I have bad knee pain. I have had an xray and MRI. Both show things are fine. They say Arthritis. I know its not. My knee gives out and clicks (painfully) constantly. I can not run. Anytime I do, it kills my knee. I am doing some Insanity but modifying a few of the moves. When I lift, its fine. Any other Cardio you can suggest that might not hurt my knee?! I am willing to give it a try. I'm waiting to get into a specialist.

    My right knee acts up on me a lot too. Giving yoga a try and hoping that's my answer. Ask me in a month or too and I'll let you know. ;) Best of luck to you!

    Hot (Bikram) yoga has been a lifesaver for me! I feel very strong and more flexible and you get a cardio workout because the stretching is challenging as well as your body works hard (burns calories) to keep you cool in the hot room.
