This is a reply to someone asking for helps healing their knees.
Enjoy!

Greetings.
The exercises given are great to create stability in the joint. I would also recommend some static posture training to see if it suits you...
you know, basic chinese posture drills, like holding a horse stance, or a wall chair (deep horse with back against a wall), doing deep bows and cat stances (not too deep, though). You can do upper body exercises and isolations and even applications.
Some people like this, others don't. That's ok. More for the options bag.
On supplements, I use my recipe for Ultra Gatorade. I got it from Doc LaTourrette's super water, except I add Gatorade powder.
You just get powdered vitamin C and powdered MSM.
put 1/2 teaspoon of both powders and add water. For better taste and to use it for rehydration, use the gatorade. Good precursors for collagen regeneration. Good for joints.
Also, peanut oil massages on the knees, for recuperation and rejuventation, for 10 to 20 minutes, morning and night, or after a good workout.
There's also the castor oil joint wraps... they've worked on me wonders.
All these give results within a week. So you loose nothing by doing them now and have a lot to gain by doing them. Or not.
Hope this helps!
Enjoy!
