    Alrite lads, (sob story begins) recently been diagnosed with knee cartalage damage and am due to get an operation. :| (sob story over)

    I was just wondering what cardio activities I can do without too much strain on the knees... so without heavy running, i want to keep my stamina up but am unable to put long mileage in on runs at the moment!

    Thanks :good

    A friend of mine is doing a lot of swimming three months after an ACL tear... check with your doctor first though.

    Looks like swimming is my best option then. I'll check it out with the doc.
