[QUOTE="Adikted, post: 1369687, member: 91925"] Try using the elliptical trainers that use both your arms and legs to keep your calorie burning up while taking some of the stress off your knees. I lost 70 lbs last year via diet and exercise (used an elliptical 4 days a week) one of the things that I had trouble with once I started hiking was descents. The elliptical going forwards works your climbing muscles alright but when you start going downhill you realize that you need muscles in the sides of your legs that you aren't accustomed to using. When you're feeling up to it, start working short sections of back pedaling in on the elliptical it will help. Starches are the devil, that's all I'll say about diet. [/QUOTE]
