are there any exercises you can do to prevent sore knees while runnung ?


Question:


Answers:
You can try cross-training with biking to strengthen your quads and hamstrings. That might help with your knee issues. Also make sure that you are wearing good shoes and the right type for your feet. I tend to get some pain when my shoes are wearing out.

Don't forget RICE for pain--rest, ice, compression, and elevate.

Knees hurt. Stop running. Change to another sport..

Stretch before and after any exercise. If your knees ache ice them down after exercise and take some Bayer aspirin. Please consider speaking with a sports medicine dr.
running is tough on the knees, so I am not sure if there is or isn't, but I do know that I have heard people give it up because of their knees. I have been running for 20 years, this month. I would hate to give it up, so it would be best to research your options first.
A dr. of this type can tell you if you have the correct sneakers, need to lose weight, running in the correct position, etc.
Good Luck


Maybe you could go to a gym and try an elliptical machine instead, there is no impact on your knees. Well there are ways to alleviate the pain. You can depend on yoga which will alleviate the pain in knees.

But, I suggest you to change to another sports where the impact on your knee is considerably less.

Of cousrse you can rely on ellipticals which wont give much stress on kness.

Have a nice day.
