Osteoarthritis and running
https://journals.lww.com/acsm-
Recent literature adds to a growing body of evidence suggesting
that lower-dose running may be protective against the development
of osteoarthritis, whereas higher-dose running may increase one's
risk of developing lower-extremity osteoarthritis. However, running
dose remains challenging to define, leading to difficulty in
providing firm recommendations to patients regarding the degree of
running which may be safe.
Can even experienced orthopaedic surgeons predict who will benefit
