The Tone-Knees


Knees are one of those parts of the body that we'd really like to keep for life. Here are some facts that will assist in this endeavor.

Prevent. Don't want to bust a cap? Make sure you're not doing anything to put yourself at risk.

Try to include yoga for increased flexibility and cycling, which is easy on the knees.

Tune in tomorrow for some more facts.
