really, it actually is... stay away from things that bug your knee, get in insane shape, progress very slowly with your training, and voila.
you are obsessed with a few things that could be really aggravating your knee, i've said many times, you have to let that addiction go.. i've seen some great jumps by you even in the face of this knee issue.
i know you can get healthy, just have to have fun with training, not do anything that aggravates, and focus on getting in shape/health as #1 priority.
peace
Raptor:
How would you define "in shape&healthy"?
Training just doesn't make sense to me right now... I'm so limited... I still can do a few things but they are probably limited at hip-isolated movements, I'm thinking straight leg deadlifts and 1-leg variants of those...
Slow running might actually make the knee thing worse... I probably need to get to the doctor again but I don't want to fucking tell me I need an MRI... I just need some basic rehab stuff for a possible ITB friction and do these... if it's the meniscus whatever... they can't hurt as much as maximal jumping can they?
When you think about it, even a dynamic warmup is damaging, knees to chest march and stuff like that... that's pretty intense for the right knee.
As for Enzo... I get very hardly impressed/happy about someone... I did for him. I really am a passive guy and pretty much a hater in essence... not with Enzo for some unknown reason I guess. I genuinely am happy for you man, hopefully you stay healthy. Usually when I say stuff like this is just "politically corectedness" when I don't really mean it so ... you know... it's genuine for you.

improving conditioning & moderate rep bodyweight exercises/lifts goes a long way towards improving health.. short sprints, 200's, 400's, light running, jump rope, lateral movements, submax jumps from all plants, bodyweight stuff, avoiding risky exercises etc.. improving overall fitness.

so you can't jump/sprint anymore without pain? i figured the pain in the knee was still mostly isolated to squatting, considering your recent bound videos and depth broad jump videos.

if maximal jumping feels fine then it's definitely something else.. if you do slow runs, do them on grass etc, nice and soft, lots of blood flow, lots of very light impacts.

if a dynamic warmup is really hurting the knee then man get that mri and get it figured out, thats if you have the right type of medical care.. if you don't, you'll have to do lots of light stuff to help rebuild/compensate to protect the knee.

To be frank, I'm kind of "afraid" of doing any "long distance" (>50m) sprints... I feel like my heart will blow up and die. I really think about that in my head. I've never had any resistance ever in my life... especially as I get drained of energy almost immediately because of nervous stuff (I get so "stressed" when I run that my energy just drains like rocket fuel).

I can sprint at high speeds without too much pain and I can jump maximally... it's just... weird. For the bounds, I only did them on the left leg, no right leg involvement. And yeah, I can do the depth jumps but there is pain.

That's just boring... slow runs? WTF? ;D I can't just go to the track and see other people (Nightfly etc) train while I "slow run"... drives me nuts. I mean, I feel like my life is meaningless and shit like that. I know, crazy, but I still think that. Lost time...
Now I know, you're going to say "yes but it's for your healing"... haven't ever been injured in my life... that's a hard concept to comprehend.

A dynamic warmup isn't "really" hurting the knee but it does hurt it. When I do the knees to chest jumps unilaterally as part of the warmup, it still is an unilateral jump and land... so that bothers my knee.
But enough about me, hopefully I can rebound like Enzo here :-*
