I'm a new member guys, so be gentle please.
I have been starting the new year off trying to get myself in better shape. As in the other post of mine, you may have seen that i am taking an eca stack. I have also been working out on a bayou fitness total trainer.
I can get a great workout on this machine for the upper body, but the lower body is lacking. I thought the machine would help me for the lower body, because i could only use a portion of body weight. It doesn't seem to help. I have an old injury to my knee (torn acl, and torn meniscus) that makes this very painful. Not to mention difficult to walk afterwards. I cant get a decent workout if i ignore the lower body.
If anyone has suggestions for things i can do at home, please let me know. I'm not a gym guy. Too fat for that (at least for now).
Specifically looking for lower body workout that is not going to trash my knee any more than it is.
Thanks guys.
