my brother was psyched he could finally run after his knee replacement- was too painful for yrs prior

I agree- A doc that does your sport is worth their weight in gold bc they get it. Or I also try to see a PT whenever I visit a doc for an injury - just ask them if they will make a prescription for...

Also impressive is oldlarry's young whippersnapper acronym speak

I used a belt for a bit - this wee model and I liked it but yea- something about my shape that had it constantly high up on my waist which then pulled my shirt up-...

And that's way more water than i'd ever need. More about...
