Strengthen your quads, the front set of muscles on your upper leg, to prevent knee replacement.

Soccer trainers have known this for years relative to minimizing knee injuries.

Short sided...it is the other way around. The hamstrings are notoriously, weak in many people, which causes imbalances between each leg and causes issues which posture and tightness of the IT band, which causes improper Gait and knee tracking (the knee cap begins to point left or right, slightly. This coupled with low vitamin D status for too long, weak mud-back muscles, placing a wallet in your back pocket on a daily basis, crossing your legs, too long and pointing your knee towards the center of your car or door, while driving in traffic, is what raises your risk for a knee replacement.

I’m 84. I make it a point to climb at least 10 flights of stairs everyday.

Ugly legs. Yes, but if she was your woman, you'd never have to pay for a knee transplant.

Strengthen your mid-back muscles and ankles and your knee pain should improve. Also, alternate which leg you lead with when you climb the stairs.

I’m still amazed by the fact that despite both my hips having imploded due to “overwork” (my word) I’ve never had a lick of trouble with either of my knees. One would thing that the same stresses that destroyed my hips would damage my knees...but they didn’t.
To: ConservativeMind
I don’t think so
Knee replacement is about cartilage destruction and bone on bone pain.
Strengthening quads make for easier knee replacements

What causes your hips to go, is low vitamin D status, improper Gait and weak ankles.

My ex-gf had terrific thighs, could crush a walnut if placed between them.

Not in my case.The surgeon told me that I was born with an anatomical anomaly that made me more susceptible to hip problems than I otherwise would have been.
To: aMorePerfectUnion
True, but those legs would not be on my woman. I have the good fortune of having a pretty wife with some nice gams. 😁
