 Poster: A snowHead
|
I’m 6’1” and 18 and a bit stone aged 31. I have a little bit of a weak right knee (I wear a support to play rugby and have done since I was 17) But I’ve never had sore/ stiff knees after skiing? Am I doing something wrong?
I started taking Glucosamine tablets a few months ago and now after a game of rugby or a hard training session my knee is OK no aches at all.
Just wondering what knee problems people have with there knees while skiing?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Frosty the Snowman, Kicked the summer well into touch today. Had all my plans for the winter signed off, big effort! It might as well just snow now! We're ready! Mount those PUREs. Feeling the best i have for some time. I'll try not to do a PARLOR this evening!

II, You only get problems with your knees if a) you're in a bad position; or b) you have a pre-existing injury that's affected by flexion. Your lack of trouble will (hopefully) suggest that your basic position is pretty good, and that'll be why...

A previous thread on Glucosamine/Chondroitin can be found here but in usual fashion tracks off topic about 3/4 the way through.....

I evangelised about Glucosamine to various people at the EOSB (I'm a runner too, which is great for knees...)
Sounds like you've already had success with it though.

I had a touch of Osgood-Schlatter as a teenager. Too much time on the White Lady as a youngster. I still have a lump on each side below the knee, above the shin.
