Show Notes

In this episode, we talk about how to continue with your strength training even when joint issues enter the picture. Because living long enough means aches, old injuries, and arthritis eventually show up. Jim explains why your joints have a shelf life, how most exercise undermines them to reach the muscles, and why isokinetic training does the opposite—protecting and even strengthening your connective tissue. If joint pain has ever made you want to quit, this episode is for you.
