I agree swimming is the best but not everyone is willing to put on a bathing suit in public, like me. Go to Google and search for McKenzie knee exercises. You may not be able to do some of them but many are seated and they help with better movement. Good luck!

Swimming, water aerobics, got a knee injury and it’s the least difficult for me. It’s also relaxing, so that’s a plus.

I have the same things going on with me right now. I was told to do aquatic exercises or use a low bike at the YMCA to pedal.

I agree. I used to do that. It’s wonderful. Now I sit in a chair and lift my legs and arms in different positions. Similar to chair yoga.
