getting in shape while being gentle on the knees
Ok, i came to college and took on an extremely sedentary lifestyle that's catching up w/ me. I am feeling the need to get back into shape, and lose 15 or so lbs, mayhap even get my butt back into single-digit sized clothing. problems being this:
#1: I'm way strapped for time. I attend class full time with a maximum course load to graduate on time, and work part time in a department store stockroom to pay the bills.
#2: i have bad knees. i played soccer up till my senior year in high school, and also have a problem who's name I forget, where my kneecaps get pulled to the outsides, which causes much unhappiness, and discomfort. In general this doesn't give me problems, but I can't walk too long, and i can't do stairs regularly. Flat surfaces are alright, usually, though.
So, what's left for me? I can't afford a gym membership, and besides my schedule varies so much that it doesn't seem practical, and I have no clue what I would do with one, anyway! any advise is appreciated...
