BODYBUILDING SUPPLEMENTS High Quality Supplements For Bodybuilders and Athletes. www.ironmaglabs.com I want to start doing squats however my knees sometimes give me trouble. Would doing squats using a leverage squat machine be any easier on the knees than a using traditional barbell?

I never did squats because of bad knees since I was a teenager. I thought squats would be bad for my knees. Sine I started working my legs ( squats, leg ext, etc. ) all of my knee pain has disappeared.
