Knee-Relieving Exercises Part 2

The stronger the muscles in your legs, the better they will perform when pain in the joint of your knee, or ankles and feet for that matter, rears its ugly head. That does not limit itself to the muscles around your knees, but also pertains to all the ones located throughout your entire legs.

To stretch and make the muscles in the front of your thighs stronger, you can do the following routine; stand up straight. You can support yourself by holding on to something with one hand that will hold you.

Lift the foot that corresponds with your free hand off the ground behind you. Grab it with your free hand and gently, without forcing it, pull the heel towards your bottom. Hold it there for about 10 seconds and then switch sides.

Another exercise required you to go down to all fours. Place your hands under your shoulders and your knees under your hips. Bend your elbows lightly so that your spine makes a straight line. Lift your knees a little off the floor and put them back. Repeat this at least 25 times; it works the muscles at the front of your thighs.

There are also some other exercises which require being seated or lying down. I will get around to them another time. If you can't do those because it is too difficult to get up or down, the ones you can do standing up may already be enough to relief your knee pain.

If you can't do any at all then don't worry. Wait until the pain subsides to exercise when and as much as your body allows. You can always pray, no matter what physical shape you are in. God gives all according to their needs, but don't be afraid to ask. Ask, and you shall receive!

Isaiah 35:3
Strengthen the weak hands, And make firm the feeble knees.
