Some of our astute followers have noticed me slurring my words. I am not drunk but working with Brad it would be justifiable. I had 6 infected cysts removed from my mouth (noncancerous) and I have residual scar tissue and numbness. I will try to do better. Thanks Bob.

Hey! Just in time. I do have a lot of cracking in the knees, non painful thankfully but I would very much like to get rid of it.

[pineapplecrushme]

So glad you made this video. I think I have the patellofemoral problem. Had it since my late 20’s. It would hurt off and on but since putting odd angled leverage on my legs hips and knees lifting my grt aunt it hurts when I bend it and grinds and cracks terribly. Thank you.

I liked Brad's explanation of cavitation. And I liked physics class, too.

[ashlee]

Posterior elbow dislocation recovery + long term precautions! Please I need it

[Pedestrian_A]

I have this since I was a little boy. As I learned more, I started to worry that it might develop into a painful damaged joint. I have started doing exercises to improve my hip mobility and strength. There is no bad things happened yet. But I have to do something about it.

[bradleyamor]

Straight off I want to say Bob you look really in shape so more so than you were, your arms look bigger. No wonder all the exercise you do .. I have clicking in my ankle , where I used to get injections for a while for a buffer . I don, t get injections anymore but still some times get the click.

[smallfootprint]

You guys are great. Love the info, and done with humor.

[joseenoel]

When trying to squat, sliding down my back to the wall, top of knees are giving rigid click, really a cascading sound both sides 🙏 bless you boys!

[EskimoLady]

My knee has been clicking and snapping for about 15 years and at times i feel pain and fall down about once a month. I, m not that old. From lifting heavy weights. Stopped heavy lifting about 10 years ago.

[JustBreathewithRachelGreene]

You have just explained so much about knee sounds that I often hear in clients - they always want to work through it - I think limiting range of motion to keep pain away is the ticket. Thanks, Boys!

In my forties, my knee seemed to click and pop at the most inappropriate times, like while touring a building during a job interview. It popped off and on during my thirties and just got worse. Then, it just stopped as I approached 50. I will be seventy soon, and it no longer clicks or pops.

[kathyfranco]

My husband's ankle pops.. he says there is no pain or swelling.. but he is always popping it. Would this be the same explanation as for the knee.. no pain or swelling no worries???

[rolannebouchard]

I have all of the clicking, popping and grinding In my right knee.I'm terrified to have knee surgery and I'm only 50 so the surgeons don't want to do it until I'm on the other side of 60 because the surgery only lasts for 10 years?? Let's hope technology gets better soon!

[paulaliberty]

Bones farts! I can sound like a bowl of Rice Krispies...the struggle is REAL.

Last Christmas I was told to stop taking Naproxen. Two days later my neck locked up. About 2/3 weeks later mid morning with no warning my knees refused to bend. 10 months later I need two new knees. My neck has freed up following your exercises but I get pain inside the skull at the back of the head caused by movement, Car journey or just moving the head back and forward. Warning to all do not take Naproxen for extended periods. I took half a dose for 10 years due to whiplash injuries.

Why someone get, knee pain when someone sprains their ankle trying to walki.Thank Bob & Brad

[Drinkyoghurt]

Bob, and Brad.. I've had a knee injury from one time where it got overstretched. After I dislocated my other foot and became bed bound, and after starting to walk on crutches 3 months later I noticed that that knee, and sometimes the other would dislocate, and when that happened the tendon would get really painful. Even if it was a brief dislocation. I noticed that doing squats made the pain go away completely, but due to the lockdown I couldn't train anymore and it came back. Could this also happen from weak quadriceps? I feel like mine are just too weak to keep the knee in place. From what I know about joints (elbow, knee) it's that they don't do anything and any issues they have come either from above the joint (quads, hamstrings) or below the joint (calves). Is that correct?

[hippieschick]

Started in my knees..now hip snapping...eeek I hate the sound...I wish I could make it stop
