Recently, I wrote about loving lunges and urged everyone to add them to their workout.

Any way to work around this, Fit?” – The New Black There are indeed work-arounds that will work your lower body, while being kind to your knees. You can

try to replace lunges with squats or leg presses on the machine. Some folks find that reverse lunges are gentler on the knee joint so you can experiment with that variation of the move. An alternative that I especially love is Step Ups because they work a lot of the same muscles that lunges would work. Learn how to do Step Ups.
