Overcome Sports Pain After 40 - Are Remedies Available? Part 2

In Part 1 of this article we explored the desire of persons
over forty to experience optimal health. Optimal health for
most of us can be reflected in more active lifestyles.

Your efforts and goals to be in good shape that results in
better health usually will include working out and losing
weight.

Nevertheless, your best efforts to achieve the more active and
healthier lifestyle may be frustrated by chronic ache joints or
back pain.

We also touched upon the condition known as Osteoarthritis and
its root causes.

While you should always check with your doctor and health
professional before taking on strenuous exercise, below are
some tips that helped me feel healthier and better.

- Wear the Best Equipment to Exercise and Train

I found that wearing the best running shoes for my foot and
ankle type relieved a lot of stress in my ankles and feet. The
most expensive brands however does not always equate to the best
fitness shoes for your body type.

Nike shoes (some of the most expensive) where not my best
choice, a running shoe called "The Beast", about $125 actually
was the most supportive for a big guy. Plus I also invested in
good sports slippers by a company called "Keen".

My wife (a very frugal lady) was incredulous when I invested
over $100 dollars each for both a running shoe and slipper like
shoes to wear around the house. However these running shoes and
sports slippers are both comfortable and offer a lot of support
to my ankles.

I noticed my back and ankles feel much better after wearing
these shoes. To me the over $225 was a great investment in
supporting my ankles - knees - joints and back.

I noticed my running was pretty straightforward training. On
the other hand basketball or sports with a lot of lateral
movement challenged me with my knee condition.

Therefore, when playing these exercises I ware strong Ace
fabric knee braces to support my knees.

You would be well advised to wear good supportive sport
equipment and products when training for a sports or your
active lifestyle after 40.

- Try Supplements for Nutritional Support
For years you may of heard of joint support supplements like
Glucosamine Sulfate and Chondroitin working wonders for people
with Osteoarthritis. I have used these products with good
success.

Within days my joint pain, especially in my knees, are greatly
diminished. Leading alternative and traditional wellness expert
Dr. Andrew Weil M.D. advocates the use of Glucosamine Sulfate
and Chondroitin to help with joint support problems.

The best product that I have personally tried to help alleviate
my knee and joint problems with my challenging workout goals is
known as Phosoplex. It not only diminishes my knee pain, but my
knees feel very stable and strong after using it a couple of
weeks.

Phosoplex lists both Glucosamine Sulfate and Chondroitin as
active ingredients but also includes Biocell Collagen ll as a
cutting edge ingredient. Phosoplex is purported to use a
time-released formula that is longer lasting than traditional
Glucosamine supplements.

I don't know all the scientific mumbo jumbo, but what I do know
is it helps my joints feel a hell of a lot better - especially
on damp rainy days. Combine losing weight, good sport
equipment, eat healthy foods, and try some good supplements like
Phosoplex and see if your joint pain is greatly diminished.
