Cernunnos Posted June 9, 2020 Report Share Posted June 9, 2020 The frequency, distance, intensity, the posture of runner, the way the feet lands. Incorrect running postures and methods and trying to overdo for beginners (when body is not used to certain frequency or distance) can be damaging but overall running should not be an issue if done correctly.

yoyo74 Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 Dont run on rocky terrain, slow down if you think too much pressure on knee, dont jump too high when running. There are a few regular runner in my running group already in his 50s so i guess its not an issue unless u got weak bones problem or some health problems or push it too hard.

Kardwo Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 (edited) Thanks for sharing your thoughts! It's true that opinions on running's impact on knees can vary. While some believe it's not harmful, others may have experienced discomfort or injury. It's essential to consider individual factors like form, intensity, and pre-existing conditions. For those concerned about knee health, using a knee brace for meniscus tear could offer added support and protection during physical activities like running. Taking preventive measures can help minimize the risk of injury and promote long-term joint health. Edited March 12 by Kardwo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atwork Posted March 19 Report Share Posted March 19 When your legs do not have the muscles to cushion the impact from running, it will rely on your knees when you run. Thats when it is bad for knees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenpoh Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 (edited) there are many factors involved. individual biomechanics, training habits, and pre-existing conditions, etc. for eg; if someone is overweight, older, and rely a lot on running long distance to lose weight, then this may be bad for their knees. if a person is healthy, does a balanced workout, trains sensibly, eats well and sleeps well, etc - it is common that incorporating varied runs regularly into his routine will strengthen the muscles and tissues surrounding/of his knee, and is generally at low risk of negative effects to his knees.

yoyo74 Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 So far i have already run for 9 years for at least once every weekend around 5 to 10km each run. I have maintain my weight more or less around 58kg for the past 10 years. Running pace start at slow speed and only sprint at the ending part. Now slightly more than 9 years have pass and i am almost 50 years old and my knee still feels ok. I almost never do any warm up or cool down start or end of running. I believe knee problem is due to weight of the person or the food the person eating. All those talk about long running wearing off the soft bone of the knee i dont really believe in them. Only the thing i do personally than i will know the truth Ann_Onn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strategicthrust Posted April 1 Report Share Posted April 1 Recently, I've experienced this issue where my left knee (outer side) will start to hurt after about 10 minutes of moderate intensity jogging on the treadmill, and it gets worse till I have to stop around 15 min into the run. The pain goes away after a day or two of rest. I've never had this issue in my life and always had no problems running whether on a path or treadmill. No pre existing conditions as well. Should I be concerned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derren Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 Running and jumping are basic human movement skills. Use it or lose it. It is good to work on these skills to maintain them to old age. Never work through the pain though. Pain is an indication that something is not quite right. Perhaps posture or technique is not ideal, perhaps the joints have been overstressed, perhaps need some mobility work, perhaps need to work on more strength in certain muscles. Try to find the root cause. May need the help of trained professionals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
