  • question
    Hi, my doctor says I have a torn meniscus, my knee & not to exercise but I can have occupational therapy until I decide to have surgery.
    That doesn't make much sense to me.
    Some days it hurts to walk & other days I feel normal unless I bend it.
    Other than walking, do you have any 'gentle exercise' ideas that any of you have done?

    Thanks & have a Great week!

  • MiniDoodles - I’d say gentle yoga avoiding anything that puts pressure on your knee or would stretch your knee a lot. Perhaps a yoga DVD?

  • Quote: My target's for July are:
    1) Do knee strengthening exercises that i got from physio, at least 5 days out of 7
    2) Do at least 2x cardio sessions per week in first two weeks of July, and 3x per week in second two weeks of July
    3) Start regular push-ups/core exercises

    .
    July 1st: Bike ride, physio exercises, 2x dog walk
    July 2nd: Physio exercises, 2x dog walk
    July 3rd: Pilates beginner class! Physio exercises, 2x dog walk
    July 4th: Physio exercises
    July 5th: Bush trek 1hr, physio exercises, 2x dog walk
    July 6th: 2x Dog,
    July 7th: 1x Dog, physio exercises
    WEEK 1: Physio done, cardio done, regular core not done....
    ………………………………………..
    July 8th: 1x Dog, physio exercises
    July 9th: 2x Dog

    Basically I haven't been doing anything proactive the last few days, which is naughty! It was super windy this weekend, so bike riding didn't really appeal. But that's no excuse. And I never really got in to my core strength ambitions last week, but tonight another Pilates session is scheduled, so hopefully nothing will distract me from that at least....
