I currently have a damage ligament in my knee so looking for any ideas for exercise or workouts that is suitable for me. I do weights and currently started turbo training on the bike as these are low impact. Is there anything I can do (except swimming - I'm like a brick) before I get bored doing the same stuff? Much appreciated.
Feel free to add me for motivation and support ☺️

    Have you heard of the at-home work out programs PiYo and P90? You should check them out. Low impact and good for stretching (especially PiYo)

    Tai Chi. Burns 300kcals an hour. Not much but you'll be chilled out and have improved yourself physically in many ways.

    I've not heard off either of your suggestions but it's certainly something I'll look into. Thank you both for commenting

    I just purchased PIYO because I needed a break from the high impact. It's a Pilates/yoga combo so you get more of burn and a couple of the videos are even cardio based. I've read of a lot of people doing it with injuries so it would be worth a try!
