welcome to the dungeon bro

LOL...thats cool, my lower back crack when i do deads...& my knees crack when i do squats, just a little wear n tear. nothing major till u start experiencing pain along with the cracks, that'll be your que to check em out

take fish oil to keep joints lubed, you'll find that these help a bit.

My knee has only cracked once when doing squats. I didn't think much of it. The next set I tore my meniscus. It was only moderate weight, and at the time I thought I was using perfect form.

Get someone who knows what they're talking about to watch you squat, you may be doing something wrong without knowing it. It's pretty hard to offer useful advice without actually seeing you train.

I crack so much I sound like a bowl of (Rice Crispys) no matter if I'm lifting or just adjusting my weight at times when I'm just standing there.

I use: MSM with SAMe

It's an Amino Acid to treat arthritis and the SAMe is to reduce disease activity, pain, and morning stiffness.

Gives you some wicked gas tho but worth it, just don't forget to take it on a regular basis. Ramp it, then level off.

Also try Certo. (google it) I was told to give it to my older dog to help with arthritis pain and he is now attacking our younger dog for all those times he picked on him when he was in too much pain to do anything.

They just play hard. I take it as well now in a sports drink.

Most of my joints crack but there are times when I get an uncomfortable wet-sounding crunch noise coming from my knees. I normally just rest them until they stop making the noise. At the moment I take Cod Liver Oil, Glucosmamine Sulphate and Chondroitin and that seems to have eased a lot of my joint trouble.

My knee's crack durring deep squats, but I had many years of being over weight so the poor things are jus beat. They have since cracked less and have even begain to be less noticable as time goes on and the weight loss keeps going. Jus my two cents to add.

Beefcake, your not a drug dealer? damn O well

anyways, my knees crack and are very painful but it is because there are now two screws in there thanks to a torn ACL. My Doc says it should go away eventualy but now I have a torn Meniscus in the same knee.
