Great great post - I too am old worn out bastido I’m 54 bodybuilding since age 12 , daily martial arts since age 5 and later 8-12 hours day along with major bodybuilding. I had my spine reconstruction and hips replaced from all the damage . Yeah sucks getting old but I love training and nothing will stop me . I wonder if my years of Motrin use contribute to my demise ?? Can’t say but I like the natural suggestions here I use tumeric caps , I think Fatty acids help joints as well as my protein is a multi - collegen with 5 types . Plus I am big user of glucosamine and chrondrotin hell I even sprinkle on my cats food lol ( per veterinarian) I’d be interested to see what others use .
