Knee Problems and Weight Loss

Could it not just be that your cartiledges are wearing away mate?? Thats what has happened with my knees and the give me jip.

If so get some Glucosamine and Chondroitin tabs,help me out no end:thumb:
 
well i went to a specialist yesterday about my knee problems. Im a carpet fitter so on my knees all day and i think this is the main reason i have knee problems but the doctor says otherwise.

He asked me if i exercise, so i told him about my training and straight away he blamed my problems on squatting (which i haven't done for a while) and the fact that i weigh 100kg which he said is to much and i need to loose weight.

He then went on to say i can do some leg exercises like leg extensions with moderate weight, but i thought that leg extensions were bad for your knees :confused:

If im honest he was a **** doctor didn't look at all interested and answered his phone and was on it for 10 mins while i was sat in my boxers like a lemon !
