Squat This, Squat That

For all you folks out there that have had or presently have knee issues...you too, can do squats.  It's all about HOW you squat.  The error people make when performing squats is that they put all the load and weight on the knees because of incorrect posture.  If you perform deep squats properly, you can actually IMPROVE and STABILIZE the knee joint.

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  Stick your toushie out as if you're getting on to the toilet, then squat down into a parallel position with the floor with your arms extended out in front of you for balance.  The load and weight is now on your glutes.  Slowly raise up into standing position.  Of course, if you have no articular cartilage or have tracking problems of the knees, aquatics is better for you.  Use common sense when working out, but this tip could bring you stronger, sexier legs and an iron butt to boot!
