[QUOTE="viviennem, post: 185097, member: 31282"] Does cycling count as high impact? You could try on the exercise bike at your gym and see how it affects your knees. When I can afford to go to the gym I also use the pulley system where you lift weights either standing or sitting, or by pushing pads together. Sorry, don't know what it's called :oops: . If you're doing plenty of walking, lowering your carbs should certainly help shift some weight. I'm a bit p***ed off at the moment because the doctor would love to refer me to the gym to save me money, but the gym say I can't go on referral because there isn't a qualified instructor on the premises! :roll: I've had the induction and am okay on all the equipment I use; I also have a designed exercise programme! Presumably I'm allowed to die by myself if I'm not referred, but can't be trusted alone if I am! :shock: Viv :) [/QUOTE]
