I still dead-lift after knee surgery and some cartilage removal. I just make sure I have a week recovery for every three weeks lifting and I don't overdo it. And I wear a knee brace since my knee is not as stable as it should be.

god if my doctor told me that I would be crying in bed for days...then I would ignore him and do it anyway because I hate hearing the words "don't" or can't" lol but you must do what you must do to stay healthy. If anything working out can help your joints if done correct. Also diet is KEY to keeping joints healthy.

btw I had some knee pain a while ago. And I can say it was the lunges causing my knee pain. I would deadlift EXTRA in replace of lunges to help my knee. kind of ironic. I find squating more bothersome to knees

I don't do any exercise I wouldn't use in a typical day. I'm not lifting cars, I'm not deadlifting. Good knees and safe spine allow me to do what I really like to do and that's golf. To many members at my club can't walk 9 holes or up hills. I see the leg press with 500 pounds on it at the gym and it might as well be a Ferrari in a parking lot. Cool but useless.

I agree with Sarah. You can no longer say you have a fat ass if they fit in size 4 jeans. :)

Dead lift with proper form is just like lifting and carrying someone or something. All my lifting is strength for functional movements and rarely goes past 100% body weight.

I was deadlifting occasionally on my own (but not heavier than 75 pounds, alone) ... that I think I'll cut out. However, my primary deadlifting is weekly, with my trainer -- and we've moved up to 135 pounds. I feel the pain from that more in my trapezoids and deltoids, than I do in my knee. (Later on, and the next day)
I discussed the ortho recommendation with my trainer, and he doesn't understand why I should ditch the deadlifting, either.
The issue is that somewhere down the line I will need a knee replacement. I've already had an osteotomy to re-angle the knee, and to address how the left knee used to be bone on bone. I have hardware in that knee & femur.
I avoid high impact cardio, but I've been doing the dead lifting for at least six months, and my new X-rays show no change from those taken 17 months ago.
