Hyperextended knees
Hyperextended knees
The body will use knee hyperextension as a strategy for standing when it finds the position more stable or efficient than standing with the knees in neutral. Having “loose” joints makes it easier for the knee to go into a hyperextended position, but to explain why someone is standing this way we need to look beyond the knees.
