Reply With QuoteOnly you can make this decision. If you can deal with the pain and think you can train go ahead.You`re the only one who knows what degree of pain you`re in. Personally I`d consult a physician.

I just had knee surgery in October to repair a torn patellar tendon. In my case curls are OK but extensions are OUT.
Too much sheer force on the tendon. Due to the original injury my knee cap wasn't tracking straight up and down correctly and it's still a bit out of whack. I'm OK to do all kind of presses and squats if I wear knee wraps to keep the knee cap in place. Like tjwes said, SEE A DOCTOR!!! My main problem came from putting it off too long and having tissue deterioration. You need to get it fixed. Also, form is of utmost importance. Allways, always, ALWAYS press with your heels. That takes the stress off your knees and puts it on your muscles.
Rules? You mean we have RULES for that???

DUDE ... if you're INJURED you could be out 2 or 3 MONTHS. Why not just skip a few.
