Anything that is not weight bearing as the others have said - upper body weights, crunches. I'd check with your doctor about swimming or walking in water first - you may need to have an initial rest period so as to not agravate it more. As it heals, these are probably great forms of exercise. Check about cycling too :0)<br /><br />Luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923813049383285532.post-33593067108479832442009-08-09T22:30:27.744+10:002009-08-09T22:30:27.744+10:00I hear ya!

I recently did my knee skiing (medial collateral ligament) and was on crutches for 8 weeks and I just had to flew from Dubai to Sydney and return with a it and it was HELL!<br /><br />My specialist and physio have both said that swimming is the best (particularly wading/walking through the water and swimming on my back (and kicking)).<br /><br />If not, then doing some weights and low impact light cycling can help too.Roohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13340778893952565352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923813049383285532.post-47856827654723510222009-08-09T20:30:50.179+10:002009-08-09T20:30:50.179+10:00definitely water activities and since it is soon s...definitely water activities and since it is soon spring then that is just perfect!!!2010https://www.blogger.com/profile/00195721733605822330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923813049383285532.post-28298635133396606682009-08-09T17:59:16.051+10:002009-08-09T17:59:16.051+10:00Hey gorgeous!

From someone who's had knee problems (including Bursitis) for the last five years I can very much relate!! <br /><br />Things I do:<br />Swim with a float held between my knees - so just with upper body. It's the BEST workout<br /><br />Boxing, even stuff on your own like doing a pretend speed ball above your head for 10 minutes, it's awesome!<br /><br />Upper body cardio like the arm-cycling machine.<br /><br />Gentle walking, try upping the incline on the treadmill instead of increasing the speed.<br /><br />Lots of weights and abs!<br /><br />My knee has good months and bad months. Sometimes I can run on it, sometimes I can't even bend down to pick something up. I avoid the rowing machine at all costs, that seems to be the worst for it.<br /><br />If it's any consolation, when I weigh less it bothers me less, so hopefully it will ease up as time goes on :)Kenzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06558372734630649269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923813049383285532.post-90187512059479061352009-08-09T11:14:36.532+10:002009-08-09T11:14:36.532+10:00Ask at the gym but also check with your doctor.

I totally understand your fear, that is how I feel too.<br /><br />I would go swimming and do some gentle recumbent bike work and use the weights machines until your knee is better. A week or two should do it. Plus I would wear a support bandage for generally moving around.<br /><br />Hope it gets better soon (and your ability to pun, lol)!Fat[free]Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09657562694069139967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923813049383285532.post-42423149092463245572009-08-09T01:56:43.637+10:002009-08-09T01:56:43.637+10:00Have you seen this?

Also, what Pandora Woman mentioned about the abdominal and upper body weights is a great idea - use machines rather than free weights as they are more likely to hold you in correct form and if you are seated, will take all of the pressure off your knee.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08229478994519987395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923813049383285532.post-49339623162843731152009-08-08T20:28:56.860+10:002009-08-08T20:28:56.860+10:00Swimming is fantastic.

LOts of machines there will work your torso, triceps, biceps, obliques, lateral obliques (abdomen muscles), back. <br /><br />Go an ask some one there for help. Most of these machines will allow you to sit down and dont use your knees.<br /><br />As for swimming. I swim 3 times a week at least. All done without moving my legs at all. I do so on purpose because my leg muscles are big and strong enough as it is. It trains my shoulders, biceps, triceps, back, and gut.<br /><br />If you just keep to it for a month or so, it should give your knee enough rest. The advantage is, it will keep you going to the gym, so you don't lose touch with that routine. <br /><br />My gym has a wimming pool too, so I can do all in one place. <br /><br />Hope this helps.
