Be nice to your knees
Stretching. As someone who had sore knees a lot, stretching all the things from lower back to knees help. Im no muscle-ologist so I can’t tell you the names of these muscle groups.
And anecdotally for me, zero drop shoes along with stretching. The cheapo ones from Amazon have held together better and longer than any other ‘name brand’ and for only $20.
Do you have a stretching regimen you recommend
Look up stretches for glutes, hip flexors, quads, hamstrings, ITB (I think that’s what it is) and low back.
There are many, some a bit easier if you’re not quite flexible at the moment. Sorry I can’t be more precise- I’ve got a mental catalog of stretches that I’ve accumulated since high school track 20 years ago… and I’ve heard them called different things, or done slightly differently over the years. I’m not the best example, I tend to do them every once in a while when things get stiff and or tight /sore. ..
