Sup /fit/ I've got knee pain that hasn't gone away. I did lunges about 3 weeks ago, and the day after, my knees were sore, I wasn't too concerned. But it's been 2 weeks and they're still sore, they hurt when I run on them, right below the knee cap. Anyone ever gone through this? I'm seeing a doctor this week too.

Do you squat?
The biggest fixer for knee pain is looking at your feet. If your feet are pointed straight forward you're fucked.
>>35130066
Not really, I just do a lot of leg press and deadlifts. I do keep my feet pointed out when I leg press though, but keep my feet straight when deadlifting.
>>35130121
Quit doing legpress and squat.
>>35130121
Why the fuck would you leg press and not squat?
>>35130130
Why?
>>35130139
Get out. You deserve this knee pain.
>>35130038
You should rest untill the pain is gone, and start over with less weight. Better take it slow than go to a complete stop for a month

The squat is just a better exercise.
You know, the squat isn't just for your quads, there isn't a single part of your body not working when you do a proper squat.
There is literally no better exercise for total body strength, muscle development, and getting that growth hormone released naturally.

Not to mention his knees can move in tandem with his upper body.
>>35130139
Why not?
>>35130138
I'm a boxer, we don't have a squat rack in our gym.
>>35130149
Fantastic, well written advice.
>>35130176
Oh yeah, that's definitely what I'm doing right now.

>Isn't a single part of your body not working when you do a proper squat.
That sounds like B.S. How are my biceps and triceps worked in a squat? I get that squats are a fantastic lower body exercise, but I think saying it works the whole body is a little naive.
>>35130194
That's a good point, thank you.
>>35130247
lol you sound naive by not knowing that
>>35130355
he is a boxer kek, meme sport of the century

I'm always willing to learn, and I used to do powerlifting, believe it or not, but can you all show me evidence that squatting works out your biceps/triceps/all parts of your body?
>>35130408
I wouldnt go as far as to say it will train the biceps and triceps, or chest even. But how does it not train the rest?
>>35130440
I never said it did, that's what >>35130178
said. Which honestly sounds like B.S.
>>35130447
Use some common sense faggot, stop digging lol. What i want to know is why would you fucking leg press and not squat? What, is your boxing gym made for pussies?
>>35130458
We do leg presses, box jumps/lunges/step ups, but we just don't have a dedicated squat rack, so we don't squat with weights.
>>35130484
lol goddamn id quit that "gym"
>>35130490
I'm a little apprehensive about taking advice from someone who thinks squats work every part of my body, but, thanks.
