Hey /fit/ my knees really hurt when I run and it's making hard for me to lose weight, anything I can do to lessen the pain?
Take a break from running and do some swimming. I promise if you keep running on hurt knees, it will NOT go away.

I'm fat though and swimming at my gym would mean swimming naked, any other options?

jesus. don't go running if you're fat, that's just asking for knee problems
lose weight first. losing weight starts in the kitchen. Clean up your diet you fat fuck

Try stationary bikes. Or if you're really fat walking on the treadmill. Best done while reading/watching tv.
But I'm on food stamps and can only afford skittles and bagels

Just don't eat. Or only eat rice. That's super cheap. You can live on rice for like 10 bucks a month.

>make smaller steps and increase your frequency, most people overstrike, which is bad for your knees!!
>learn to run on your midfoot
>loose weight obvsly
>buy shoes with more cushion/ thicker sole maybe do a treadmill analysis at a professionial shop
>go to doctor
>change cardio sport to biking, swimming
how long are you running, have you always been into sport?
>tendons and cartilages need a lot more time to grow/adept than muscles
MOST important dont run when your knees are already hurting!

You should be losing weight via diet anyway, fatty. I doubt you're doing anymore than 500kcal worth of cardio daily anyway.
Op here
I went from 296 to 254 so I thought my body could handle a little run but I guess my knees aren't up for it. Is the eliptical a good replacement?

dont run op.
Everyone knows cardio kills gains.
