Hi thar /fit/

before i begin: 193, 6'3", medium framed (just in case).

Im 22I had LCPD in my left hip when i was young, i had to use this fucking metallic thing in my leg for three years, then i got better and stopped using that shit.

Years passed and i lived a pretty sedentary life (i couldnt play sports as a child so i never really got to like them), i got pretty overweight (not obese).

One day, i got invited to play soccer, and booy, those were the hardest 5 minutes of my life, it felt like my heart was going to explode or something like that, i was SO ashamed of myself that i started to do some walking and jogging just to be able to be a little less bad at soccer, like 1 year after that i changed my lifestyle, i walked a LOT (about two hours a day), i played soccer and i went to the gym for 4 months, i also started eating more protein, less fat, etc, so i lost a considerable amount of weight and i achieved a small but noticeable increase in muscular mass, but with a cost.

(to be continued)

Eventually, my left hip would start complaining at the end of the day with a small continuous pain, it was very small so i ignored it at first. Once it got more noticeable, it was time to go with the doc.

I had some x-rays done, the doc saw them and he told me that i would develop osteoarthritis in my left hip because it didn't heal properly and its misshaped, i'll eventually need to get it replaced through surgery. The more i use my articulation, the faster it'll be.

This meant a goodbye to jogging, squats, soccer and intensive walking, which eventually led me to start gaining a bit of weight (which i shouldnt get back, i should stay as lean as possible in order to keep weight away from my hip).

The question is, what cardiovascular activities can i do in order to stop gaining fat weight without fucking my hip in the process?, i've heard that swimming is a good choice but i dont have pools nearby.

Thanks for the help!

tl;dr im developing osteoarthritis in my left hip, which cardio activity suits me?
