5 Leg Exercises for Arthritic Knees AND Bad Knees

[@pattydesmaisons6611]

I've had both knees replaced (2013) and have been doing these exercises for a few years. They have been presented well in the video and I would recommend anyone with issues to give them a try. Start slow and give yourself a chance to strengthen all those muscles around your joints.

[@FitMotherProject]

Thank you Patty 🙏

[@chinghuichen9503]

How often for these leg exercise? Does it require resting 1-2days? What is maximum benefits in term of how many times per week?

[@chilvilly]

thank you

[@amyplemire]

Wow, these are great! Thanks for the feedback. Struggling with arthritic knees and worried my quads are beginning to atrophy because I can’t do any more exercises at the gym. I’m trying these now!

[@tonyacummings5794]

This guy obviously does not have bad knees,the split squat is the worst ,even folks with good knees feel pain on this.

[@user-tz4qn8zq9w]

Buddy, you have no clue what you’re talking about

[@emillyhatfield456]

@@user-tz4qn8zq9was someone with very arthritic knees this squat is almost impossible even when I have something to hold onto

[@langho5704]

aggravated my knee recently and this video is a blessing, was worried I couldn't train legs anymore

[@wsymphony]

I hope you get better soon.

[@FitMotherProject]

I hope you recover soon Lang Ho 🙏

[@twinkletoes1082]

Definitely going to try these, have found all videos really useful and authentic not like others just trying to get money our of you. Keep up the good work Dr Anthony 😁😁😁

[@kevingreene4399]

So true. Dr. A makes videos for everyone and explains the reason for the exercises and nutrition better than anyone on KZbin. His knowledge likely took years to gain by studying and learning what works. Too many other KZbinrs are just Googling information.

[@FitMotherProject]

Thank you 🙏

[@FitMotherProject]

Thank you Kevin 🙏

[@kathyfinn5996]

Thank you so much for this video. I have been using your “weight training for women over 50” for months now and love it. Your demos and explanations are wonderful. I have been looking for exercises that I can do on my off days while i am resting from my “knees over toes” workouts Love the idea of targeting my glutes and hamstrings!

[@kathym.5676]

Great leg exercise workout. I’m 57 and had arthroscopic surgery on my knee for small meniscus tear 7 weeks ago- looking forward to getting back to running soon. This set will help me achieve that goal. Thanks!

[@FitMotherProject]

You're very welcome Katie! Best luck and a speedy recovery 🙏🏼

[@kathleenhuld5320]

I love this video. I am thankful I found this. My knees were so painful ❤

[@msbarb1]

I found this video VERY Valuable, these are most of the exercisers my physical therapist gave me to do to help strengthen my knew (now close to bone on bone) they are definitely safe for me, thank you for being authentic in help people like me.

These exercises are exactly what I've been looking for. I'm 67 and have bone on bone in my left knee which causes me to avoid most leg exercises. Now I can work on getting my legs strong again. How many times per week do you recommend doing these? Thank you!

[@FitMotherProject]

2-3 times per week 👍

[@shobanagangadharan6936]

I know this is going to help a ton of people, joint care if ridiculously important so it's nice to see someone put so much emphasis on how to exercise with a less than perfect body.

[@FitMotherProject]

That makes me very happy to hear Nirmala! You're very welcome 🙏🏼

[@Reina_bendita]

well done for this video. I have Osteoarthritis of the knee and i happen to be a gym rat. so these are great workout but having osteoarthritis means; do i have to give up doing leg extensions, hack squats, leg press, walking lunges, lunges, reverse lunges, hip thrust and all forms of squat variations? please help me on this as i can't find any professional around me to confirm this. You are saving a life with this help Sir. Best Regards.

[@Reina_bendita]

I'm 29-30 yrs. old

[@FitMotherProject]

Thanks for writing in! You don't necessarily have to give all of them up as it's still possible to lift with arthritis. However, it's all about giving your muscles/joints a proper warm-up to get them ready to handle the load. Check out this warm-up playlist for some ideas: kzbin.info/aero/PLbG8O6B6Zl8n3n2CL5Vted_MkuCkENkYJ Best of luck! -The FMP Team
