Knobby knees are part of a person's bone structure, and the best way to get rid of them without surgical procedures is through leg exercises. Aside from strengthening and toning the legs, these exercises also increase the overall mass of the leg muscles that stabilise and support the knees, making knees look less bulky. These leg exercises done at least three times a week will get rid of knobby knees.
