I’m aware that losing weight will help alleviate that pain but I feel like I get in a vicious cycle of trying to lose weight, hurting my knees, having to rest while they heal, then start all over again. Do you have any recommendations for at home exercises that are gentle on the knees? How can I get my partner on board ? I’m excited for your 60 day challenge, but scared if my husband isn’t on board it will affect my results with all the junk food he eats and lack of exercise. Low key ways to encourage loved ones to try resistance training/any kind of training? If I increase my calorie output before/after a night of drinking will it at least mitigate the negative effects on gains/fat loss?
