Use them sparingly, if at all. Wrapping can reduce the development of knee ligaments and tendons. When you do wrap your knees, make sure you always wrap each knee from an outside to inside style, as this will better protect the patella.<br><br>KNEE ALIGNMENT WITH THE SQUAT<br> <br>Correct Knee Alignment (Picture 5): Get into a squatting stance and look at the middle of each knee. If you were to drop a string straight down, where would it land? The string should land in the middle of the foot for perfect alignment as in Picture 5. During any athletic movement, including squatting, the knees should always be over the middle of the toes.<br>There are three basic problem areas for the knees to look for when squatting: Knees Out, Knees In and Knees Forward.<br>Knees Out (Picture 6): Squatting with the knees out will put unwanted pressure on the lateral collateral ligaments. The Knees-out problem can easily be corrected by just widening out the athlete s stance. Widen out the stance until the knees are aligned directly over the toes.<br>Knees In (Picture 7 & 9): This problem is quite common with women athletes and junior high age boys. When squatting, the knees in problem will surface on the way up. The knees are usually alright on the way down when squatting. The knees-in problem puts unwanted pressure on the medial collateral ligaments.<br>The knees-in problem is more difficult to correct. The first step is to yell  knees to the athlete while squatting. This is a signal to force the knees out over the toes. This signal may or may not work the first time. If not, the second correction technique is to lightly slap the inside of the athlete s knee (Picture 7). This gives the athlete a kinesthetic feel of the problem. The cure usually happens after only a few light slaps. <br>If the problem persists, then video tape the athlete squatting so that (s)he can see the problem. This will almost always do the trick. <br>Knees Forward: Many beginning squatters will want to lift their heels off the ground and bring their knees forward as the main part of their descent pattern. This puts too much pressure on the patella area, besides being horribly ineffective. <br>If the knees are past the tips of the toes, they are too far forward. To help correct this, use the partner system and practice squatting with the hips back and with the knees vertically as straight as possible (Picture 8). The athlete should  sit tall and  spread the chest with the elbows and shoulders back. The athlete will now be able to balance with the heels on the ground in a perfect parallel squat position.<br><br>KNEE ALIGNMENT WITH <br>PULLING MOVEMENTS<br><br>The Power Clean requires straight knees (Picture 9): Use a  jump stance when lifting any weight from the floor as in the Power Clean. A wider, shoulder width type stance will cause unwanted pressure to the medial
