Before I had my knee surgery I was 195lbs and for the 1st time in my life I could run a full mile. Unfortunately I shot back up to around 22Xlbs with being laid up for 3months then not being able to do shit. Im back down around 215 now, and looking to hit 205 or so. Also gotta start running again, but it feels wierd with the dicked up knee lol. Yeah I don’t think I ever did a mile since after high school… $hit, only way I was running in college was to the Mickey D’s 2 for $2.22 Sausage McMuffin w/ Egg special, or to a panty raid… Oh wait I went to RPI so you know I’m lying about the second part. One thing I noticed though, when I do lift I don’t need much of a break between sets and my 2nd, 3rd set is almost as strong as the first. I don’t lift weights much or very often, but the improved endurance does have a positive effect on strength as well (not on max of course but more with reps). Maybe try swimming if the knee is messed up? Elliptical is another choice too… --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/progress-thread-94gt5-0/248135)._
