Gets some good shoes and start walking--start with 15 minutes then keep adding 5 minutes until you are walking at least 40 minutes a day. I am 54 and I walk 4.5 miles a day. It helps with my depression and after a while, you will start enjoying it. When I started walking after being in the hospital--I forced myself even though the "bouncing" was painful and it hurt my knees. (They had weakened from being immobile in the hospital or IP for 25 days.) Once I walked for a year, the walking strengthened my muscles around my knees (I have osteoarthritis) to the point that they hurt less and movement helps my joints feel better.
