#91: Back to Heavy Lifting with a Cranky Knee – My Story

Getting back to weight training with a knee that was swollen, stiff, and too painful to bend isn’t easy, but it is possible!

In this episode of 40+ Fitness for Women, I share my experience working around significant knee limitations and slowly building back strength and range of motion - without risking further damage.

Tune in as I discuss:

• The step-by-step approach I used to train safely with an aging, worn-down knee
• Exercises and modifications that kept my muscles strong while protecting my knee
• How listening to your body and making careful adjustments can help you progress, even with setbacks

If you’ve been wondering how to balance building strength with a sensitive joint or old injury, I hope my story can inspire you to keep moving forward safely and effectively!
