I'm almost finished week 8 of my program - have worked out irregularly for past 20 years. I've noticed that all of my ligaments are now popping/snapping when I'm training. They don't hurt -you can just feel and hear them snapping. My thumb ligaments on both hands however, do hurt. Any suggestions out there?:(

See a physician. You might find that the popping you hear is gas being release from your joints. The painful thumbs could be ligaments, get it checked.

I just had a complete physical - am healthy - having worked in the medical field for 20 years, I'm pretty confident that it's a ligament problem - I'm thinking my diet is lacking something.......
