Start with 5 burpees inside a minute then rest, 2nd minute kicks in, repeat. Do this 10x. Gradually add the number of burpees that you can do in 30 seconds. The standard would be 10 burpees in 30 seconds then 30 seconds rest.

will incorp some burpees after the run

metabolism+genetics also plays a part, if i did that at best I can only loose like 2-4kg then maintain.

These days, to maintain I just skip rice all together, mostly eat veggies and some meat for dinner.

Cant really go for long distance jogging...my stamina can keep up but my knees easy sore ( has to do with my weight im sure), so im just brisk walking, push-ups and squats for now...topkek

do you think you would need the knee support thing? am considering one for own use especially will feel something (not pain) on knees when/after descending from hiking. but not sure what to look for in a good knee support

The knee guard is useless. I have similar issue. First it was my right knee feeling slight discomfort when descending from hiking. Gradually i started training intensely, doing squats everyday / deadlifts etc. Then i started to feel pain on the same knee whenever i tried to do squats / bend my knees (with load/stress). Eventually my PT advise me to consult a specialist.

Went and see a physiotherapist, and found out my pelvis / knee / ACL alignment out. So have to do treatment and adjust back.

ok will monitor after including more deadlift/squats in weight trainings. previously do weight training then now more on cardio running outside (not much weight training). but have not felt any pain on knees yet during weight training. after/during descend in hiking, felt a bit of discomfort but not pain. but goes away the next day.

no sound on knee/kneecaps when doing extensions too, luckily sweat.gif

Careful, if started to feel pain better stop training and consult a specialist otherwise slip disc will guarantee happen

will start low and slow weight training for reps first. not doing anything heavy for sure. sweat.gif priorities still running/jogging first for me. but thanks man.
