If weight loss is your goal then you want a program that combines reistance training with cardio.  Start out with a good weight training routine (at least 3 x per week) and finish with at least 20 mins of moderate to high intenisty cardio.  The cardio will burn calories while you are exercising and the resistance training will increase you muscle mass which will increase your overall metabolic rate, meaning you will burn more calories throughout the day.  \n\nLastly, you need to make sure that your nutrional program is just as regimented as your exercise program.  You can have the best exercise program but it won't get you anywhere without a good nutrional program as well.\n\nFor the best all-around program check out the link below for Rob Faign's book "Natural Hormonal Enhancement".

Do squats. It will strenghten you glutes and your core.

avoid exercises that result in repeat impact to your knees: jumping, running, jogging, etc. Try using an elliptical where you never remove your foot from the surface and you are using your thighs and calves. \nDespite the advice you may get about using weights or floor exercises, it's better for you to do cardiovascular exercises than to do things that will build up or tone muscle- you don't want big thighs right? You want to burn fat and maintain a healthy heart so stick with the cardio work up that will avoid further injuring yur needs. Swimming is great but not readily available. If you have access to a pool year round (and don't mind ruining your hair)- go for it! Otherwise, Try the elliptical.

Bruce just live, exercise is part of normal life. if you don't move enough your body will not work well. even going to the toilet is funtioned by good movement. you must find a good motivation, walking, running, cycling, swimming, I am disabled to certain degree 30%, but I try to move as much as possable, walking in the mountains cycling along side a river. I have to go to hospital next week for a knee replacement in the right side, unyet I spent a week looking after a friends dog, in a high mountain, walking, and enjoying fresh air, since I know what movement I have now, I will have the benifit after my operation. you must not let your muscles fail at an early age, you will be worse as you get older. enjoy life, exercise also gets a control on depresion, which if you are not getting out enough, I would say you are suffering with. you will enlarge most muscles and blood supply, which I am sure you know you need to enlarge****

Swimming is the best excercise for two major reasons.\n\n1 - It is a total body work out. All muscles are worked.\n\n2 - It is non-impact. Meaning your ligaments, tendons, and bones are not exposed to potentally damaging stress. Swimmers do not have bad knees or ankles or backs. Swimmers joints are not stressed in the manner that a runner or a cyclist or a basketball player would.\n\nYou can swim for life. 90 years old 9 years old 9 months old.

If your joints are strong and not prone to injury you can run some intervals first to get your heart rate up.  Run up and down the stairs starting with your left foot.  Then do it with your right foot.  Then walk it off for 30 seconds and repeat until you start to feel too much strain.\nFrom there start doing a bunch of body weight excercises.  Push ups, squats, lunges, crunches, leg lifts, etc. and keep your heart rate up in between by running in place or doing jumping jacks or something similar.

running does mess with you joints but it is one the best cardio work outs.  Swinning laps is also very good.  in addition watter arobices is very good.  weights are a great way to lose weight and to tone up.  low weights with lots of reps at least 20.  if you put lost of weight on you will gain mucel mass and that means weight and start to look like Arnold.

Jog outside. Go for 15 min spurts x 3, with 3 mins breaks inbetween.\n\nDrink more water.\n\nYour ab excercises sound good.

Some good upbeat music. I suggest getting an mp3 player if you don't already have one. you could also try doing different exercises like every 10-15 minutes then go back to the treadmill.

I do lots of lunges and squats. Aso plyometric jumping, (only for strong good knees) which is basically jumping up from a squatting position and then landing gently back into a squat, for the advanced you jump onto and off a bench. (table?!)\nFind a hill, walk or run up it, walk or run down. Repeat. Use poles for this if you like (it's great for your skiing form, makes hiking safer and better exercise). No hill? find stairs, can you do them two at a time? build up to it. \nWALL SQUATS.....You sit with your back against a wall with knees at 90 degrees as if sitting in a chair, only, there is no chair, your quads and hamstrings hold you up. Hold and feel the burn for as long as you are able. :)\nStretch. Drink water stick to every other day or 3 times per week. Create a set routine you are able to complete. e.g. one set,15 reps of each. Then raise it as you improve.\nHave Fun this Winter !!!!!!

I don't know how keen you are to try yoga- but it has played a huge part in my knee injury recovery. Try Iyengar Yoga, or Phoenix rising yoga therapy.

I think the treadmill, walking is really good for you. I suppose if you do it alot and for a long time, running could get hard on your knees, but walking shouldn't. \n\nThe best model would be one that folds up for storage if you dont have much room for one. Sears or walmart have them, but Sears would be a much better quality of treadmill.

Good sneakers and a well cushioned treadmill will reduce the impact on your knees.  Using the incline should be fine--it's usually the downhill running that is harder on your knees.  Obviously, stop running or walking if you experience any pain.  Consult a sports doctor if your pain is preventing you from running or walking.

there is no best "excersize", even if there was you couldn't compare them. Running is a good one though; Jumping rope and doing pushups is pretty good too.

Look at the wear pattern on your shoes - if it is uneven you may need orthotics \n\nIce you knees after running for 10 mins and make sure you are really warmed up before you run\n\nlook at knee braces if your knees are not stable and get a therpaist to show you how to develop your vastus medialis muscles \n\nfinally try and run on soft ground for at leats half the time or have aday off where you run in a pool instead of on the pavement

do variations of 4X40, 4X60 and 4X80 full-out. do rapid knee-lifts on-the-spot for about 30 seconds. football/rugby running is different from sprinting. also try reaction drills. check your running technique (eg knee lift)
