My knees have been terrible for a long time. Walking up stairs, walking in general, squatting down, all hurt. Got an x-ray done a while back and showed signs of osteoarthritis, told to lose weight basically. I'm in the process of losing and hope that will help. For various reasons (time, money), physical therapy isn't an option but I'm looking at youtube videos to strengthen calves, hamstrings, quads, glutes etc to try to take some pressure off my knees, but from what I am reading I don't know if that can FIX the knee pain or just sort of not make it worse. Has anyone had success with losing weight and strengthening/toning/etc so that they don't have knee pain anymore, and can do whatever like even running, squatting, etc without pain? I know we're all told that losing weight will fix all our problems, but is that actually true?
