You mentioned " well selected cyclic force applications can reduce this deterioration and possibly rehab them if you have the problem.

I don't have the typing skills to post adequately to it, but you need to know: 1) The role Synovium plays in: a) Lubricating the joint b)Nourishing and Repairing the joint tissue surfaces c)Reducing inflammation 2)The real mechanical forces to the specific joint surfaces in each ROM and how to use them to create safe cyclical compressive and decompressive reps that will cause Synovium to nourish joint surfaces 3)Methods for reducing Inflammations a)Warm-up and distributions of Synovium b)Nutritional and dietary means for making sure you have the building blocs to nourish the tissues, and anti-oxidants to curb inflammations. 4)Take joint conditioning and health into FULL consideration in your training program. If the joints are not " in shape " you will never get the system in top condition.
