    Joints Crack, no pain

    I recently finished an EQ Prop cycle and am currently towards the end of my pct. During the cycle I noticed my shoulder/elbows and a few other joints cracking during weight lifting, especially during incline dumbell press. This is completely painless, although it does turn a few heads at the gym. This has only been most evident while on my cycle and still up until today. Could this be a result of my cycle, or... well, I don't know, just looking for some who share the same experiences. Any feedback would be appreciated.

    It could just be from the heavier weights. If you could have went that heavy naturally it will probably pop the same as it is now.

    popping/clicking

    was told by ortho surgeon that until the noises become very painful it is only the cartilage in the joint and nothing to worry about. I asked about once it becomes painful and he said it is very rare that you ever cross that bridge. Hope this helps...

    more than likely it just excess fluids in between the joints.
