How do you prevent arthritis while lifting

[Big Eagle]

When I lift and take off for a day sometimes my joints ache like hell. I was wondering if it was pre-arthritis and if so how can I prevent it from getting worse...

there are a couple of threads on this...but you could try

fish/flax oil
adequan - do a search on this
cissus
chondritin MSM which i think is crap
some anabolics are better on joints then others.
