I got about three minutes into it when my knees said, "F you,
Charlie!"
The rest of me felt pretty good. It's going to take me a while to
work
my
way into it. But I like the machine. It is very smooth and there's
enough
going on to maintain my attention.
If your knees can handle the treadmill, they should be able to handle
the
elliptical, but the motion is different and it takes some time to get
used
to. I found that little or minimal resistance settings are worse than
a
moderate amount. Too little and my coordination and timing gets
messed
up.
Little bit each day ...
I use a treadmill and I hate it - my knees hurt like hell.
Oddly, when I walk through the woods along the old
logging trail, I'm fine.
Go figure.
Try adding a daily dose of Glucosamine HCL(1,500 mg) and Chondroitin
(!,200
mg) twice/day (2 tablets each time). This combination is designed to
lubricate the bone joints.
Both my wife and I have used this for the past 2 months and we have both
noticed an improvement in our joint pain and flexibility. We use the
Costco /Kirtland brand.- Hide quoted text -

I hate to tell you this, but the improvement is mostly in your
head.
G&C has been proved not effectual in testing and actually
does nothing for your joints. The only way to improve
joint lubrication is to inject hyaluronic acid or a new
type of biological compound whose name escapes me
at the moment.
For minor arthritis, which is an inflamation, asprin or
other pain relief usually works better. For arthritis like
I have, the treatments get intensive and expensive.
Synvisc, made from Chicken Cockscombs. Expensive, but mine has lasted 6
years.
