just a question for the older swimmers,how does swimming affect joints as we get older,i'm 37 and wonder what swimming does for or against joints as we age.The common point of view is that swimming is good for you,is this also true for bone joints?My reason for asking is that a while ago i used to do mainly breastroke until my knees got bad from this,been doing mainly freestyle for over a year i think now and my left shoulder now twinges from time to time.:confused:

I just wanted to add a thanks too, I have been down this "ouch" road too often. I am happy that I am not the only one!
Then I think that Natalie Coughlin has some of the same "ouch" and revameped her strokes --or so was the stories reported at the Olympics. Thanks for the input.
