Losing weight really good at this point and walking 2 miles a day. But, I have rhumitoid arthritis and my knees are hurting...bad.
Are there any great videos or excersises aimed at legs?
I have lost 20 pounds and have 50 more to go...

Winsor Pilates Buns & Thighs DVD targets the legs all from lying down, mostly on the side, leg lift type exercises.

Can you ride a bike? A stationery bike might be good for you, it strengthens and tones the leg muscles which support the knee. Easy does it at first and increase tension gradually.

Eliptical machine puts less stress on knees. Biking and/or roller blading might work also.
