Adam Fohrman's Knee Saga, with special guest host Adam Kreisel
I've had bone-on-bone arthritis since age 15. I hand the mic to my friend Adam Kreisel and let him interview me about the knee injury that started my battle with chronic pain, the PCL reconstruction that followed, and the long stretch of years where knee pain quietly shaped every hike, every snowboard day, and even trips to Costco.
We talk about what it’s like to be told you qualify for a total knee replacement in your 20s, and how I successfully delayed the inevitable until age 40. We dig into the decision of when to pull the trigger, why pre-hab and strength training matter, and how yoga became the practice I rely on to stay mobile, reduce compensation patterns, and build a deeper understanding of my body.
If you’re searching for real-world knee replacement recovery insights, this conversation gets specific: range of motion battles, sleep deprivation, scar tissue, nerve pain, and why the recovery feels so much easier than ligament reconstruction surgery.
We also review strategies ranging from the Feldenkrais method, self-massage and foam rolling, acupuncture, chiropractic, biking, and gym work outs, plus PRP injections, stem cell injections, and hyaluronic acid injections.
Then we get practical with knees over toes style training, tibialis exercises, and even the weird link between atmospheric pressure, swelling, and how a simple sleeve brace can help on stormy days.
