5 exercises to beat chronic knee pain (slideshow)

#4 – Chair sits

The name pretty much tells you everything.

Stand in front of a chair with your feet shoulder width apart. Push your bottom back and down as if you were going to sit down in the chair and then raise up again. Repeat 15 times.

Chair sits give you the benefit of squats without the potential damage to your knees since you’re not lowering yourself as far.
