Bad Knees

Anyone know of some exercises, or even exercise videos, for someone with horrendous knees? I've had about 9 knee surgeries total throughout the years. I'm getting bored now with the treadmill, bike, eliptycal, and my walking video. I love Pilates, but can't get on my knees without them locking.

    Build up the muscles that support the knees.

    The original Windsor pilates video is a good pilates one if you can get to the floor. There aren't any moves on your knees... most are on your back, working your core. It would just be a matter of getting to the floor and back up again.
