What is the IT Band?
The iliotibial tract or "IT band" is a long, fibrous band of flexible fascia that extends from the hip to just below the outside of the knee.
IT band pain:
If you have pain on the outside of the knee it may be "IT band syndrome", a common overuse injury. It is typically seen in runners & cyclists.
It is often developed with a Crossover gait - Schedule a Running Assessment to learn how to fix that!
Give it a try and go hit that PR!!
