Since i've been about 9 my knees have dislocated hundreds of times, i've had 3 operations. Now i get pains all the time even when i'm sitting i need to have room to stretch and stuff (cinema is agonising sometimes coz u can't really move),

hit me hard mentally and physically over the years, but just something i gotta deal with. got 2 massive scars too if ur lucky i'll take a photo and post em !

no thank u.

dislocated knee sounds ming. that sounds serious mate.

u got me beat there, mines just tendonitus. nothing that ice and brufen cant remedy.

I kno exactly wot u mean regarding the cinema, im the same. i cant sit still at all. gotta keep moving. went to watch dave spiky not long ago and my knees didnt appreiciate the seating arrangement. i sat there biting my lip shaking in pain waiting for the interval. as soon as the lights came on i shot up n stumbled to the hall way. i was soaked in sweat, my shirt was now see thru n stuck 2 me. got alot of strange looks and the missus refused to stand with me.

Cinemas, a big NO!! But for me, my wrists are much worse

Nick: Can you/do you do any leg work ? Any range of motion not cause you pain?

IMO, you can still get a great upper body workout, working from the hang (starting at the 2nd pull, just above the knees) or pulling from blocks etc..
