it can be hard on the knees, that's why it's a good idea to vary your cardio up

i find running ok but it is very harsh on my knees if i do it for a number of consecutive days... i try to run on grass if possible rather than concrete.

buy mixing up the types of cardio i do i can mamage to go running every so often without crippling myself!

You need to chat with my girl, she just does not see it that way. In my defense, I'm restricting my carbs so I can't be wasting energy on cardio.
