TheRoseWithin~Shannon Posted January 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Thank you so much! Suffice to say for now, increasing leg strength makes complete sense to me ... I bet that's it. My legs are definitely out of shape (I have mistreated my poor knees!), and yes it felt more like my bone was affected vs. actual joint. I am still not sure though. What I did find odd was that the inside of my knee is painful to touch. I have more questions to ask and will respond in more depth later today. I'll also watch the video before responding as well.

TheRoseWithin~Shannon Posted January 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Thank you so much Azatol. Your experience is appreciated and I will act on what applies definitely! It was important for me to share that I appreciate that you do not come across in a 'It's worked for me. It will work for you" attitude. I've noticed, via many posts, that you recognize and acknowledge that we are each different. Your experience, honesty and humbleness, I deeply appreciate. Love it! You make it easy to engage and to absorb! Thank you!! I watched the video. I have not tried the leg exercise. It looks like it would hurt my knees - like it would place a lot of stress on the knee itself? I will try it out after this evenings walk - yep, I took your suggestion on walking. I have also committed to walking on my off days. About my knees (to give a bigger picture): I have a difficult time squatting down and then getting back up without pulling myself up via the counter, (so embarrassing to admit as I let myself go). Also, my son was here yesterday. I had no idea what planks were. Now that I know ... I want to try! I'm going to walk for now and add running as I can. It did feel a tiny bit better yesterday, so that's good. Achy even as I sit here. I'm going to look up how much walking strengthens knees later today - for support and encouragement. **** Update added: W3D3 - Complete!! gnik1 and KellyAnn 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRoseWithin~Shannon Posted February 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 I am still alive - just in case anyone missed me ... LOL Computer will be gone for one more week, (I suck at texting responses from kindle, so I am waiting for my computer) and then I'll be back regularly to check in/update, AND check up on your YOUR updates - can't wait!! I've missed reading and being inspired/motivated from updates, and contributing/responding as well! Hoping all are doing wonderfully well! CHEERS!! gnik1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
