You need to strengthen your knees...       07/29/05 03:01 AM Edit Reply Quote Linz Reged: 09/01/03 Posts: 8242 Loc: England ...or working out could really hurt you. Try these... Siting on the floor with your legs stretched out straight in front of you, do 3 sets of 10 reps on each leg (or work up to that) of each of the following : 1. Tense a knee so your knee cap moves up your leg and your heel is lifted about an inch off the floor. Hold for 5 and then release. 2. Tense your knee and lift your heel about 6 inches off the floor. Hold for 5 and then release. 3. Rotate your foot outwards, tense your knee and lift it about an inch off the floor. Hold for 5 and then release. My docs thought my knee pains were due to weak knees for years (actually Fibro) so they had me doing all sorts of physio. These really helped even tho that wasn't actually my problem - they're great prep exercises for skiing too! Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
