A member asked:
I'm 30, male, fit. will around 4.5 miles of cross trainer workout daily cause knee related problems? i feel some minor knee pain now a days?

Not sure: If u like to exercise and have no underlying knee problems; give it a try. Start slowly both w/ your pace, intensity and length of workout and gradually build up over a period of weeks. Overuse knee tendinitis will be less likely if u start in " slow". Good luck!
