Leg Exercises with Knee Pain

Millions of people suffer from knee pain and don't feel like they can really workout their legs because of it. I found some exercises to try to work on your legs without giving you too much pain in the knees!

Warm Up:

Leg Extensions

This exercise warms up your quads and get what little blood you have in your joint flowing, with the intent on working the legs to their full potential. Now I will stress you must be careful not to go heavy in the beginning. When bringing the weight up, make sure to lock out your knees with controlled descent.

Do 3 sets of 10 reps with whatever weight you are comfortable with.

Dumbbell Step-Ups

Take the bar (or dumbbells), put it on your shoulders in the high bar position, and step up on a bench with one leg. Bring the other leg all the way up into a 90-degree angle, stepping back down to the floor with the 90-degree-angle leg, switching legs the next time you step up.

Do 3 sets of 10 reps with whatever weight you are comfortable with.

Stiff-Legged Barbell Deadlift

Start with your feet about an inch apart, toes facing forward. The barbell should be resting in front of you on the floor. Grab the barbell with one hand as an underhand grip and the other hand as an overhand grip. Keep your back straight with a slight bend in your knees, and pull the bar with your hams, glutes, and lower back. Hold at the top of the movement for a second, and descend the weight down in full control.

Do 3 sets 10 reps with just the bar (or add weights).
