[QUOTE="Lpart, post: 1495174, member: 25642"] I think with the proper attitude and patience you can get it done. The mental aspect is as important as the physical. I would do a lot of leg presses and goblet squats and there is no substitute for the rucking and the use of trekking poles.. I did an Alaska sheep hunt in August at age 69 and after having 31 surgeries including 5 surgeries on my knees. One of those was a total replacement. I can't run up the mountains like I could 30 or 40 years ago but I got it done and enjoyed myself as well. Took it slow and easy and relied heavily on the trekking poles. I cannot emphasize their importance enough when you have bad knees. I have been told that their use can reduce the stress on the knees 30% [/QUOTE]
