Stay strong and healthy while recovering from an injury with these leg and knee injury workouts.

If you are recovering from a leg/knee injury that requires surgery (like me), or have knee pain and are looking for a workout that challenges you, I’ve rounded up my top knee and leg friendly workouts at home.

It is important to keep moving when recovering from a knee injury to prevent stiffness, reduce knee pain, increase blood circulation, improve flexibility and strengthen your knees. Strengthening the muscles around your knee joints like your collateral ligaments and patellar tendon can help reduce the risk of injuries in the future too.

Most of these free knee friendly workouts require a chair/bench, set of medium-to-heavy dumbbells, and mini loop resistance band.
