Knee-friendly workouts that make you sweat?

palindrome · 04-06-10, 08:10 PM

I'm looking for workouts that really make you sweat but are easy on the knees. Any suggestions?

My knees always felt better after doing the Fitness Fix videos and Tracie Long Training videos. Good workouts and functional fitness that helped my knees.

Some of the faster, more advanced Leslie walking workouts are good for this. Also, Charlene Prickett low impact workouts. A lot of kickboxing workouts are good for this too.

Margaret Richard's workouts have actually strengthened my knees. No lunges beyond static ones and plenty of floorwork. I've had knee problems since childhood.

I do easy to moderate cardio, and have added Fitstix and boy, what a sweat. I was not even using my arms at all- elbow wrist and shoulder problems and the Fitstix have been great - no pain at all. The two dvd's that I got are also great -The Fusion one and Cardio- but were challenging for me! but I am just really loving all my old dvd's. I am getting great workouts!
