Noliatb, it may be better for you just to walk for now til your knees get better cause the squats will aggravate the problem and then not be able to walk. I don't do squats anymore cause of my knees but I do a lot of elliptical cause it targets the thighs and butt without killing the knees. It also burns a ton of calories!

Just wanted to add that with pain on both of my ankles, sciatica(pain on right buttock) I am still walking, climbing stairs and doing stomach crunches. I won't let my pains get me down. I am a heavy set woman and joint pains won't stop me from my fitness efforts...So, If I am keeping on, So can everyone else!!

Fitness makes me happy,joy happy!!!! :)

It may seem silly, but I make sure to park as far away at the mall and and grocery stores ... walking in any form is a great way to start!

Saturday evening..did 15 min dancing and broke out in a sweat!!! I am loving this!!!

I will not give up!! :) (((((((((((((group hug)))))))))))
