Description
A good friend of mine is a world class triathlete. He won the 70-74 age group at the Ironman world championships in 2017 and has aspirations to repeat that victory in the next few years. Unfortunately, like many triathletes, he has also suffered some knee issues which are currently interrupting his progress. Consequently, we have spent the last few months chatting about options available to him and which (if any) offer the best chance of a return to running.
I have some inside knowledge here. In the last 15 years I've had 3 minor operations to remove damaged cartilage from my knees. After each op I questioned whether I could return to running and how sensible this would be for my long term knee health. To date it has resulted in me being a little more cautious with some activities, but I can still run. It seems I’m not the only one. When I asked my Facebook tribe for questions to put to this week's guest, we were inundated.
In this week's episode I’ll be chatting with Advanced Practice Physiotherapist and knee expert Damian Buck who works at the CoachHouse Sports Physio Clinic as we talk about the topics that concern you, including:
Busting some myths about knee health and running
How to keep knees healthy as we get older
The benefits of mobility and strength work, and the best exercises for you to do
Whether you should have surgery for damaged meniscus
Post-surgery recovery protocols
Which (if any) supplements enhance your knee health
