Best Leg Workout With Knee Pain

November 2, 2017

The best lower body workout for knee pain. Great leg exercises even with bad knees on Tone-and-Tighten.com

As a doctor of physical therapy, one of the most common injuries that I treat in my clinic is knee joint pain.

It’s incredible how debilitating knee pain can be! Even the simplest of activities such as standing and walking can be limited by pain in this one joint.

Today I wanted to share with you 8 of my favorite lower body strengthening exercises that you can do despite painful knees. These virtually no-impact exercises are not only easier on the knee joint itself, but chances are they might also help your knees to feel better as you strengthen key muscles that stabilize the knee! …

best at home stretches for low back pain 

Who among us hasn’t experienced some degree of pain in their lower back? It’s easily the most-common complaint that I treat in my physical therapy clinic. In fact – did you know that 8 out of every 10 people will experience a significant episode of low back pain at some point in their lives? Whether you hurt from lifting your toddler, sitting long hours in a desk at work, or even something so ridiculously simple as picking up your toothbrush off the floor (I’ve actually seen it before) – no one is immune and no one likes it!

So what do we do about it? Most people just bear with the pain until it eventually goes away or bugs them so much they go in to see a healthcare professional about it. As a physical therapist I can say unequivocally that there is A LOT you can do conservatively to treat your own back pain. Today I wanted to share with you 5 of my favorite stretches you can do to mitigate your low back pain and get back on the symptom-free track. Here we go!

best home exercises for back pain
  
Hey everyone! I am totally and completely stoked to introduce you to our newest series here on Tone and Tighten! I’ve always encouraged reader questions and comments here on the site – the response has been phenomenal! A number of these emails have been questions from T&T’s readers regarding injuries, pain, and other common problems that I treat daily. In an effort to respond to these emails/messages, I thought it might be kind of cool to help the masses and make my answers available to everyone! That being said, I want to introduce you to our new monthly “Feel Better Now” series! Each month I will discuss a common injury that I see often in the physical therapy clinic. We will share some information about what it is and why you’re experiencing it.  Then, most importantly, I want to offer you a few solutions/exercises as to what you can do to help it! My goal is to make Tone and Tighten the most comprehensive health and wellness website on the web; this is just another step in that direction! Hope you enjoy……
