    title = "The effects of 90-degree training and full range training on common knee pain",
    abstract = "Throughout the years, it was widely believed that strength training involving that knee that exceeded angles of 90 degrees increased pain and injury risk in the knee. More recently, studies are finding that training through a full range of motion may be beneficial for the knee and can reduce pain. This causes debate on whether one style of training may be better than the other in terms of reducing knee pain. The purpose of this study was to try to find if one style of strength training was better than the other at reducing knee pain. If strength training reduces knee pain, then strength training through a greater range of motion may reduce knee pain more effectively. Two programs were created using similar exercise structures that incorporated the two different styles of training. Two participants with similar knee pain and profiles were placed on each program and data was collected at the end of each week. At the end of the study period, the participant on the full range of motion program saw his pain levels decrease 50% from the initial data point while the participant on the 90-degree program saw a 20% decrease in pain. (Bar graph 1) These results support the claim that training through a full range of motion may be more effective at reducing knee pain than stopping at 90 degrees. This may suggest that in the future, more full range exercises may be used in physical therapy sessions to reduce knee pain.",
