best running shoes bad knees image
Kegger
I've been running a lot more recently and one of my knees has started to hurt a lot during and for awhile after I run. I plan on buying a knee brace to help support it, but is there any way to strengthen them so that it can take on my runs?
I'm already planning on buying new better running shoes so I don't need advice about that, thank you.
Also, I do realize that running is bad for your knees, I don't need any lectures on that.
Thanks in advance!
Answer
I had to have arthroscopic on both knees and was scheduled for a total knee replacement.
I started to exercise at the gym with the Dr suggestion. I use the machine as I sit and lift up the leg, and the next machine that I sit and pull down the leg with weights.
I cannot believe the change. I have stopped using a cane and occasionally a walker.
He did tell me to stop running although I feel so good that I just do a fast shuffle at times.

What are some good running shoes at a reasonable price?

My name is Stephanie and I'm 25. I recently purchased a pair of Nike Reax Run III shoes at $70 which is a reasonable price to me. They are the worst running shoes I've ever owned. They gave me shin splits and they also cause me to have knee pain which I never had before. In my opinion they are a very hard shoe with very little shock absorption. I was very disappointed to say the least. Can anyone tell me some names of good comfortable shoes with good shocks?
Answer
Honestly, most good shoes will run you between $90-$130. It sounds expensive, but that's the reality.
Depending on your location, your best bet is a running specialty store. The staff frequently know the shoes well, as well as biomechanics and can usually recommend a good pair.
Stay away from any Nike Shox, Nike Lunar Trainer or Nike Frees. They're all colossal wastes of money.
And if $90-$130 sounds like a lot, think of it this way: $100 spent on shoes you'll enjoy and use is much better than $70 that ends up in the closet.
