Go to a doctor

I think you might have overly extended your knees or done something off/ over loaded. Otherwise it’s not normal

Seek professional examination to be sure though

like

1. See a doctor
2. Look at knees over toes guy. - he has excellent videos on strengthening the most overlooked muscles (like shins) that contribute to knee pain, especially overtime.
3. Check your stride, step, natural waking motion (consult with doctor). I found that I over pronate naturally when I walk, and load most weight in the outsides of my foot which overtime has caused some issues with my knees and had to get special shoes to correct + bio correction of how I walk

Rest of the advices here are great. In addition to that, also ensure you stretch properly before and after your exercises.

Thanks this is a great advice

At 39, your joints have probably weakened a bit due to your age. I’ve changed my routine up now for similar reasons- back, shoulders, and knees. I do spin or swim for cardio and only lift 3x a week. Even though I don’t do legs anymore, they look better now than when I squatted do to all of the spin. If you’re running, definitely look at getting sized at a running store as they can do wonderful things. If the pain persists, you may want to see an orthopedic.

I will say that I started running regularly again this year, and have found that I need to balance it with a lot of leg strength training/biking to help reduce knee pain. Running is all well and good, but prepare for things to get achy if you don’t also stretch and mix in strength training to make sure all the muscles in your legs are being developed to help support your joints. Oh, I also have custom orthotics to put in my shoes which really helps comfort-wise. Godspeed!

Experience sharing on calories deficit -
I have a normal body build but want to lose a few pounds(especially around my belly). I am making visible progress now by eating less(work gets busy and I use that to forget about hunger), a lot of walking, have casein protein to feel less hungry. Diet is really what do the trick.
But there are drawbacks too - my energy level(especially around night time) drop significantly that the level of exercise I used to do feels hard (light/mid intensity)

Please share any suggestions you have below! No limits in terms of activity or budget. I have about 8-9 weeks that I plans to cover.

Had a scratchy throat yesterday that has since gone, low grade fever all day today (99-99.9). Have felt off and spacey today, and had a headache which went away after taking Advil. Have an appt to get covid testing tomorrow. Test is thru my doc office and they said they’d have results within 24 hrs. Even so, I currently have severe anxiety about all of it.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people.
