The joints of the body do a lot of work during a life time. On the occasions when I have injured my knee, of which there has been quite a few over the years, cycling has not been one of them. In fact after a knee injury, I have found that 'gentle cycling' can aid recovery.
In my experience it does not take much to injure the knee joint. A sudden turn of direction while walking. Walking up steps while carrying something a bit heavy. Tripping over something, and even doing exercises designed to strengthen the knees.
For the cyclist, a knee injury is a big inconvenience. How are your knees, and what are your tips for keeping them strong, and recovery remedies when they get injured?
