Hello All!
I am training and preparing for my first pilgrimage at the end of April. I'm a little concerned about my knees, with all the long, multi day hikes.
Can any of you recommend a good knee support product, exercises, or supplements?
Here is what I am doing now:
1. Losing weight to take pressure off my knees, back, etc.
2. Doing exercises to help strengthen my knee muscles.
3. Taking Glucosamine and Omega 3 Fish Oil Supplements.
I have a knee support brace, but it digs into the back of my leg!
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Bob
