The next exercise to help heal Chondromalacia Patella is to do this different form of clamshells. You're going to lie on your side, stack your legs on top of each other to make sure your feet are stacked and look at your top knee here. You've got to roll your hips and shoulders over this way as if you're going to lie down to make this top knee stick out past your bottom. This forces the muscle back here to really work. It's the muscle that's right under your back pocket. If you had pants on with pockets, hold that position, then you're going to lift up your leg just a little bit like this. Hold it for 10 seconds. You should feel your glute muscle working back here. You might even feel on the bottom leg and that's a good thing. Now you're tightening the glute muscle without firing everything else in your thigh. If you roll back or lift too high, you're going to be using thigh muscles and it's going to make your patella problem worse.
