Knee discomfort doesn’t necessarily mean squats are off the table.
A swiss ball wall squat provides extra support and allows you to position your feet slightly further forward, which can help reduce the demand at the knee while still effectively loading the quads and glutes. It also makes it easy to control your depth, so you can work within a comfortable range and gradually build capacity over time.
Because the goal isn’t to avoid loading your knees - appropriate, progressive loading is part of making them stronger.
