Hi Tony.Re: Exercises before knee replacements
When my husband had his knee replacement he did very little exercises for his knees prior as he just couldn't move to do them it was so painful. He did however find exercising after it was most important and he still several years on does his exercises set by the physio each day before he starts work.Re: Exercises before knee replacements

Re: Exercises before knee replacements
I have had both of mine done, swimming was what I was advised to do. I srarted on ten lengths and gradually built it up to 32 which is a half mile in a 25metre pool. It built up the muscles above and below the knee and made it stronger for when the operation happens. I still swim 5 days a week as it does my joints good and keeps them supple and free moving.
