The best ill do on a treadmill is a fast walk on a 12% gradient for 20 mins.
And that is boring as hell!

Don't mean to scare everyone with the arthritis talk, just saying as a forewarning. Remember also, some might mistake it for lactic acid build up (aka soreness) in your joints from working out. It's natural to have sore joints, but like anything else in your body it needs repair. For everyone good "work out routine" there has to be an equal recovery routine. Kind of like a pre-work out routine, some stretch, others focus on breathing or eating or preloading supplements.
Think anabolic/catabolic states, focus in your metabolism, and find a good repairing remedy (supplements). This may be a lot from a fitness freak stand point, but it doesn't hurt to educate yourself about it. You'll end up on the side of precaution though, it's a good thing to know what works with your body. And the old adage, we are all different, really puts this into perspective. Go out and try it, see if you notice a decrease in soreness/cracking with glucosamine. Try different proteins to see how the taste and results work for you. You have to pay attention to those things to really evaluate what works for you or not. And like most, you don't have to take any of this seriously and just do as you do....some prefer no supplements, others do, ultimately it's up to what your goals are and how motivated/determined you are to getting them.
As for chondroitin - i wouldn't say it's critical but you should definitely wiki it to see if it's what you want.

ps-I run 3.5-4miles so that makes me a freak lol
I only agreed because cracking, otherwise known as crepitus, and slipping IS a typical sign of osteoarthritis. But Jamie didn't say anything about pain or stiffness (the major symptoms of it), and it WOULD show up on an x-ray...so I'm sure she's fine. Though it never hurts to see a doctor again, just in case.
Something sort of on topic: I hope you ladies are taking a calcium + vitamin D supplement! I mean, unless you're getting enough in your diet (I don't, so I take Caltrate).

People can do what they want...but I prefer to take it, especially after working with old people and seeing first hand how crippling osteoporosis and arthritis are. I don't want to spend the rest of my life (if I get that far) in aching pain, or breaking my hip or some shit.
also a lot of the food u already eat has vitamin D fortified into it, and its usually in excess in the body. absolutely no need to buy a vitamin D supplement. Multivitamin is all u would need, and even that can be excessive.
The supplement companies want u to think u need to purchase many many supplements u just don't need.
I said calcium + vitmain D (meaning calcium including vitamin D). Not two diff. supplements.
I'm well aware of the way companies scheme...but I'm not an idiot, lol. I don't just buy it because they tell me to.

| Originally posted by get nyce That's for the general population and I agree hence the marketing of products in any of the health industry. It's the in your face tv ads for herpes, viagra, any of that stuff that is masked with soft music and happy family scenes to give you that sense of security that if you have a problem, buy our product and you can live just as happy as the people you are watching. Same applies to the supplement industry, and again for the general pop, yea you may be getting the necessary nutrients in your daily foods. For some though, who watch their caloric intake, monitor HDL/LDL levels, and are pretty intense when it comes to health and wellness fairly depend on these supplements to attain certain goals. Don't get me wrong, I'm not fist pumping the jersey shore or take decka shots in my shoulder. For me it's natural fitness for an active lifestyle that i choose to live. You only catch me really on TA sitting infront of the computer in the winter time and during work hours. I make it an absolute must to be outside as much as possible, and probably 85% of the time, it's by myself as a loner doing as i do. It's not that I disagree with you though, there has to be millions of types of proteins, various generic (gnc/vit shoppe) vitamins and supplements out there. It really just depends on your lifestyle as mines has changed significantly over the past 2 years and continues to evolve every day. |

LoL, it's not Lupus! Jesus.
what happens if u have osteoarthritis? does it make you crippled if you are old?
i'm going to GNC today to get that glucosamine & a calcium supplement
omg u guys stop it, i'm already a fucking worrywart as it is
Osteoarthritis pretty much sucks. It's general wear and tear on and around the joints...and it can happen to anyone at any age, but it gets worse as you get older (obviously, the more you use your joints, the worse it gets). It is definitely debilitating. Hard to move, stiffness, pain, etc.
But really before you freak out...see a doc!
Chances are you are fine jamie, no worries. I wouldn't go crazy over it, but maybe practice adding glucosamine to your supplement shake. Then just keep it in the back of your mind over the next 2 weeks. See if you are noticing some results. As of right now, a good bench mark is to do an action that will cause alittle bit of pain, or flex the shoulder where it's stiff. Write it down on a piece of paper and put it on your fridge. Go at the glucosamine for 2 weeks and then go back to the paper and try it out again. Do the same set of stretches and actions that caused the pain then, and see if it's still reoccurring.
Chances are it won't as pain and stiffness is alleviated naturally by your body, but keep it in the back of your head. Continue on the glucosamine and see how long before your next episode in those areas.
