Overview
In this lesson, we present knee rotation passive range hold, a technique for finding and holding your knee's rotational capacity without active effort.
Objective
Gain understanding of your passive knee rotation range and learn to hold end-range positions safely.

This is foundational for understanding what the joint can do before you try to strengthen it. In your practice, it prepares you for twists and transitions that demand knee rotation. If you work with clients, it's a baseline assessment—you need to know what's passively available before asking for active control.
