If i was you Clubber id start a stretching routine, and start taking a joint supplement with glucosamine, chondroitin and msm in it. It will help with any cartilage damage.

I was just about to go out and get both of these as was experiencing terrible joint pain in the knees, and quite persistantly. But was also in the process of switching my road training from jogging and sprints on a paved road...to strictly tabata sprints that I now still do on a grass and earthy path.
Been fine ever since.
In fact, I went and jogged one day just for the hell of it and knees started hurting immediately.
Thats weird cuz i jog and have no problems (knock on wood).
What are tabata sprints![]()
"AKE THE TABATA TEST If you think you've got what it takes, here's the drill. First, do a five-minute warm-up by running, cycling, or jumping rope for five minutes at about 40% of your full effort. For the intervals, work on a track, treadmill, stationary bike, elliptical trainer, or a heavy gym bag, and alternate 20 seconds of activity at full effort with 10-second rest periods. Each sprint-rest combo counts as one interval. After the intense section, do a five-minute cool-down in the same way you warmed up. Try to do four intervals at first, then gradually work your way up to six. Repeat the workout three to four days a week."
So this doesn't apply to just running. It can be used for training on a heavybag as well?
hitman try strengthening your forearms, and also stretching them, rope with weight disc, wrist curls and maybe try the powerball i have found it good in the past, also stretch em out v importante!
The rope with a weight disc is called a wrist roller and is a great workout.
The Tapered Wrist Roller and it doesnt have to be tapered btw..lol any bar will work, preferably a thick one.
