycling problem too until today. The first time I hurt it was a cold day and many miles, too slow cadence… Read more »
Hello Bill, you talk about running as part of the advance exercises. But I was wondering whether running the stairs in my apartment block, (starting with walking) would be a good alternative. The reason is that at present I live and work in Moscow, Russia and the air quality is not that good and everyone parks their cars on the pavement anyway.
