bushido_man96 Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 I think that running has such a high impact on your knees that after so many years, it does break them down.I am not a runner, but after 13 years of TKD, my knees are starting to suffer. They ache right now, just sitting and typing. I find that they start to bother me when I drive for extended periods of time. As your body gets older, overtraining will start to wear on your joints, and your could actually regress as a result of overtraining.If you have access to one, try to get to an elliptical machine. They are great for me, as I feel no impact on my knees at all. Try it in place of running, and see what happens. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black0ps Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Life is about balance, sit and meditate a couple of those days that you run. The sitting will balance the running and you will be fine again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
