I do understand that women have a different experience than men in tech, and everywhere for that matter, regardless of age. I'm sorry for this, I didn't create the situation, but I live in it. I want to be part of that solution. That's not what I'm going to discuss next, though. Working out with a bad knees and back is not that hard, and is really common with runners who started in high school. Extremely common in fact, especially with road runners. I see these people in the gym all the time lifting weights because it's so low impact, while at the same time being a primary defense against osteoporosis. Nothing that you do can replace it and I would strongly encourage it after talking to your doctor.
