Pilates are not the best choice for someone recovering from a knee injury. Some of the exercises actually put considerable strain on your legs and joints, and it is hard for novice exercises to identify in advance which exercises are going to put strain on their knees. The best activity for recovering from a knee injury is swimming. You can still get a good workout and exercise your muscles, yet no additional strain is being put on your joints. Of course, ask your doctor for the most effective exercises while you heal.
