I posted a topic about running a few weeks ago. I am a newbie at running, been having a go and my knees are hurting so bad. Does anyone have any other exercises they do to tone up. Had my daughter 14 months ago and im wanting to tone my legs, bum and stomach. Well actually everywhere if possible I have lost 14lb, but still have another 20lb to go.
Thanks xx

    Have you tried the Slim in 6 DVD workouts? They're great and loaded with TONS of squats and lunges. I was sore for days afterward but it's amazing how quickly your thighs and legs get so strong. I'd recommend that one. :)

    Have you tried cycling? You could put your daughter in either a bike mounted seat or in a trailer you pull. i can't run because of knee issues but cycling causes me no trouble at all.

    Great exercise and fun with the bonus that it will definitely tone legs, thighs and abs.

    walk! walking is great. I lost 30 pounds just walking 30 minutes a day. just make sure you get your heart rate in the 80% of max so you are in fat burn mode.
