nice job on the squat PR man..

and ya, deeper you go, more stress on patella and more tension on that tendon, so it's pulling on that tibial 'tuberosity' pretty hard.


lolz I think u missed it said "RDL's" lol...I' dont think im setting any squat records with this knee thing ha.....so what do you reccmend to hit legs hard without messing it up?

lol yes, i did hahaha.. my bad..

well it's a tough one, but, you could try squatting a little higher but still sitting back properly, other than that, mostly p-chain dominant movements will keep it from flaring, rdl, ghr, goodmornings, etc.

going deep/parallel is definitely going to stress it pretty bad.. how do deadlifts feel?

pc
deadlifts and wide squats don't bother it bad as long as that its not inflamed from the workout or day before already....
and my deadlift is at 740 right now man.

Monday:
squats lighter then
hit lighter farmers (only went up to 220 no belt) but some good volumes

monday night
hamstrings curls
then leg press up to 585x10, 675x10, and 765x5...all real wide foot placement, and deep.
had to go easy a little for bump under knee.
and rdl's up to 475x2 or 3

tuesday morning
one of my brahs wanted to kill arms and since he killed legs the day before I met him up at the gym and got some gun training in...couldn't use real heavy weight because of the fast pace.

wednesday: woke up to 24" snow drifts on much of my 140ft driveway...lol....had to shovel alot of it for 2 hrs then strongman training
wide squats-takes some pressure off the OGS bump
135x10
135x10
225x20-not bad, they were non-stop and had more obviously in tank.
famers walk
105x200ft 1-turn
200x200ft 1-turn
335x80??ft...easy snow made it tougher tho, new record. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfYDjLYAqEE
tire drag
tire+55x 200ft-noticed snow made it easier
tire+345 atlas stonex 50ft...harder, but just couldn't get traction on snow/ice
tire+200 stone x200ft...good weight.
farmers+sled
105 a hand/ tire+ 200stone for 200ft, 1 turn.

surprised i had so much strenght after all that shoveling...the good part about it was my mom making me burgers twice to keep my protein intake up so I could keep shoveling...Usually I cook/prepare all my meals and some of hers!!

deadlifts
225x1
315x1-no leg drive from knee pain
405x1
495x1
585x1
675x1-easy, but too slow If i wanted to do 770, the problem is i have no leg drive (knee bump on left knee, can't get leg power) and my stimulants are not working today, prolly from carbing up too much. My strength is at its best but If i can't get leg power/ explosion then I can't get a big weight up.
strict press
135x10
185x8-new record2

took an hour break to eat

squats

350x2-horrible pain under knee stop immadiatley
RDL's
135x10
225x10
315x10
455x5-new record
then went to shoot around a bit, a bunch of people where there and wanted me to play so I decided to "try" to play with a big bump and 232 bodyweight, knee was not that bad actually, but I did try to avoid real hard sprints and max effort jumping.

the bump under knee seems to get more aggravated depending on the how much my knee is bent, the more it is bent (like in a deep squat) the worse the pain gets, and last for a while after doing a squat.
