[QUOTE="sugarless sue, post: 1169, member: 1210"] I also have a dodgy knee but not so bad that it needs an op!I started out with chair exercises using weights.0.5kg wrist weights to start with,I'm 55 and not that energetic!,now I use 2kg weights and can get up to 100 repetitions on a good day.Avoid step exercises like to plague!!they really do your knee in.How about getting a friend to walk the dogs but you go with them?that way you can still get you exercise without being pulled by dogs.Hope this helps.BTW using this exercise regime and a low GI diet I have lost 2 stone so I must be doing something right!:) [/QUOTE]
