Question #5: What's Something You Cringe at Regarding Hip & Knee 亚洲自慰视频?

Interviewer: Knowing what you know about hips and knees, you cringe a little when you see someone doing what?

Dr. Peters: Marathon running.

Interviewer: Really? Expand on that a little bit.

Dr. Peters: Well, that's not really fair, because, you know, if you look at it, marathon runners are usually super-fit.

So extremely high-impact, competitive athletics, I think, is very hard on your hip and knees

We have to accept that there are some risks in the things that bring enjoyment in life, and recreation's one of those things.
