Yeah I'm def gonna get some. Surprisingly I have pretty nice hands, even after doing landscaping and stuff. But I guess it's from all the handwashing and subsequent moisturizing I do at work, heh.

+1 And you don't really build muscle around the joints. Joints are surrounded by ligaments (join bone to bone) and tendons (join muscle to bone), which are fibrous, non-muscular tissue. You can strengthen the ligaments and tendons, but you won't build muscle there.

arthritis? what the fuck. should i go to a doctor?

i went to an ortho one time because i was having excrutiating knee & shoulder pain that came out of nowhere. like total stiffness and i couldn't move freely for over a week. he took an xray and was like, 'welp! it's not arthritis'

how can u tell that from just an xray?

*edit* actually it wasn't the ortho...it was the PA

well yea but it's common sense that if you build muscle tissue around ALL of that, it will help keep things in place more.

I don't think you necessarily should go to the doctor but you should definitely work on stretching. arthritis usually starts in the hands and knees...sometimes the shoulders. it wouldn't hurt to get the opinion of a doctor and certainly can't hurt you to include glucosamine (w/MSM and Chondroitin).

I'm guessing xrays can show where the cartilage and bone meet and if there are any fluids/lube in that area to keep those joints from rubbing against each other. Most bodybuilders take it to aid the recovery of their bodies while they lift with the notion that the quicker the recovery the more time they can go back in and build up again.

To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.
