yea, my knees and elbows have been acting up lately, when i walk and crap my knees hurt, and when i work out my tricepts my elbows hurt, should i just take it easy for a week, or is there a way around this w/ no side effects?

thanks in advanced.

I was feeling the same thing last week after I got sick. I just rested and I got better, except my right knee, I've been having problems with it for a while and it hasn't gotten any better. After I've been sitting for a little while and I walk or whenever I try bending it as far as I can, it just hurts like hell for a while then it becomes tolerable.

I suggest just rest for a couple of days and see if it gets any better. Just don't do anything really intense and you should be fine.

It's probably overuse. Rest, most definitely. But it also likely has something to do with some minor detail in your form on whatever exercises are aggravating it.

yea, and i'm guessin' it's also becuase of my weight, haha, i think i punish my body a little too much.

sucks though my muslces can take the training, but my joints can't, i feel like an old man. damn. :sad:

This is why periodization exists. Rest it for a week Wakka.
