Athletes for the most part have two things in common with most other athletes.
I'm an athlete myself so I am fairly familiar with this. Also, many of my friends are the same.
Firstly we put our joints through far greater stress and wear than most non-athletes put their joints through and secondly we all think we're built better than everyone else - ie that we're not going to get health problems as a result of the sport which keeps us fit and strong.
See, this is why most athletes DO end up with joint problems.
I'm writing this as a kind of note to myself.
I need to realise that I'm a human too - that I'm putting my joints through hell, and I really should look after them.
I don't want osteoarthritis!
