Thread: my pos knee

how about going to a doctor

Did that they suggested a cortizone shot now I got laid off and have no health insurance.And they put me on some anti flams

i should have said physical therapy, but if thats out of the question for now then I have no idea. Probably take some long time off, with long stretching everyday.

Yeah physical therapy is probably the best bet. If you can't do that, take it really easy on your leg days (keep them in shape while avoiding any more injury). Definitely don't go near your max. Slowly work your way back up and if it still hurts, go back down weight-wise.

You don't need to break parallel to develop or at the very least maintain good leg development. I would still stick to squats and go as low as you can without hurting or injuring yourself. I would also do deadlifts.

Maybe I will try to squat to a bench on the smith machine.It sucks because at one point in time my legs were my strongest point.If I did deadlifts wouldn't that put alot of stress on my knee still?Maybe sumo deads been along time since I even attempted deadlifts.I don't want to be like 75% of my gym all upper body and chicken legs

Bro I could not do squats for a long time because I have had over 3 full knee dislocations.

I found leg press was a great sub for squats.

If your on the gear side of things many people like deca for the joints, and hgh we all know is good but not something I am into.

But give the leg press a shot bro it really is nice on the knee.

Did legs today smith squats to a bench,leg press light reps 7 plates each side,and leg curls followed by 30 min on stationary bike.not much but knee is not hurting at all

its only when I go parallel it really screams
