Kneepads. I use them routinely. I do not wait until I know I will be kneeling. I put them on if I might. I was having trouble with sore knees a few years ago and went to them.

Distance runner here. I put em on when I'm going out to do yardwork, regardless of the specific task. I'm not quite 40, make fun of me all you want.

Punching through and digging out pavement for a centerline monument.?ÿ
There is more than one way to skin a cat.?ÿ One involves kneeling.?ÿ Others don't.
