| Hello Rich. In terms of using only body weight, which is better in building the legs, squat or lunges? And how should I do it? I understand that they are both bad for the knees.

| Hi James. First, why are squats and lunges bad for the knees? Is this something you heard? Do you have any evidence or research of this? Any exercise can be bad for you if it is not done right or not appropriate for that individual. Second, squats may be better for some people while lunges may be more beneficial for others. I can not make a broad statement that one is better than the other. I would look at the individuals current condition and previous history and decide which one may be better at that time. Down the road, the other exercise may be better. |
