wmw999 2,351 #26 June 8 Good luck. Bone density issues do add to the problem. Look up things that can improve bone density at your age on the internet, in addition to calcium (which, if you have an indoor job, might also want some Vitamin D). The other thing I very strongly suggest is that before starting to jump again, you get in super good physical condition -- strength and flexibility should be excellent. That is just about always your best protection. Wendy P. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RolandForbes 44 #27 June 8 How do you know the difference between a skydiver and a speed flyer? A skydiver has a sore back, a speed flyer has a bionic one! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 615 #28 June 10 Muscle cramps can slow the healing process. May I suggest a physiotherapist, chiropractor or accupuncturist to help relieve muscle cramps? I have used all three to deal with my old knee, shoulder and spinal injuries. My accupuncturist is a former drop zone operator who jokes that he used to run a DZ to build up his future clientele. Ha ha! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
