What to do while dealing with runners knee (lemmy.one)

Basically, I took on too many miles too quick. And boom knee pain even when walking now. I don't want to stop moving entirely, but I'm just not sure what I should be during this downtime. I'm pretty new to running so only been doing it for about 2 weeks and I'm a little heavier, so it probably beat my legs up. But I love running and don't want to give it up.

I did squats and deadlifts the other day and BIGGEST issue is keeping my glutes tight. Every thing else does what it's supposed to during the lift but my glutes are just not keeping up

I hear you, man. I have super weak glutes, so I’ve made it a point to focus on that booty when I hit the gym.

You mind if I DM you? I have some more questions, and I don't want to fill up an entire thread with my dumbness.

yeah go for it. No idea how messages work in Lemmy, so good to test it out.
