Knee Deep in Exercise

Do you want a workout that will keep your knees in tip-top shape? Consider

yoga.

A small study revealed that Hatha, or physical, yoga exercises may

dramatically improve knee flexion and extension strength. For best knee

benefits, be sure to incorporate yoga poses that work the quadriceps and

hamstring muscles along the front and back of the thigh.

RealAge Benefit: A physical activity program that builds stamina, strength,

and flexibility can make your RealAge as much as 8.1 years younger.
