10 Easy Knee Exercises

Recumbent Cycling

Cycling is usually considered a lower-impact physical activity than running or walking. Nevertheless, cycling in a hilly area or with an improper form would put more pressure on your knees. To reduce the strain and weight, recumbent cycling can be a great alternative. Basic positions in this exercise are quite similar to riding in a lying-down posture. By doing this, you can minimize the amount of bodyweight on your knees. In addition, it would reduce the risks of pedaling with your knees pointing out, which would be damaging to these joints. [5]
