That’s hard on my knees what’s a good exercise to do for weight loss with bad knees
I have poor balance, is t there a way I could do this while having one hand holds onto something? Ty!
How many should I do ?
It is very good to learn this, especially if running is painful from back issues, ha
Young man, this is not good advice.
It’s very difficult for you young fitness enthusiasts to scale up for time. And that’s for your own regimens and in how you advise others.
After 28 years of running and 10 years of “reverse lounges”, the “reverse lounges” begin to cause weakness right above the knee caps in both knees.
I had to stop doing this workout in volume altogether. Forward lounges are great. But the knees were not meant for that reverse movement in high volume.
Originally I thought the issue was caused by lounges, then after further investigation I found it was specifically the reverse motion.
And after 28 years, my run is still going very strong. So is my heart 😊
But if you quit running then you quit that invincible feeling you get after running for 10 minutes. You know that feeling where you don't want to stop running. It's addictive.
If you re a runner you know what I mean.
True. I can't quit running
I can't quit😂
I'm 77, been running for 50 years now. I love that feeling, heading up a hill, mouth closed, smiling, a car drives by and I feel like a stud 💪🏃♀️🏆
I can't quit running
I’ve been running for over 30 years and have no plans to stop. It’s a perfect mental and physical exercise and I love it🏃♀️💕
I'll ADD THIS to my running program.
Never stop running!!!
NEVER!!!!
Never, I will never quit running. Running is not just an exercise it goes way beyond that, my mental health is in good shape because I run, not just my body!!!
Awesome. You’re so right.
Some of us run for mental health and comradery not just for the exercise.
"danglebraith"....I so agree, however running is no longer an option, hence this method. Soooo you continue your way & we hope your knee's do not suffer the consequences due to bad rodes, streets, etc. At least you know there are options 😊
Yup, yup this! There are some trainers who would call bs on what he’s saying! I run for about 12 min, then I save the rest of my energy for weights and walking etc. But running (on my small treadmill) helps me maintain my weight, as well as helps my mental health. Especially when going through tough times. My knees are stronger too than before. I don’t get knee pain anymore (got that a lot when I was not running). But I also switch out my sneakers and I don’t run outside (not suggesting that’s bad though). I’ve been running for a few yrs now. I also work out my glutes, which to my understanding helps with knee strength. I’m sure this exercise he’s recommending is fine, but it seems it can be hard for some and yet a lazy way out from doing cardio. I would say try both, if you can’t run I say walk. Best
That's not true. You cannot lie just because this is the internet.
@@user-bv7mk8id5tthere are alot of i, i, i... in your speech essay...some people listen but dont hear.
This guy is clueless in the full benefits with running. Great movement for pre run warm up though. . Appreciated.
I run because I love it and I hope I’ll never have to stop.
I've been running since I was 6. I'm now 58. Nothing wrong with running
I run every single day and it makes me look younger than my age .
Not stopping anytime soon.
This is one of the dumbest block I have seen....
I've been running for 31 years. Not going to stop anytime soon.
"lynnegrove"....great for you. This doesn't apply to you then. Hoorah for the rest of us 😊
Yas! You shouldn’t stop!
nobody is telling you to stop!😂
Never quit! I did on the Dr's advice and regret it!
No need. And to suggest that people who can't run properly do a lunge is pretty silly. That's a much easier way to injure or stress the knees.
Stop running what a ridiculous statement
imagine
It's just to grab your attention and it obviously works!
Yep hilarious .. agree.
I thought the same thing as my orthopedic surgeon just told me THIS MORNING to find an alternative to running and my HIIT routines after the surgery I had this past Wednesday. I literally cried. I was not trying to hear about the elliptical, exercise bike or swimming. LOL However, he now has my attention, so once I finish PT, I am going to definitely see if this routine gets added in with Pilates and the dreaded walking.
This guy is a clown
It’s a great idea specially if we’re stuck indoors for whatever reason: weather, working from home, etc..
I love running 1month from now I feel good all the time 😊
I guess that exercise would also improve one's balance.
This exercise made my heart rate speed up beside struggling to keep my balance. A very good alternative to running especially if the conditions outside is bad.
Runners run even when its not easy, regardless of weather. The meaning of true motivation and dedication.
@@user-gi2ho4ku6zYes but safety is important also. Please be motivated but wise.
The best running is when the comdition is “bad” outside
Running is one of the best for your heart
That's some dope BSing, I'll give you that.
I won't quit running 😅 love it...
As a 16 min 5k runner that never had an injury, running hills are the number 1 best exercise for cardio and will work out your legs. No need to worry about running form.
Thank you❤
Im not even "a runner" (yet!) , but your comment makes sense! Id rather get from A to B while exercising too
Don't quit running. That's additional exercise...
Not worrying about form can lead to injury, its quite common. Your experience will not apply for everyone.
If I run on the treadmill I always always have an incline.
Yes 5k took me half hour but it was uphill the whole 5k.
Shout-out to the angry runners for giving the post a great deal of traction, so it could get to people like me, who actually needed this.
Love the Service this Channel Provides! Outstanding ❤❤❤
I love this form of exercise and I thank you for protecting my joints. God Bless!
The reverse lunge is what threw my knee out, so not sure this is the best alternative. 😔
Sometimes if we are too over weight we can’t do this workout or if we don’t have proper form
@@IAmPhasionthat is totally a problem i face....... every time i feel motivation for getting healthier and fitter i try different exercises like jogging, dancing , kickboxing etc..... all seem to make me 'worn out'. I guess it is cuz my overweight puts burden on my joints and screws my willpower 😒
@@thegivpmn9565 have you tried simply walking. Walking is the best form of exercise. It gives you mental clarity and burns calories
@@thegivpmn9565there are tons of exercises appropriate for people of larger weights, please don’t let that discourage you. perhaps find a trainer specialising in people with excess weight and look for exercises online etc that specifically target that and take into account the additional strain that joints of people with excess weight experience. especially lower impact things like cycling, perhaps
Check out the channel Squat University! The guy is a physical therapist and offers stretches and recovery/mobility movement tips! He's awesome! Many ppl claim they got to bypass surgery after finding out it was a simple yet specific stretch they needed to do as part of their routine! ❤
I love taking walks, & when alone, breaking out to a run… that’s never bothered my joints. Unfortunately it’s the hiking, lunges & squats that typically do it. I just need to be more consistent with actual exercise, & as others have mentioned, this looks great for balance & indoor workouts:)
Excellent exercise. I used to do this when I was younger.
I'm 86 and can't do this, but I'll keep trying. Thanx.
Meeee toooo .
May I suggest to try this near a chair to help you as you gently go down? I'm a senior n that has really helped. I stated with not so low n not having my leg/foot go back that far back. Little by little I've been able to go back farther n etc.
What’s your secret to good health? That’s 8 decades
Lunges are actually not a wise suggestion for him to make for everyone. Too easy to end up injured. For seniors I find doing chair squats is beneficial. Start by standing in front of a stable chair, slowly sit and just before you would touch the chair, slowly rise back up. Keeps the form good, is a functional exercise to work legs and glutes and if you're fatigued you have the chair there to catch you. This can also be done with a buddy to hold your hands and assist you up and down of your glutes aren't strong at the moment. 😊
@@Kinesiology411Thank you❤
Thank you im over weight and hard to walk far this is working.
Thank you this is very helpful because I have back issues. I will try
I’ve been running for 15 years but I also do these reverse lunges and they most definitely have helped with increasing the strength in my legs and my balance. Do it.
Best on internet for older people. Thanks a lot.
AGREE.
TOTALLY AGREE
I enjoy running.
"sandyschaefer"....if you do not have the issues or concerns most of have, then continue what works for you right? At least you know there are healthy options. 😊
One can never have enough of this and is so much more complete. ❤❤❤
This is a Godsend as my orthopedic surgeon JUST told me THIS morning that after he repaired my meniscus and a few other things in my knee last week, he saw some wear and arthritis. So, at 57 he recommended that I replace running with the elliptical, exercise bike, etc. to prevent additional wear. I literally cried. So, now as I recover and think of what I am going to fill in my two-hour morning exercise routine when I get the greenlight, I am definitely going to try to incorporate this in. Thanks!
I just had the similar prognosis but my problem is my left hip. Went to the physio as I’d started to get out of the car like a 90 year old lower back and hips stiff no internal rotation of left femur. An MRI later and I’ve been told arthritis in my hip requires a hip replacement and I’m not a candidate for stem cell chondrocyte therapy. I’ve had to give up running and been told to hit the bike and elliptical too. 😢I’m 51! It all feels muscular though and my ITB is irritated. Perhaps the arthritis was there for a while? I was running 10k this time last year. The issue came on all of a sudden.
Benefits of running:
Improved cardiovascular health, builds muscle strength, increases bone density, lowers blood pressure and cholesterol, reduces stress, burns calories, can improve your mood and be social, but don’t do it cause you don’t have the proper form of putting one foot in front of the other and will get hurt. Instead do step backs, I’ll call them reverse lunges so it sounds like I’m a trainer though. You can work your quads and that’s it 👍
Those are the same benefits of walking and walking done properly, doesn't hurt your back or knees
Reverse lunges with weights will increase bone density better than running.
Walk up stairs instead.... Less injuries than doing reverse lunge that requires good knees.
Thank you. Reverse lunges with weight are cool but can in no way replace the benefits of running. Those who run know.
@@sylvia7447 Yes, because lunges are for strength.. Not cardio.. :D
Can you show this exercise with people with bad knees
"ginah6301"....I too have bad knee's, ankles n arthur in my feet. I started gradually, not so low, feet/leg not so far back n literally 4 a set, lol. Little by little, I've improved. Please don't forget to tighten comfortably your core aka tummy, to protect your back.
Lunges are not a great idea for people with knee issues. Half squats are less stressful.
I disagree. Lunges are much easier on my knees than squats. I suppose everyone needs to find what works for them.
@@linjubar as a trainer who works with PTs, lunges are putting more weight and pressure on the front leg than it would push against while doing a squat. It's the same right angle but takes more of the workload on. If a squat feels less comfortable, it's likely that the stance is too wide or narrow, or it isn't being done properly.
@@Kinesiology411you're right, lunges also hurt my knees.. i do squats and still run for cardio 😊
Thank you! I can't run anymore due to my hip replacement. This exercise is perfect for me.
Thank you! This is better than plain squats especially for us old folks who’ve lost muscle strength from being sedentary
I will definitely will try this especially for my heart.😊
It’s always great to dissuade people from doing a beneficial exercise. 👍
How is ruining your knee's beneficial?
Running hurts the joints, hence not beneficial 😮
Actually running strengthens your knees.
In addition it can burn calories like no other exercise, and does wonders for your mental health.
I think youre running wrong buddy 💀💀💀@@FemiNelson-sb1em
Cool
Fully agree with you. It’s an underrated exercise. Very helpful.
Try the speedy lunge jumps for an more advanced effect on your heart and legs. Good in a mix with squat jumps, heel lifts (as slow and controlled as possible) and knee jumps too.
Was in great shape all of my life. let myself go from 60 to 65 years old. I’m trying to get back and I think this is a good move for me.
Try begginers yoga via a BOOK, not the computer.
Remember, the library needs all the visitors it can get!
@@Alan-71351nonsensical comment 🙄
@@Alan-71351 sounds like a great idea. Thank you.
I can't get down that low, but I'll give it a try
You can do anything , don’t give up
Neither can I
I can't either.
Just start where you can, with each time your knee's will stretch, strengthen n you'll go as low as you feel works for you. Please don't forget to tighten your core/tummy. That truly helps.
@mariareilly4588 Try abit at a time n you'll surprise yourself. Tighten your core/tummy as well to protect your back 😊
Hmm, said I, as I ran ten miles each day.
Running is great. Keep running!!
Thank you! Literally, I'm starting now!
The back (or any) lunges are the worst for me! And I hate doing them because of my knees. I used to do them way back… but I know very well that they are very beneficial 🌸
Silly to stop running - however, this can be a good exercise for running!:) indeed, strength training is important to prevent injuries as a runner:)
Thank you ‼️God Bless You Amen ‼️❤️🙏🙏🙏❤️✝️👑🩸🩸🩸🔥🔥🔥👏👍💪💪💪💪🖐️🖐️🖐️🖐️😇🤗💯
AND your body will love you. Dr Mandell.
I'll stick to running my guy! Not so sure doing this will get me away from a bear attack!
He’s not forcing you to stop 😂…do you!
I started doing some of the exercises you recommended for lower back pain and i gotta say, they work really good! So I'm going to start incorporating them into my daily stretching/exercise. Thanks for this advice as well. I've always hated lunges, but will start doing them now.
Can't believe that I started doing it and felt my heart rate raise 💪🏻💗
Thanks for this... Due to injuries I have a hard time running because of the hard impact.
Thanks. Sadly, I can't run, so will try this instead.
Same here. Big difference 😊
*”I did one and almost could get back up because ya know, getting older sucks” 😔 - MELL DUNEY 616*
do it slowly...bit by bit you'll get better.
You are adorable! Thanks for sharing this with us here on RUclips!👍🏼
This is great advice, I find running difficult as I get older and don’t like the wear and tear on my joints👍🏼
This is great for all the wildfire smoke days we've been having in our area, where we have been told to stay indoors. And I haven't wanted to run due to impact, but when I do, I try to do much of it on grass. I was at the zoo recently, & they had padded concrete in areas, sort of like cork, on inclines. I noticed an immediate different in my body to walk on that soft surface.
High impact exercise builds bone density
This exercise is high impact & great for those of us that can no longer jog or care to jog out n about or a treadmill. As a senior, I also take Vit D3, Magnesium & Calcium of which my COH Dr has approved of. 👍 😊
Actually low impact strength training is ideal for building bone density 😊
@@FemiNelson-sb1emYou might want to add K2 to your vitamin cocktail.
@@patriciaobrien6600🤓🤓🤓🤓
@@austenhead5303 Yes, Vitamin K2 is said to keep plaque from forming in your arteries because it directs the calcium to your bones instead.There are studies that agree and disagree to this theory, however, I noticed I stopped getting plaque on my teeth when I started adding K2 to my supplements!
I can see the value of this in addition to running. Waaayyy more fun, running!
Yes running makes me feel amazing
❤❤ yup that Best exercise coach tyler
I did this all week, nowI'm invilid
Awesome! Great share! Low impact, less chance to get injured
Don’t quit running! Do this AND keep running! 🏃
Great movement and idea. Thank you!! Also… I love your joggers ❤
Thanks,Coach. Always new and inspiring suggestions. 👍🏼🙏
I love running! You can't beat that
The captions move too fast. Or perhaps you need to speak a bit slower 😅
Thanks , sir my right body is weak but I'll try this exercise. Hope i can 😂
"user-nz"....take it slow, you'll have get stronger.
Sprinting in quick short sets will also give you that burst of energy and endorphins without all the wear and tear of running.
I run because it is my "me time"... Running has pros and cons but for me I love running and I love ppl who run ... Runners are some of the best ppl in the world.
Endorphin buddies around the world 🌎 stand up!! 💪🏾🙏🏾❤️😘😘😘😘
There was at 1 time a professional bodybuilder, I think it may have been Tom Platz, who is well-known for doing walking lunges as cardio
I find both the reverse lunge and the walking lunge more friendly for creaking knees than any other variations
It will not take long until we see people injuring their knees doing this.
Brain check ...it doesn't affect knee ... Forward lunge stresses it ... Don't need to tap knee ... Lower as far as it doesn't cause pain ... Build strength and muscle slowly and then you can go lower
. My knees gives out. How Abt a chair to assist. My granddaughter assistance is beautiful when I do this. Thank God for grands. ❤❤🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thanks. Good prep for sprinting.
Because Pilates is the only “sport” that equates doing weights. It’s everything! I truly appreciate you very very much friend! Your form and explanations are perfect🤌❣️
Thank you. Doing this on regular basis will also help us gain control of our balance.
I will do that and still run because it Connect me to nature i breath healthy air .i Just Love Connected to Nature
This is true. I run many times but no results. Then I begin to repeat the exercise.. my legs my calf’s gets shaped and became really stronger.. I do it home when i move from the leaving to the kitchen in stead to walk.. hahaha my kids were looking at me.. mama you are taking it seriously! Very nice ! We are proud of you 😅.. hard but efficient.. then it’s just become a habit now.. I took rest those months.. 🎉
What about the cardio part?!👀
Were u listening?
Wow you are clueless. the exercise itself IS the cardio!!!! You don’t know that your heart rate will go up while doing lunges??? Smdh
Not suitable for me with a big belly, obese and knee issues but I'll give it a try anyway; perhaps while holding on to a chair ?
If you're obese and have knee issues, do NOT do lunges for cardio. To get cardio benefits, you should be at a (comfortably) elevated heart rate for 30 minutes (almost) every day. If your heart is racing the whole time you're exercising, or you're killing your knees with each and every lunge, you are NOT going to get the cardio benefits you need. Look for a lower impact exercise that you can consistently do 30 minutes of each day. It could be going to the pool, using an elliptical, or even just walking.
Try walking up slight incline
@@yay4yoyos many thanks indeed for your reply. I'll take your advice and start at my level on a rhythm I can sustain. Thanks for the support.
@@fintan9218 good idea in fact. My street has some light inclination. I usually take the bus for 1 stop to walk it up because I am always short of breath but perhaps I can walk on a slower pace and see how it goes. Anyway , thanks
@@odegasheru9991 walking up slight incline is great(one of the best in believe)low impact exercises that burns calories if you do it enough. Yeah dont feel rush, important to at least do what you think you can manage. Hope you’re having a good day ✌
Tried it. Got my heart pumping faster!
Thank you. ❤❤❤
I can't touch the ground with my knee anymore
That's really interesting! I used to run 4 miles a day. I took me six months to work up to that. And then one evening I was coming home and I stepped in a pothole and twisted my knee. The knee heals but I can't run anymore. It starts acting up. As long as they don't run, regularly like I was, it's fine. It occurred to me that there might be a reason why they push the running thing so much. The truth is, it's really hard on your body. Everything rolls around and comes loose. Like a trailer on a hitch? Take it down the road and it's like an earthquake all the time. So this looks very interesting. I'm looking at swimming pool stuff just because it's easy on the joined but I can do this at home. Thank you!
Did you warm up and stretch after running?
Also, I had knee pain amd it went away with yoga.
This is great because you're working on balance, too.
I hadn't a knee injury at the moment but as I heal I will remember this one
Thank you. Great and safe exercises.
If you have proper form but this makes your knees hurt, what would you recommend?
I had knee pain after running for like 8 years. This year I saw a physical therapist and after 5 weeks of about 10 to 12 daily stretching, band exercises ... (reverse lunges were one of the exercises) my knee pain is gone for 3 months. I still do the exercises but once or twice a week instead of every day.
Love the feeling of running so much more then this though!
Yes I do HIT 5x a week,it has been proven that is the best for the heart,I love your videos💚
It is one of many forms of exercise along with running that’s “proven” to be good for your heart..
Unsubscribed.. that was a dumb thing to say about running 😅😅
Ha! Good timing. I'm about to move and put my exercise bike in storage. I'll do this instead + walking.
This is true, I am a marathoner and do this during my offseason ❤
Nothing's like running doing it all my life it help mind,body,heart an soul,it give u a great feeling,let u focus,let d bloodflow
This is helpful to me as I am still recovering from major injury and am still not strong enough to run quite yet but I am working on it
I'm going to try to show my endocrinologist this because she's who I see for osteoporosis. I'm not taking a prescription because of the side effects. She wants me to do weight baring exercises but I also have degenerative disc disease & not allowed to do anything too heavy. I'm allowed to carry items but they can't be too heavy for my spine.
For someone like me who hates running, this is great advice 😂
So glad i came across this. I subscribed to your channel. I can't imagine me running. 😂😂😂😂
