Message: [QUOTE="jimt_yz400, post: 157281, member: 21081"] Yes, I agree, I doubt that I have the disease since I am 39 years old. I do weight lift, one or two times a week, poweer walk the dog twice a week (2 miles each time) and I ride 2 - 4 times a week. This pblm started when I rode an eduro last June and I Harescrambled the last 48 miles. I just killed myself cause I left 10 min late ( I was waiting for my son who didn't finish). I then had pain in my rebulit knee( acl reconstruct). After that I've been riding mostly MX tracks to get into shape but the more I ride the more they are hurt. The walking is now bothering me and I've thought about cycling a little more but I was told that this may not be a good thing since it loads the patella tendon, especially if you go at it hard. So, not sure what I should do. I've iced them but it seems to have no effect, but maybe in the short term. I'll try to do some of the exercises that were recommended and see how it goes. I've lots of ached and pains since I've been very active for most of my life but this seems to bugging the crap out of me. You know one more thought, I purchased the Asterisk knee braces just after the enduro and I have been wearing them and I'm wondering if that is causing a pblm? [/QUOTE]
