What kind of workout would be good for injury-proof joints? I know people will say that high-weight low-rep squats are good for knees, and others will recommend titanium ankles.

If heavy weight squats help strenthen your knees, then why not heavy weight shin raises? And if countless bodyweight shin raises twice a day help strengthen your ankles, then why not countless bodyweight squats?

What is the most effective way to get "injury-proof" joints?

You'll probably injure yourself doing heavy weight lifts without preparation, haha. Struggle produces a hardier frame. (Low-medium weight and high reps)

Steve, I haven't seen you in awhile! It's a pleasantness to see you again! :smile:

Hmmm, that would make sense. I never had any knee problems when I went to TKD, but now, after not going for a few months, my knees are becoming sensitive. Maybe it's because I'm not doing endless squats and endurance work.

My knees are invincible.
