The *Neijing* (Inner Canon) states: The waist is the mansion of the Kidney. If turning and shaking the body becomes difficult, it indicates that the Kidney Qi is about to fail. The knee is the mansion of the tendons. If flexion and extension become difficult, and walking requires bending forward, it indicates that the tendon Qi is about to fail.
