Okay here's a question. Finding plenty of good options for padding my knees. Is anyone using anything special that helps get back up ?? Ref. Bad knees.

Currently, when I want to get low I have to remember to consider what is close by to grab onto.

After an operation, I used an adjustable hiking pole to help pull myself up. With the grip around shoulder height kneeling, I could lift myself up off the ground. I had no strength at all in my knees for months. I could barely get out of a chair without the hiking pole.
