    If you have access to a pool, that is a good alternative, especially if you incorportate water "weights" or fins. Also bike, elliptical, resistance. If you are carrying excess weight, as that comes off, your knees will also feel better and you may be able to increase your intensity some. If you don't mind me asking, what was the injury? And you can always ice after working out which will help pain in the knee.
